I always check the thread before I head out for a day on the chance it'll be mountain, snow, river or lake in the middle of fucking nowhere type target. I hate riding in town and do just enough to get my ass up in the hills.

I had the big body of water one a couple weeks ago but by the time I got home it had been snagged. Last week the WR was down while I split the cases and fixed the infamous 5th gear issue with a new 3rd and 5th pinion gear and the center shift fork.

Unrelated, I just like the pic.

So like, a 10 mile radius?

I just passed 450 barns on my ride today...from early 1800's to new million dollar equestrian estates

I'm only half way done...I'll see if I can grab some roadkill (if I want to stop in the middle of the road). Already passed a large snapping turtle (alive) crossing the road...

That pic is hilarious!

It's unusual to see roadkill deer or moose left on the side of the road around here unless you witness the crash. I suspect that if the driver doesn't take it to salvage some of the meat, then someone else does before the car that hit it leaves.

I had to turn around and go back to get the pic. Was out running errands on the bike and keeping an eye out for roadkill.

I can't believe I didn't check this thread today. Just got back from a 300+ mile ride. I probably could have found some AAA somewhere (probably at a VFW Post).

It was a little warm today:

But I figured I would run into some rain (and I did here and there) so I wore the Aerostich. Comfortable enough while rolling.
