A couple Fridays a month (May - Oct) two buds and I will head out
for a lunch ride, usually a 400 - 500 mile day.
From Kittery to Fort Kent, or from Bar Harbor to NH / VT border can be viewed
in a pleasurable day ride.
When my wife and I have a day off together we also venture off
on extended rides....
We have been known to ride into Vermont to sample hot wings,
burgers, brisket, pulled pork, and homemade iced tea.

Squeezing out a few hours a couple of times a month to a breakfast or lunch which is about 100 miles round trip is it for me.
I live in South Florida, so an Inter-coastalA1A ride or a ride to Lake Okeechobee works. Would like to ride more, but kids come first...
Looking forward to an over nighter, but none planned.

My dad and i rode to Yellowknife, NT this summer the last half of July. We went up through Alberta and back down through British Columbia. This trip was right around 5300 miles in 9 days. Awesome trip except the only reason we went up that far was because my dad seen the HD insignia in the HOG book. I put 11,800 miles on my bike this first year i've owned it. Gotta love it! I'm guessing i won't put that many miles on this year but one never knows, planning on a southern Utah trip this summer.

Mom has a place at Floral City on the lake, just north of tampa.coworker has daughter that moved down by you and is working at hospital.On trips aroound 1500 to 2000 Mi. I allow enough days that I can ride 400-500Mi. if I want or not.Wife always asks me , when will you be back. I tell her when you see my flat but pull back in the lane. HA!!
