Ride to Work Day

Get up and ride on the 16th!!!

Where have we ridden…so far

So far…. We have the intention of putting a bunch of miles down this riding season. Neither my wife nor I have been to Nigeria Falls and that is on the schedule this summer. From the “Falls” we want to cut across Canada to Michigan and Wisconsin with a stop at the Harley Davidson Museum. After that we will either head back to VA or visit our daughter in Kanas.

That is my plan for at least one long  motorcycle ride…let’s hope it happens.

Short ride to Harpers Ferry

My wife, Debbie, and I rode our longest ride, to date, on our new bike. We rode the long way to and from Harpers Ferry, WV on our 2011 Harley Davidson Electra Glide Ultra Classic Limited (FLHTK). From our home outside Leesburg, VA we put on just under 100 miles to and from Harpers Ferry.

Harpers Ferry is a very historic little town. The armed struggle for the abolition of slavery started here. Check out Wikipedia for the detail

The bike rode well but we are still trying to figure out the intercom system. At first we could hear nothing but music, then I could hear Debbie but she could not hear me (although she said that was the way it should be). In the end we could hear the music and each other but our voices did not turn of the music and sounded like we were talking through tin cans connected with string.

Also, we should get a round of thanks from everyone as we must have put a serious dent in the bug population based on the number of splats on the windshield fairing. Had I not had a windshield….it would have been a mess.

Blog Crash

I think this is good representation of my first attempt at blogging! It is my intent to share my motorcycle rides and related thoughts.

I am not looking to create the next great thing…just a motorcycle blog about what I ride.
