Northern Va Ride II

[Norwegian Blue]

 

Really, you come in here to post once in a blue moon, and it's not even about motorcycles? And it's even about promoting people to not ride motorcycles! Outrageous! Turncoat!

I rode my motorcycle 50 miles today.

(and my bicycle 22 miles, including hill reps for almost 2,000 feet of total gain)

Sadly, no aerobic stuff yet today, but did get to ride:  






Edited to add:  Aerobic activity completed.  Total elevation not noted.

Total elevation today -70k feet.
Sigh - long day trips leave no time for nothin.

Walk the airports, my friend.  Walk the airports. . ..

I must ride Theo to Morton's on Saturday morning for service.  Leaving about 7:15 AM.  Anyone want to experience I95 in the rain?  

Dot flew to Huntsville for business last Sunday.  She was supposed to return this coming Sunday.  Now she is returning a week from Friday.  This sucks.

I get to monitor an MSF class -- no riding for me. . ..  

Sorry to hear you are flying solo -- but then again, I suppose it is good to be busy.  

[DrD]

I hope the MSF class went well.  My ride to Morton's went fine.  Looked at gear, bikes, the usual.  The ride back was 3.5 hours of rain: Sprinkling, moderate, pull-off-I-can't-see.

Not seeing is no fun.  Good idea to pull off and wait a bit. . ..  

Given that Morton's was involved, can't believe that a new bike acquisition was not made. . ..  

Interesting how things come full circle -- I'm at a class with a company started by Maximus (remember him, Dave?), last posted here about 5 years ago. . ..  

[Joey Stalin]

I remember watching him point the front wheel of his Ducati skyward.  

Were you taking the class or teaching the class?

[hovmaven]

Take one, watch two, then 80 hours instruction course in Richmond. . ..  

I think he's in these pics:




With Duck and Ezra:

Huh.

Who knew Joey was an extra in Tron?

[hovmaven]

He's a man of many talents. . ..  

 

[Joey Stalin]

I hate that picture.

Blue, those in glass houses...

Blue, those in glass houses...

Should dress in basement?

 

[hovmaven]

I think he may be referring to the colorful ricky racer bicycling spandex you may be sporting. . ..

Dot and I have bought our airplane tickets for July.  It started out as only a trip to Scotland.  Then Dot said, "Can we avoid Heathrow?"  I did some checking and found out we could get to Scotland via Paris.  Then Dot said, "Can we spend a few days in Paris?"  

So, it is Paris for a few days, then NE Scotland for a few days.  

Far, far better than Huntsville, where Dot is -- again -- for two weeks.  

I am off to Morton's tomorrow morning.  Anyone else headed that way?

[hovmaven]

There is a b'bque ride to eat in Gordonsville -- arrive at 12 noon.  Anyone interested?  I suppose I could route through Morton's. . ..  

[Joey Stalin]

Where is the thread on that?
