Maybe find a smaller daily rider like an NC 700 or something... not sure on this resolution yet
Visit S Dakota and N Dakota on the ST (2 of the 6 states I need, to have ridden in all of the lower 48 states)

Resolution 1: It's half way thru the year and I'm at a little over 10,000 miles so I may make this one
Resolution 2: Halfway thru the year and I'm at 161 so on track
Resolution 3: Attended Rally in Kentucky and had a grand time, looking forward to W Va next year
Resolution 4: This one got derailed thanks to the demise of my ST, but I did buy another bike, but it's not any smaller lol
Resolution 5: I'm supposed to be there this week as a matter of fact, but knee issues and the ST issue forced me to cancel the trip. Bummed about that, was looking forward to riding in N&S Dakota and crossing 2 more states off the list. Maybe next year.
Well my resolutions are looking iffy.
1st: Did not make N or S Dakota. So, FAIL on that resolution
2nd: I'm at 18,053 miles as of yesterday. In order to make goal of 20,000 I need 1947 miles in next 6 weeks, an average of 47 miles a day, every day. This one might be tough depending on weather
3rd: I've ridden 254 days so far. In order to make goal, since I took today off due to ice & snow, I need to ride every day the rest of the year. (really could have used the 36 days I had to take off with the broken arm lol, other wise I'd only need 10 more days to make that goal). This one might be tough too depending on weather.
The smaller bike thing: Since I blew up my ST 1300 and had to replace it with a new two up sport tourer I put off buying another smaller motorcycle. However I now have a CB500X in the garage belonging to my nephew in Nevada that I can ride anytime I want. So no need for me to buy a small run around bike.
I did make the Kentucky rally, so at least made that resolution.
