After days of what turned out to be record breaking rain this month (over 10 inches) have had a beautiful day under clear blue skies. Got out and rode out down some beautiful country roads. Visited a cannon, cows of course and rode down a flag lined road ( called Liberty Road). Did some 40 miles and loved every one of them!

Pre-rain Ride (May 26, 2026)
Got out for the first time in 8 days on the Triumph. Been a long period of daily rain. We have gotten over 7 inches. Need it, but damn. Got in a 35 mile ride, before the next batch. Creeks and rivers are way up.

Morning Putt (May 18, 2026)
Another sunny and warm day. Got out early with things to do but still over 70 degrees with more 80s ahead later. Got out in the country even saw a deer dash across the road. Had to make a stop just before getting home for some families out for a stroll.

80 Degrees (May 17, 2026)
Today I, along apparently with every motorcyclist in the area, got out on a beautiful Sunday. Had some errands to run, and the Triumph is my favorite way to do it. Covered some 30 miles, hey have to throw in some fun along the way. Stopped in New Carlisle and Enon...with a stop in between by the Advance One Room School which dates to 1878. A fun day to ride!

Back from The Sea (May 14, 2026)
Returned from a trip to beautiful Virginia Beach, and got back in the saddle today. Temperature was around 60, and so was the distance (well, a mile short). Rode into Enon, Yellow Springs, Xenia and Fairborn. Mix of city and country. Nice ride and good to be back again.

Buc-ee's Ride (April 24, 2026)
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
