Friday Ride (August 10, 2018)

Got out on a nice but warm August Friday. Rains had stopped after another period of rain. This has been one wet summer here in Richmond. Took this photo at Tredegar which during the Civil War was the Confederate Armory. Some of the original buildings are there (and that is the reason for the cannon at middle left). They are doing some work to cover the old ruins which is the new building seen at around middle left.
Enough of that though. It was a nice day to get out and traffic was light. Toured some downtown and rode out a bit actually getting close to the Richmond International Airport. In a rare thing for me, did not ride near it on this day (love airplanes though). Headed back toward Richmond via the highway after riding around the backroads for awhile. All in all covered a distance of 24 miles and had a fantastic time out on the motorcycle on this fine day.

Farm Country Ride (June 25, 2025)

 Beautiful day to get out. Rain has been the big issue the last few days, certainly has flowers growing in my yard, and corn on the farms.  ...
