How many miles are you up to now? I am jealous of the amount of riding you do. Any reason you always park with your wheel to the right?

The bike is at 42,376 something, so I'm at about 12,345 for the season, on it and I've got another 1,500 I think it is, on the Night Rod too.

I lean the bike over on the kick stand, turn the bars to the right, and step off to the left. I've been doing that way since I started riding. I occasionally turn the other way, when the road angle determines it, or I lock it.

Default Holiday weekend, over.

The wife and I finished up the holiday weekend with a little ride. We got lunch at new place, then finished up with some wine for her....I ain't no dummy.



The Broken Chimney.


The Mississippi.


Big biker.


Glamour shot.


Wine stop.


She brought home 4 bottles.


I ended up with 1216 miles over my 5 days off. Only three days were truly ride days.

Haven't had any real wind therapy in awhile, due to taking a family vacation, but today after work was a different story. It felt so good.

I need to get down that way, not sure it will happen this year though... see what I can squeeze in.
New grandchild coming any day and my youngest daughter is getting married next month.
At least I got the ride to my fathers in early this year or it might have got cancelled.

I go to Yakima first from North Central WA, and once I'm in Yakima the ride only takes a couple of hours. It's getting to Yakima in 100 degree heat that sucks!
