Passing through as I'm the proverbial hold trying to locate a part.
A balmy 89*.

Late afternoon pass thru. Rode by myself down to the National Cemetery to visit my friend. Left him a can of Coors Light and had a little talk with him. Thanked him for his service, wished him well, and told him to enjoy his beer. Been doing this since 2010. Haven't missed a year yet. Was a pretty warm day, and had a good ride down and back. About 120 miles round trip. Good roads and plenty of time to think and contemplate things.
Hope you all had a good day as well. And hope that our sick, injured, and ailing heal up quickly. Thoughts and Prayers for you all.

that’s impressive Chris good job. Hope she knows there is no shame. There’s only two kinds of riders. Those who have a bike fall over and those waiting for it to happen
