Night Ride to Christmas Lights (November 13, 2016)

Damn nice ride. They lit up Short Pump Mall out on West Broad Street this past Friday, and after a quick stop for dinner at Mom's Siam in Carytown, I rode out there. Always a good ride if a little thick traffic wise, but well worth the ride. Big mall out there (which like Stony Point Fashion Park has been redone...saw the tree lighting there last night) but got to say this is a beautiful tree. The mall is what you would call "tastefully decorated" but really nice. I enjoyed the tree and the reindeer there.
Rode back on West Broad Street and got to do my second ride at night on the Triumph. Very nice and enjoyed it a great deal. Mid-November it may be, but was very comfortable on the motorcycle and enjoyed it from beginning to end. Think it ended up being something like 38 miles. One night last year in December with night temperatures of 70 degrees went to see Christmas lights in Richmond and that was cool. This was also a very fun event.
