Today's ride was to the Cascade lookout in Manning Park, 435.7 kilometers round trip.
Where did you ride today?

We have a Monday night meet and dinner for our motorcycle group. I rode to that, no pics though. But earlier, a neighbor brought over his latest restoration project and I did get a pic of it.

The museum there has a very large collection of WW2 hardware and some excellent videos. I just can imagine what the troops(in all sides) went through during this time. Very sobering.

Just took a small 102 miles ride into the foot hills to just burn some miles and twist some twisties. Two and a half hours of fun and smiles. Rode the V-Strom 650 today, hope to get out tomorrow in the NT1100

Rode down to Sprucewood to see if the restaurant was open. Guess not. The NT got the call minus the panniers and top box. 101 miles round trip.

Yesterday's ride to Duffy Lake took way longer than expected as highway 12 is closed to through traffic,land slide. So ended up going through Cache Creek which adds a couple of hours to my ride. 700 + kilometers . Started at 9 am,got home at 9:45 Pm, as I was walking back from the Shed it started raining. Was a great time, except for the traffic jam on the highway in town, left hand still stiff today from a hour of parking lot stop and go, ugh.

That demanding yet persuasive wife Jill, told me today that I should not cut the grass. We go should go for a ride instead. What a slave driver. 98 miles, some lunch and some ice cream. I am back at home looking at the grass. 
The perils of a naked bike.
Lots of bug guts.

It's a beautiful bike! I love the white. 
The helmet...meh. 
I figured the reason we hadn't seen you post today, was you were enjoying your new toy. Nice to have a wife who you can share the experience with.

Yeah, I cut the grass.
That helmet looks familiar. I let a wet towel sit on mine for all day to soften the bug juice after returning from ArkanSTOC. That is the only downside to a naked bike IMO. But better than having bug guts on both the helmet visor AND the shield... which I've had happen more than I like. Yet you don't really have a totally naked bike. At least that splat wasn't dead center on the visor obscuring vision for both eyes!

I rode my NX500 around some of the lakes and rivers here in northeastern Oklahoma. I got in 185 miles.
PC1 was beautiful. Just over 550 miles for the day.
