Had my girl out yesterday at last, was 52 and sunny. Still chilly but did 25 miles. Big Grin
Only the 2nd time out on the Ohlins, they do help smooth the nasty roads out here a bunch.

It sure did!!!
Even out here with no where to go, I still need to ride.
Riding in loops gets old quick, but I can't live without a bike.

today I will ride the loop this way, tomorrow I will ride the loop backwards and see new scenery ROFL

Feel bad for ya Ack. Motorcycles are made for going someplace and not just in circles. understand your need though.. I do.

Heading out for another 20, we'll see how different things look compared to yesterday in the reverse direction.
Since I've covered the island twice already his year, I'll have to hit the dirt tomorrow!

That looks like the perfect bike for here, maybe next year..... I went out to Don Allen's got my sticker and did the Sconset loop, filled the tank and headed out to Surfside, that totaled 23, very enjoyable miles. Going to keep the CB here for the summer then take it to the Cape in the fall, I can only do the loops so many times. You have to ride the beemer over here to get your shirt.
