It was a sudden eruption of Spring here - from a month of 20 to 50 degrees and 8" of rain in one week with flooding, to sunny and 65 F in the north shade last night when I left work at 17:30. After a little tinkering and final adjustments, I managed to get in 40 miles of riding around the back woods of Norfolk and up into Southfield, MA, over through Canaan Valley, then burned some burgs on the grill just after sunset. First ride since the December entombment. 6 more long days to a motorcycle vacation in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
