Stearman Ride ( June 19, 2026)
First of all, Happy Juneteenth. A great day in American history. Got out on the Triumph and rode into Fairborn. Then, rode out to day one of the Stearman Fly-in. Stearman made planes from the 1920's. Most notably they made training aircraft in World War 2. These are what have arrived so far. Was a great ride today, about 36 miles and temperature in the low 70's.
