Did a bit of yard work today, decided to reward myself with a ride to dinner. I was solo as the wife was out the ladies.


Cane's did the trick.


A few bonus miles, after dinner, was in order.


Cane's is about 20 miles from my house.

 

9am, 72 degrees, with a clear blue sky.


Ready for a full ride day.....its been a while since I've done one of those.


3 hours in, break time.


Surprise.


I wandered up into the driftless area of Wisconsin.


I had to go 150 miles to find a road I hadn't been on.


3pm....another break.


Changed it up a bit.


This was along the Wisconsin River, on Hwy 60.


6pm...when in Rome.


Fueling up, back in Illinois, putting on my (Dad's) jacket, and switching to my clear glasses.


Pit stop.


12 hours of glorious bliss.

 

Nice ride.

 

Today I needed just a bit of wind therapy.


When your daughters call you, from school, and say "You're going to mad".....the frustration is instant.

Turns out they just needed a new battery in their car, but walking them through the process was a bit taxing....lol.

 

Needed to run to Rockfalls and grab oil and a filter for the Limited.


Took a detour home.....of course.


You can't tell, but it was a pretty windy day. 82 and low humidity was a plus.


I could have rode for hours and hours.


I had a retirement party to go to, so this had to do.

 

What year is the V-Rod and how many miles do you have on it?

 

It's a 2007, with about 29,000 miles on it.

 

You have some nice riding in your area. I have to ride thru NYC just to get to the twisties. Long Island has a few but that's also expressway riding for an hour to get there. I'm near Jones Beach so theres that but, it's gett'in old.

 

Washed it, late yesterday afternoon.


Ran some local errands today.


May have gotten side tracked.

 

100 miles to get the chores done… Nice… My Harley travel mug finally gave up the ghost after seven years… gonna ride up to the shop this morning and buy me a new one…
