A Long and Winding Road

This day [OK last weekend], somewhere in Northern Victoria, you would have found:

One Man
One Motorbike [1999 Vulcan Drifter 1500]
At peace with the world
Just Drifting along.
Today I ride, tomorrow I work.

Pretty much the last time I had the Drifter out, I put about 50 miles on it. That was last weekend. The weather here is getting uglier every day. I changed the oil in the W today, and because it's 55 deg. now, I had to go and take a ride. I almost didn't take a camera, but you guys swear it didn't happen if there's no pictures. I have the front fender off the Drifter for a little more paint work.....They are promising rain tomorrow, rain on Sunday, and possibly snow on Monday...

Well, yesterday I drove the cage for the first time since May.  It was kinda weird!  I was moving, but there was no wind!  Had to open the window to feel at home!  Wife wouldn't let me take out the T-tops though...... 8)

We had about 2 inches and still have most of it.   It was 18F this morning, a bit CHILLY.  Barring an Indian summer, I'm done - of course now there's salt and brine all over the road.

We had an inch if snow this morning, but it melted right off by noon.  Went riding to the store in the afternoon and on the ride home there were a few flakes falling.  Getting chilly too!

No riding in these parts going on for me . With the cold weather hanging around as well as wind just no fun to ride . I ride more for  enjoyment  then transportation reasons . To me riding with sub zero gear is meant for woods riding , now that's fun  ;) One of these days when time allows I'll get my last ride in though picking the scoot up from the shop to give her the winter cleaning and added mods ideas  ::) For all those still riding enjoy and be safe .

I've gotten a few rides in lately. It snowed the other day and the weather people were talking like it wasn't going to warm back up. Had one day that would have been nice except for the wind. It was blowing 34 mph gusting 50 mph. It's always windy here, especially during storms where it can gust over 70 mph, but that was pretty crazy for a warmer sunny day. Now they're calling for it to get colder and stay that way. See if they're correct this time.

Well, I probably got the last decent ride in yesterday.  It got up to 60F, so the wife and I headed out for the afternoon.  The weather guesser is calling for up to 1/4" of snow Tuesday.

Troll, that's a great pic with the bridge- I like it.

It was chilly here today, I think it got as warm as 54, but really windy.  I  had too many chores to do, and had to get them done so I could go this evening to see Dad in the hospital.  When I was in town for a couple things, (in the truck) I saw about 20 bikes, though, gathered at the restaurant- they were just leaving when I pulled through.  I was told at the hardware store that there were about 70 just before that.  COLD day for a ride like that with that much wind.....

I hate seeing that white stuff in those pics.... Just keep it up there for a few more weeks if you don't mind!  It's supposed to get in the teens (F) next week.  bah humbug.

45 degrees. Windy, cloudy, nasty, but no snow...yet. Here's a couple of views of our Mississippi bridges you don't often see. I'm taking every chance I can get to ride. They are saying mid 20's over night, and a Monday high of 31....
