Still waiting on backordered parts for her Ryker.

I can ride Saturday. Maybe 3090 to 30 to Yankees for a burger

This was a good ride. We got lost a couple of times. These Google maps ain't worth a chit. Lots of omitted details and ill placed intersections

Looks like the next 2 days are prime to get some miles in. Let's go...

We have had two weeks of awesome weather here in the SC low country but very hot temps for May. The other day it was over 100DF and 99 today! Wow, I rode but that huge radiator really puts out some heat.

Navigation the old fashion way. This is how Dr.D does it and he has never gone lost. I need one of those things quarterbacks wear on the arm with the plays.

Looks like its going to be a low 80s Saturday. Have you gotten you road appetite back yet? Today AM it was like a fall day. 80 and 70% humidity, clear. Sat watching Muller stumble all day, then took a beer siesta. Looking at the lawn, it needs a cut. Looking at the bike, it needs a ride. The rear rubber is almost ready for a change. Gota do that before Leakey.

I carry a paper map as a back-up and use a dry-erase marker to write turn-by-turn directions, notes or intersections of interest on my mirrors in between gas stops...

I just love mapping trips, it’s a great puzzle exercise. Sometimes I use satellite views to see the roads and intersections a day ahead of time memorizing markers of turns. You all have a great time and remember if you still have gas you ain’t really lost.
