Ashland Train Days (November 5, 2016)

Saturday got out on the motorcycle. Wanted to do a couple of things...first was to see some of the fall color in the Richmond area. Though a bit cool around 11am (I would guess getting close to 60 degrees) it was a good day to ride. Was not quite totally dressed for it but close enough. I got to ride around Monument Avenue and took this photo at the Jefferson Davis Memorial. Nice color and more then I got to see while I was in the mountains a couple of weeks ago.
After that rode to Ashland, Virginia where they were having their Train Days event. It was a nice thing and enjoyed wandering around there for a while. The mural seen in the photo below is new, and liked that. Lots of people, a lot of booths and many things to see and do. Enjoyed the time there. Later on, rode back to Richmond and around there for a bit before heading home. Ride only covered some 40 miles, but going to do better on Sunday...when I have something really unique and neat planned.
