26-27 May 2023 Long ride, short time. Also, have to admit, it actually turned out to be two days and change, in order to take a little edge off of day one we headed out after work the night before. Made it over the river and through a few woods to give a little...

4 Dec 2022 What will today bring? Sad to leave good friends to be sure, unfortunately do have to get home. First stop: high cotton! I remember seeing fields like this for the first time many years ago traveling from Mississippi to Georgia, I had no idea what the plants looked like so it...

3 Dec 2022 Wonderful visit with my cousin. Talked and talked, so much fun to catch up. We have not been close over the years then finally reconnected. Definitely have to stop back soon. Just look at that spread for breakfast – including some fun :-). Turns out it was a picture rich day...

2 Dec 2022 Coffee on, ready to go! Burrr! I don’t mind a cool ride, but this might be a little much. Rough to have to look at that nice warm kitchen from out here :-). The old girl cranked a little hard for sure, be warmed up soon enough I suppose. First order...

1 Dec 2022 Bit little late in the year for a long ride but hey, go for it right?! Needed a little work before leaving. Tires, brakes, oil change, normal maintenance. Rides sooooo much better on the new rubber! Pretty impressed that how evenly the brake pads were worn, perfectly matches the feel for...

12 Sep 2021 Well, final travel day we should be home this evening. Let’s see what we find. The first half will be new territory, as we get closer landscapes will become more familiar. I find this bit of art to be so magnetic. Then, the more you look the more you find. So...

11 Sep 2021 Well, goooood morning! Just look at that wonderfulness on the screen!!! Really liking this bit of Kentucky, just a short way down the road today :-). Is this why it takes twice as long to get anywhere? So be it! Gauley Bridge is a cute little town, with a nice park...

10 Sep 2021 Rise, shine, and get on the road! Of course, but what about breakfast? We’re deeeeep in the country – can we find a place? What’s this Shotgun Eddys on the map? We pull up, and yep, it’s open, another couple park next to us in the lot. We strike up a...

9 Sep 2021 On we go… Plan for today is to cross Missouri and the southern tip of Illinois. Before all that, let’s see if we can find some breakfast? Oh, look at this, another success for sure. I’ve been watching the tires as we go and there’s a problem – not enough rubber!...
