Saturday ride

[the Ferret]

Got in nice little 150 miler with perfect weather. Met my brother early on his FZ-1 and we headed to a Perkins Rest for breakfast. Corned Beef hash, scrambled eggs, hash brown potatoes hot tea with crème and sugar. mmmmmm


but on the way there we saw this sign

100 yards away we spotted this

Don't think I will hire him lol

anyhow after breakfast we hit some nice country roads. Rode around until 1 pm and headed for this restaurant that is known for their home made pies, called the Country Inn in Georgetown Ohio

Decided to skip lunch and just have some tea and pie

Decisions, decisions..they make a killer triple layer orange cake that tastes like a Creamsickle, or chocolate cake, banana crème pie, chocolate crème pie, peanut butter crème pie, cherry pie, or Coconut crème pie, Made fresh daily by one of the owners Grandmothers. Perfect crust, thick sweet wonderful filling and topping. To die for.

I chose the coconut creme, and brother chose the banana crème. Plus a couple cups of tea.

After pie we went outside. We needed to ride more, but all I wanted was a nap lol

anyhow back on the bikes and down Rt 221 a nice snaky road that goes from the first river ridge, back down to the river about 11 miles away I think. Then west on 52 back towards home.

Started out at 54 degrees but got to 77 degrees under a beautiful sunny blue bird sky. What a great day.

What a fine day for a ride with sunny skies and mild temps. And my oh my, those pies, Mmmmmm!

Cheers

LMAO Those are lagering tracks on that bobcat. They weigh about 300 pounds each I have a set. As you can see very unstable on uneven ground. Looks like you had a nice day with your son.

 

[Pauley]

Sounds like a great day!

 

[gary_imp]

woohoo looks fun ferrett. Glad everyone was safe.

 

[Ridem32_imp]

What about grits with those eggs ???? Got to have grits ! Looks like y'all had a great time. Glad the weather was nice. It's very nice here about 92 here today I love summer! Also we got to get them gaiters on. I got the gaiters on my new bike tonite. This set was a lot faster and easy. It's really not that much to unbolt and bolt back on. Thanks for the post and pics of your nice ride

Looks good Ferret. I enjoy your posts and photos.

Is that a dirty great lock in the back wheel?

I'm going to look it up, but for the folkers in the audience who are too lazy, what the tuck is "lagering?"

Highlight "lagering tracks", press right mouse button, select <Search Google for "lagering tracks">. See many offerings for things to do with beer. Ponder the question "Did you mean: loegering tracks?"

Yes, Loegering Tracks
There made of either rubber or steel and are an optional track put on 4 wheel skid steer machines. Used for better traction in mud or loose dirt conditions. Thanks for the correction.

Thanks for telling us about them. I read a little bit; it was quite interesting.

Nice outing. Always enjoy your trip photos!

Mmmm love grits with butter and sugar. They aren't offered up here much and because nobody eats them but my family ( we got used to them when we lived in Florida) if you do order them they make them out of instant grits..YUK!

What is a dirty great lock? There is nothing in my back wheel that didn't come from Honda.

 

[emptysea]

Great pics. Next time I'm down there we'll make a pie run.

 

[Ridem32_imp]

I know it's hard to find grits up north! I just had to ask lol. Some people up north never even had grits!!

Oh! Silly me. In the first photo of the two bikes parked, there's a shadow towards the bottom of the rear wheel. Looks like it might be one of those enormous security chains you see in Europe. (Dirty great = big). But look again, Cormanus. Really closely this time. Ah! It's the Ferret's black helmet hanging on the number plate mount.

Hope I didn't alarm you, Ferret.

 

[Ridem32_imp]

You can see they kinfolk both got helmets hanging from rear of bikes. And both bike makers spent millions making the helmet holder lol

 

[the Ferret]

Lol no alarm. yea everyone in our family uses the helmet guardian helmet locks that bolt on the rear license plate bracket. They are a lot easier to use than the factory helmet locks and you don't have to worry about bending your ignition key.
