once i left the church it was a half mile ride to m-39, i took m-39 south taking it easy cause it is a known speed trap with a 55mph speed limit though most are doing 65mph or more. seeing i got a later start i stayed on the expressway and took I-94 west then I-275 south, the folks on I-275 don't play around an are always doing 75mph plus. i was cruising along at 75mph when some guy on a harley dresser went flying by. i didn't try and catch him i just wanted to keep him in sight so i stepped it up to 80mph. we both ended up going south on I-75, i lost sight of him but spotted him again on I-280. i wanted to take the turn pike to make sure that my I-pass was working and there he was again, he ran that harley hard getting on I-80 but it was a waste of time. the Mighty ST 1300 reeled him in and walked by him at 85mph, he didn't want to play catch up so that was the last i saw of him. i exited the turn pike at the route 53 so i could go into port clinton a different way. i made a few stops while there 20200823_112156.jpg20200823_112221.jpg20200823_112824.jpg20200823_113116.jpg20200823_113354.jpg

leaving the park i made a right turn on the first paved road i saw, that got me on front street in toledo. i took front street to main street looking for a mural but didn't see it so once i got out to us-24 i made a right turn and headed for michigan. i had 234 miles on the north end of monroe, mi. so i stopped for gas and a cold drink, it was just some green tea but it was ice cold and felt good going down in all the heat. i picked up I-275 and headed north for I-94, M-39 and home. a 272 mile day

Well now, if you had shown me pictures of the 'towers' to the entrance to Camp Perry you would have made my trip down memory lane complete! Thanks for sharing!

hi there, curious how you use your fuel cell, do you:
-open the valve after 50mi?
-keep the valve open all the time?
