A Ride on a Friday afternoon (June 9. 2017)

Nice ride today. Temperatures were in the low 80's and sunny. Took a ride to Malvern Hill Battlefield and some country roads in that area. Nice to get out and enjoyed the views there. Rolled on to Williamsburg Road (not quite sure how I got there and headed back toward Richmond.
While heading out that way, saw this at the airport off Williamsburg Road. Had to check it out which is a Russian transport aircraft. Have seen a lot of Russian planes but this is the first actual transport I have seen. Was kind of thinking that is what it was. Words on the plane and the flag confirmed it. Got home after a meal stop at Bottoms Up Pizza. Total ride was some 45 miles!
