Nice report! It seems like everyone was out this weekend here in Central Ohio, mostly the Harley crowd. I'm already sick of waving. I think I'll give it up this year. On the other hand, I saw only a few riders out today (Tuesday). I took a loop up to Johnson Woods near Orrville, then on to...

40 years on February 12th. Headed to the Dominican Republic next week to celebrate!

Tales from Days of Yore: 1975 I bought a new Suzuki GT 550 RamAir from my uncles dealership in New Ulm, Minnesota in 1975. Rode it to Mansfield, Ohio in one day. I stayed off the Interstates but picked up US 30 as soon as I could. I can't remember the exact route, but it would have been...

I was browsing through the ride reports last night and came across this one. I couldn't stop reading it until I finished it about 12:40 a.m. Great story and very inspiring! Deserves a bump.

So how warm was it? I was riding around Central Ohio this afternoon and my temp readout was a high of 46*. Nice pic, by the way!

KBB value = $8315, so $7995 is not an unreasonable asking price for a dealer. As others have stated, 21k miles is just broken in. If I was serious about buying an AE I would offer them $7000, see what happens. Comparing 2009 AE's on Cycletrader, it looks like there may be a better deal or two...

Heres another for them thats looking in Ohio, 2009 AE: https://www.mid-ohio.com/new_vehicle_detail.asp?veh=87133&pov=4327299 The finance manager at this dealership owned this one and traded it for a Honda F6B.

I have an '07 Tacoma I bought new. Had the frame replaced last year. They put lots of new parts under there, gave me a 2014 loaner, took about six weeks, haven't had any problems at all. Got 107,xxx miles on it now. Great little truck and great service from the dealer.

Now I want to do some roaming in the Southland. Why did I ever read this? "Dammit, Jim, I told you not to buy that FJR. Now the Enterprise is just going to sit in Spacedock!" - Dr. Leonard McCoy

As long as we're posting up about freezing rides in Ohio on December 19th, I just happened to be out that day! Here's a few pics (not hijacking, I just don't think my little ride merits its own thread, and it does jibe with your thread title!) Nice sunny day at my house: Temp reading taking...

Mid-Ohio.com, my local dealer website has a 2015 ES with 410 miles and balance of factory warranty listed for $13,495. They were trying to get me to trade up from my 2013.

North of Bowling Green you will find Mammoth Cave, definitely worth a half day to take the tour. Wear a light jacket as it is cool inside the cave. Also Bowling Green has the Corvette Museum, if you like that sort of thing.
