This years Men 's Fall Trip is 6 days riding the curves in central Kentucky with day loops based out of Berea. My brother FZ-1, my son FZ-1, my sons FIL ST 1300 and myself on my CB 1100 are this years participants. This is our 6 th annual fall trip. I will have to fill in the pics after I get back next weekend, but will give the narrative.
Day 1 dawned overcast and cool..well cold really. 46 degrees. I didn't dress warm enough. I think my new Fox Creek leather and old blue jeans are good down to say ..oh, 60 degrees on a naked bike lol. We pulled out at 9 am headed east along the Ohio river then crossed the river on the ferry into Kentucky. That was followed by 160 miles of curves down thru the horse farms and hills in n/e Kentucky. Of particular note was 19, 62, 1504, 627, and 89. The sun finally came out and the temperature climbed to 63, still cool but almost comfortable. We pulled into the hotel 6 hours later. An amish restaurant at the next exit down provided an excellent dinner. Now we are hunkered down for the night. Total miles for Day 1 was 190.
