It was fun as while at a red light across from the Air Force Base watched a C-17 take off. Did not see that in Richmond, VA. Rode awhile around Fairborn and then made a stop at this Trailer Park for a photo of the bike by the propeller.
After a short city ride out to the country I went. Made a stop at George Rogers Clark Park. It was the site of an Indian battle with forces lead by General Clark back around the Revolutionary War Period. Nice place which I have been to before in the car with my wife.

The ride was just one hour as I had been doing some car maintenance earlier but sure had a wonderful time out in the wind and exploring Ohio.
