Columbus Day Ride (October 13, 2025)

 Got the time and temperature on today's ride. Did a nice 40 mile cruise through Vandalia,  Dayton and Huber Heights.  Stopped at Taco Bell for a light lunch - a mini Taco Salad which was perfect. On the way home visited with geese . Unlike yesterday's cows, they did not appreciate the visit. Thank you for visiting my pages!

Running Errands (October 10, 2025)

 Got out for a short ride today, had an errand to run for my wife perfect for the morning.  When I got up the temperature was 39 degrees.  Got out at it was in the lower 60's. Nice getting out on this Friday.  

Seeing some Fall color though it is later this year then in previous years and not very widespread.  Could be due to the long period of 80s of late and/or the lack of rain.

Post Storm Ride (October 8, 2025)

 Big rain yesterday after a couple weeks of zero rain. Got over 3 inches and it was badly needed.  Today though was a beautiful day to ride. Temperature was in the low 60's ( much cooler early this morning) and did some 25 miles out in the country. Enjoying the rides as the season is winding down.

End of September Ride(September 30, 2025)

 Wild weather here, much warmer then typical for this time of year. Taking advantage though, and got a good ride in on this beautiful day. Rode out to George Rogers Clark Park,  and checked out some of the history there. Did around 25 miles at 62 degrees.  Will be warming into the upper 80s later today and has it's  been for quite a few days bone dry.

Aviation Ride (September 27, 2025)

 Got back a couple of days ago from the Virginia Beach trip and the NAS Oceana Airshow there (great time and photos at my "Ohio and Me" Page). In honor of that, made an airplane ride of sorts. Visited Huffman Prairie Flying Field where the Wright Brothers perfected their airplane design after Kitty Hawk, the Wright Memorial just up the road, and a stop at the Air Force Museum  for a look at some of the planes outside. Nice ride of some 30 miles in all at some 60 degrees this beautiful morning.  Yeah, added a few roads today as well. Three sights I visited are within 5 miles of each other.

9-11 Ride(September 11, 2025)

 Got up this morning watching shows about the attacks in 2001. I remember that day, was a real waking nightmare.  Thinking of all those who lost their lives on that terrible day. 

Got out and rode for a bit. That, as always lifted my spirits.
