BBQ Road (July 20, 2014)

 Nice Sunday ride-a little warmer than the day before, and a little more humid, with a lot more cloud cover, but a good day to ride.
Took this photo in Church Hill (a section of Richmond, VA) and one of my favorite views of the city (though in this case, blocked a bit by my bike). Headed out around 11am and the goal was to get a bit of lunch. Liked that idea, made a last minute charge. Been going to Moe's Southwest Grill, but this time decided some BBQ was in order. Had not been to Alamo BBQ in some time.

This is Alamo, which is in Church Hill also. You can either take it home or eat outside (I went with the eat outside option) and got the BBQ sandwich with texas beans (with bbq is how they make those). They don't have alcohol so had an Arnold Palmer-tea with lime juice (and very tasty) as was the food. One of my favorite places to eat and had not been there for a while, so enjoyed it a great deal.
Church Hill is a very interesting place, going through a lot of changes, but a lot of fun things there to see, eat, and explore. One of the largest civil war hospitals (North or South) is located there (though the buildings are all gone) .  

While at Alamo saw this Honda Shadow (think its a 750). I have a great fondness for these bikes...my previous bike was a Honda 600 Shadow and rode it for 36,000 trouble free miles.
Ride Sunday was not real far, though did finish up with a ride down Midlothian Turnpike. Clouds were building and thought parking it for the day was a good idea..as well as winding down to get ready for the workweek ahead. For the weekend got a total of 95 miles, most of which was Saturday, but some really great time on the Vulcan this weekend. Been lucky on those...so far weather wise for quite a few weeks in a row.
