Indian Summer Ride (October 21, 2022)

Rode for a number of reasons. We have been enduring a pretty long cold spell (it is late October after all) with even some what has been rare rain. However today and for the next few days, 70 degrees have come back with no rain in sight. Second, I got a new cell phone as the old one was crapping out, and wanted to test it (and the test can be seen in these photos). Finally it was 70 degrees and still beautiful color to see out there. So though a breezy day, got out and took these photos in George Rogers Clark Park. Pleased with the ride and these pictures. 

Probably will be out at least a few times in the next few days!

 

Bunny Beer Ride (October 15, 2022)

Another beautiful ride on this fantastic Saturday. Riding later in the afternoon due to the much cooler temperatures to be found this time of year. However, the colors are remarkable, and while it was 57 degrees, I was dressed for it. Had a great ride and made a stop at Hairless Hair Brewing in Vandalia, Ohio for a refreshing beverage. I also earlier made a stop at the park to see the donkey. The donkey is the symbol of the Democratic Party here, and I will be voting Democrat in a few days. In the words of much wiser men....Fuck Donald Trump! 

All in all a fantastic ride and a great time. 

 

Farm Ride (October 10, 2022)

Another beautiful 70-degree day in Ohio, and I could not resist getting out for another ride. Can tell by the color in the trees (and especially yesterday's much cooler ride) that the riding season here is getting ever shorter. Got out again under clear blue skies to check out the sights on this Monday afternoon. Still some corn to harvest, but many of the fields have already been cleared, or are in the process. Rode up some hilly roads (which is fun to do) and even rode out to George Rogers Clark Park. Did some 40 miles and every one of them was fantastic. Can't wait to strap on the helmet, and do it again! 

 

Sunday Dayton Ride (October 9, 2022)

Beautiful day for a ride. Getting late in the riding season here, was just above 50 degrees so had to bundle up a bit. However, the color was beautiful and enjoyed being out in the breeze under clear blue skies and in fairly light traffic for a Sunday.

Rode out into Dayton. Stopped a few times for photos and once at Warped Wing Brewing for a refreshing beverage. Covered a lot more miles than usual but had a great time doing it. 

Looking forward to the next ride, and hope all of you are doing well. Thanks for visiting my page!  

 

A Thursday Ride in Ohio (October 6, 2022)

Got out for a second day in a row, once again due to 70 degree tempeatures. As the previous day, a beautiful day to get out in the afternoon. Rode in the same general area, but once again picked some different roads around there, and saw a few different sights.

Fall color is breaking out, still a ways to go, but seeing more and more of it each time out. It was very nice and enjoyed it a great deal. Course, its a motorcycle ride what is not to like?

First Ride of October (October 5, 2022)

Got out for a rare afternoon ride for the first ride of October, it was in the 70's which is normal for this time of year, but soon those temperatures will be dropping as the month goes on. Mornings here have been of late in the 40's.

Stopped to check out some cows, once again went down some really cool and curvy country roads. It was a beautiful day to get out but did find once again that the afternoon rides include meeting with the local bugs in the area. Still, it was fantastic. 

Made a quick stop at 571 for a quick refreshment stop before heading home.

 

Last Ride of September (September 30, 2022)

Beautiful Friday in Central Ohio, had some places to go to in New Carlisle, Ohio so made a couple of stops there. They are getting ready for the "Festival of Flight" (aviation is a big deal here) and looking forward to that. Will have some photos from that event on my "Ohio and Me" blog. Today there will be a car show, also rides, bands and booths along the road. Tomorow is the aircraft parade and the motorcycle show...planning to make both of those. As for the ride today was a real good one. Went down some roads I have not been on in a while, past farms and fields. At the end of the ride, took the last photo, a little fall color. More of that to come soon for sure in the next few weeks.
