Opened a couple of weeks ago, made a stop this morning at Buc-ee's. Its just over a mile from our house. From there rode to Vandalia, and then down some new (for me) backroads to Tipp City where I made a quick stop. Got fuel for $3.89 (due to tRUMP) and got home. 38 miles at 71 degrees

Smells Like Country Ride(April 23, 2026)
Another beautiful Thursday, got out for a short 20 mile ride. Got out in Farm Country, and certainly had that earthy aroma. Probably a lit due to fertilizer of different types. Was 80 degrees and a few miles before getting home stopped at the New Carlisle Airport. It was a beautiful day to ride.

Another overcast day with a good rain chance, also again warm in the mid 70s. Did some 20 miles. Stopped by the New Carlisle Cemetery, where I came across a running Bunny. Saw a very cool motorcycle while out, and rode past the local Harley repair shop before getting home.
