Pre-freeze Ride One (I hope) on a Friday (November 18, 2016)

Was not a big ride....but with Sunday temperatures expected to reach a high of 40, wanted to get out for a while. So I did. Got this photo of the bike in the neighborhood with a bit of fall color. Was pretty out in the area and the temperature was close to 70 which was great. Made a stop along the way at Home Depot. I was looking for something I could not find, and they had it. Will go back for "them" in the car tomorrow (sometimes both are handy though I prefer the bike). Speaking of the bike still very happy with it, it is a lot of fun to ride. Sure I had the Vulcan for 11 years and yeah that was pretty amazing too. This Speedmaster is just fun on a much different level. Later on after that, rode up to Buffalo Wild Wings and got some...well wings. Was real good and had a good time there. Rode back and got off Midlothian Turnpike. Late afternoon traffic starts to get pretty busy in the early afternoon to around 6PM. So the total ride was around (give or take) 30 miles. Had a great time and HOPING to do that again tomorrow. Will depend if the forecast is right. They are saying that the cold front will come though around 3PM, but that could (and often is) off by a few hours either way. At any case, will see how it goes.
