Hello all, yesterday I rode 150 miles. At the intersection of routes 22 N and 23 east and west there was a sign noted 23 W was closed to follow detours. I thought about and turned west on rt 23 in eastern NY.
The detours sucked twice I went in circles till I finally got to the Taconic Park way in eastern NY. I left at 10:30 am and returned at 3:30pm. It was mainly in the mid eighties for temp. Today I'm exhausted. I will be 69 Aug 19. But I still ride almost every day. I'm retired.
STAY SAFE AND HAPPY RIDING!!

Cool I'm still working and been raining almost every time I'm off. Just found my best friend from 30+ years ago that I used to ride with all the time. We used to put on miles, no bar hopping here just on the bikes all day except a stop for food or to check out something cool. Looks like it may be nice on Monday so maybe I'll get a chance to get a similar ride in. I have been out but just local short hops. Only question is, do I ride the Harley or the new America? Unfortunately probably the Harley, I am still making the new Triumph what I want and need to put the right front wheel on it, remove the air box, put the pipes on and jet the carbs. I cut the tapered end off a set of pipes and gutted them except for the reducer cone over the last couple days. They are like the ones on my SM. British customs air box kit this time, the Freak was out of stock. $300 for pods, jets, and simple brackets!! I just didn't want to take the time to make the brackets.


I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.
Eat right ,Exercise ,Stay fit, Die Anyway!
