- July 03, 2014, 15:10:05 PMWell, it's finally "Summer" here...went down to 45 deg. over night......Hmmmm. ANYWAY. I went out for a ride with my new jacket on, just because. I like it a lot, and I made the 180 lbs. this morning!!! Took a few pictures here, and there. Usually this weekend is a big deal for the camp sites and recreation stuff. We have a thing called "RiverFest", which is another excuse to go down by the river and get drunk, just like "OctoberFest"...I avoid BOTH, and all the little drunk fests in between. Here's a few pics. of the Mighty Mississippi, messing with the "FEST"...and the camp grounds. About half the camp sites are under water, and all the parks/beaches are closed...I can hardly wait to hear them whine about the lost revenue..except for the bar owners, who will do well.

I'll have to make a note of that.Tomorrow is the annual "Ride For Dad" for the fight against prostrate cancer, forecast is calling for a nice sunny day so that is my plans for tomorrow, and I will take pictures......lots of them.......
BTW, since the winter storage/teardown starts this evening, what are your planned mods this year? Have to enhance that "riding season" as much as possible so you can get the most out of it, huh?

Hope you have good weather for the ride; you too, Troll. Anything to honor the Vets is a good thing....good weather or bad; good weather so much the better....

Took the wife out for supper last night, to a place called "Windy Point", about a half hour ride. Took Frankenstein, as the Drifter only has a solo seat. Weather was warm, so not much riding gear, leather jacket, fingerless gloves, helmet without the side curtain. Wife was all geared up, chaps, jacket, gloves, helmet(open face) etc. Coming home, about 5 minutes in to the ride, it started to rain. That didn't last long, because it then started to pour; the old "up-ended bucket" kind of pour. That didn't last too long either, because it then added a generous portion of hail in to the mix. Rained and hailed so hard, was down to about 30 miles an hour; no place to pull over, so just kept going. Finally got home at around 6:30 pm, hung up the jeans, wrung out my socks, (literally) and headed for the tub. Not one of my better "spring rides". Has anyone ever noticed how much hail hurts on the face?
