Default Just got back from a 110 mile ride

The weather finally was nice enough ( no ice on the roads ) so I took out the ZR1100 for a ride. It was 42* when I left at 9 am.

I wandered over to Rt 212 and took that to Rt 611 at the river between PA & NJ. That's just south of Reigelsville,PA. Went north on Rt 611 above Easton to Martins Creek and then to Riverton,PA across the bridge to Belvedere NJ to drop off a couple of brake pistons for one of my friends who has "a few" triples. 54.8 miles one way from my house.

On the way over, I saw exactly six cycles ( ok 4 cycles and two scooters but at least the scooter riders were wearing proper gear unlike mr goldwing who waved with his coffecup in his hand ). I guess the cool weather along the river made the fair weather riders stay home.

I came back the same way and only saw about 15 cycles even though the temps had climbed to upper 60s.

I have to wash the cycle now as it's covered in grime but it was well worth it.
