Vacation - the last day (July 7, 2014)

 Oh well, all good things must end...so it does with vacation, but over the past few days have had some great rides. So it was today, another beautiful day. Have been lucky - all these days off, and no rain. In fact very few hot or humid days (and strangely that will restart with the first day of work...tomorrow) .
Got in a nice ride...got out to the Redskins training camp...actually a Chicago Bear fan, but still thought it was cool last year going to the camp, and will be back there this year.
The Redskins (least that is the name for a while) practice in Richmond, VA as of last year.
This is a photo at Velocity, which is my favorite motorcycle shop...they do stuff for a fair price, and do the work right. Sell Royal Enfield motorcycles, and some used bikes....such as this Kawasaki 900 and the Honda 750 Custom behind it.
Was a good ride, went to Carytown for lunch at Mellow Mushroom (love that place) and also to Legend's for a while too...just to sit and enjoy the river.
Last three days I have gotten in 100 miles, not a lot of big rides, but a lot of rides. The one big ride was a few days ago, the ride to Hampton, VA to the air park and Fort Monroe. I had a great time, though the highway traffic was something.
Will look forward to doing this again in a few months, had a lot of luck though with weather and ...well sometimes a plan just comes together.
Hope all have some great rides. Been a lot of crashes lately which I have read on the forums....be sure to ride safe. Motorcycling can be a dangerous thing.

At long last, got back out on the Triumph once again for the 2024 riding season. Was a long but fun winter and a wet Spring, but things are ...
