Sunday River Ride (August 5, 2018)

Finally once again, the rains held off (though it rained later in the day) so got out on the Triumph for a nice ride along the swollen James River. While we have gotten a lot of rain here, and most every day, the amounts are nothing compared to the mountains or the Virginia Beach area which is getting flooding. I can relate as we had a lot of flooding during the massive Spring rains here. So far a very wet spring is being followed by a very wet Summer. There seems to be no real end in sight. 
At any case it was a nice ride, even went down a few new roads. I was not out very long with this being a 90 minute ride. While it was not raining at the time, the temperature was rising into the 90's. Got home having covered a grand total of 34 miles. Certainly this has been the lightest year of motorcycling that I can remember and it is all due to the weather here. Still, even a short ride is a good ride, and I enjoyed being out in the breeze on what started as a beautiful Sunday in Richmond, VA.
