Election Day Ride (November 5, 2024)

Rode on Election Day (voted a few days prior, unfortunately my candidate lost to the felon) and went to Tipp City under cloudy skies. 

Was a good day to ride once again, and the second day in a row. Neat town, and like Xenia saw they were getting ready for the Christmas holiday, putting lights in the trees lining the street. Looking forward to seeing that, later this holiday season.

Saw the horses on the way back home. Looking forward to the next few rides as this riding season winds down.  
 

Pre-election Ride (November 4, 2024)

Got out on a beautiful day, and rode out to Xenia, Ohio, nice ride on a beautiful day. Was warmer than usual, with temperatures in the 70's. 

Saw this cabin there, and saw they were getting Christmas lights ready for an upcoming display (and that will be seen in a few weeks on my "Ohio and Me" page). 

Saw horses running at the Greene County Fairgrounds, and got a photo of the old City Hall. 

Was a very nice ride!   
 

"Halloween" Ride (October 30,2024)

Due to a rainy and windy Halloween Day forecast, got out the day early on October 30, to take a last look at the decorations (of which only a few are seen here) in Fairborn, Ohio. 

Been to a lot of places in the US (and beyond) over Halloween, to me Fairborn is one of the top places to see. You could (as I have) spend days and days looking at all it has to offer. 

As for the ride, in late October here enjoyed blue skies, and unseasonably warm temperatures. Both were much appreciated, and I enjoyed the ride.   

 

Hanging with Cows October 26, 2024)

Another beautiful fall day in Ohio. Temperature was in the upper 50's, but a great day to ride. Fall color was wonderful, we are currently near peak color. Considering the drought of the past few weeks, and the predictions that color would be weak, its been a pleasant surprise.

I got out and ran a few errands on the Triumph, which is a fun way to do them. I also got out in the country and greatly enjoyed that as usual.

Mentioned cows and passed quite a few of them, including some that you can see below. Interesting critters and enjoy seeing them while out. 

It was a great ride under nice blue skies and had a wonderful time!   

 

A Dam Ride (October 23, 2024)

More Fall color on a beautiful Wednesday in Ohio. This time rode out to Taylorsville Dam (hence the title) to see some of the Fall color. 

Enjoy seeing the sights a great deal, and this is a fun area to ride in. Vandalia has a lot to offer and there is a lot to see in that city. 

It was a great ride, and the dam (seen at left with the colorful trees) and below is very interesting. A popular area but best enjoyed during the week. 

Thanks for visiting my pages. 

 

Monday Fall Color Ride (October 22, 2024)

Beautiful Fall Day and first day back from the Rising Sun Trip (can be seen on my Ohio and Me Page) but a good day to get out. Around 60 as I took the Triumph out for a country ride. Smelled a bit of "country air" on this ride too, but that is part of the fun. 

Lots of good Reds, Orange and Yellow in the trees. Due to the drought here, was told there would be very little color. Thankfully that was not the case. 

It was a beautiful ride, and as always a great time on the motorcycle    

 

Exploring Fall on a Thursday (October 17, 2024)

Was in the low 50's when I got the Triumph out on a beautiful Thursday. Headed into Fairborn after a short delay due to a "Goose Parade": but it was cute. 

Saw some Halloween in Fairborn, fall color in the trees, and an inspiring pair of signs while out. 

The parade I mentioned in below, and a photo of the bike below that. 

Great time out and a beautiful day to ride!
