Where did you ride today?

Finished bleeding the brakes on the FJR and did a 150 mile test ride over Guanella Pass. (11669 ft). Left the house at 07:30 and was back at 11:00 hrs. Did not take any pictures. Pictures shown are from my file pictures of a previous ride. Guanella is one of my favorite short morning rides.

And with the proper red side panels and Gowing seat?

178 mile ride today......visited the ST1100 guru John O........He's had a few medical and personal set backs the last few years but he always has a great attitude and I enjoyed our talk about friends, family, and the future......made my day! Thanks John.....Russ.

It was great to see you, Russ! Thanks, made my day.

[major surgery Friday, should be routine but you all say a prayer anyway. Tks]

Warm regards, John
 
Went to the shops for supper Ingredients. Pleasantly surprised by how much the top box can hold.

Came back the more twisty way, haven't had much chance to ride my ST with chasing carb gremlins in my CBR and work being tough for both me and the partner. Slowly getting more comfortable with leaning it over and got to practice a few brisk, unforeseen stops. Haven't got the knack of wheelies and stoppies yet.

Finally got out this morning in spite of how muggy it was. Not yet as bad as it will get later today. Only rode 30 miles but wanted to burn the cobwebs outta the exhaust.

Hoping to do at least the same tomorrow... early morning.

All’s well, my friends. It went very well, now for the recovery. Thanks for the well wishes, both known and unknown. I felt it, very much appreciated.

Regards, John [trying very hard not to cough, sneeze, or even clear my throat! 😱🥴😓😵‍💫😜😫🥺😩😳🫨]
 
Was able to get out for a few hours this morning. Chose the NT1100 to fool around in the foothills. No place in particular to ride to, just have fun in the back curvy roads. Stopped to put my liner on at Tiny Town and took a couple of pictures. Was a great ride today as there was no traffic crossing the city, nor in the hills. Left the house at 0700 and got at 10:30. 110 miles. See Map.

See, that’s what happens when you you look at a bike display at a music festival. We saw Jelly Roll at Summerfest Saturday. They had a Harley display there. Mama has a new ride.
