Another Day

Riding today is an experience - the temp is up there around 90 and the wind is 25 to 35 with gusts up to 50 mph. I always wear full gear to the temp is a little bit of a problem - the vents don't help much at this temp. The wind will be interesting riding home tonight - probably will be less affected than the big SUVs.

Starting to think about my trip down to Arkansas Ozarks and getting my saddle bags and sissy bar bag out - leaving on 6/23 & returning on 6/30. Will meet my son, do a little riding, camping, and canoeing. This will be like nirvana.

I have been riding for about 15 years and there is nothing like heading out on the highway. Such a high. At the beginning and end of the trips I am by myself and then with my son. Without a definite schedule, we can do what we want when we want. The weather has never been much of a problem, although I have invested in much better rain gear than I started out with - very important.

Happy trails to you, and hope you get a lot of whatever gives you a natural high.
