The If 6 was 9 with Flowers ride report.
I decided to go for a little ride on Easter Sunday. Here is my route, one I ride frequently in the winter and early spring. The idea of this ride was to try out some new motorcycle boots, a thin excuse, see some flowering trees and the soft green color of new leaves on the trees.
I am near Victor Washington when my odometer on my 09 says 50,000 miles.
About this time my mind start humming the song If 6 was 9 is a song by Jimi Hendrix. In this case 50,000 is 62080 and I don't mind, I don't mind. At 12080 miles Yamaha replaced my instrument cluster because the gear indicator failed. I was on Yamaha's dime because I was covered by YES, yes! I don't mind, I don't mind.
Shortly after the flashback in Victor I stop near Union Washington on Hwy 302 and take a few photos of Puget Sound.
Notice the Olympic Mountains in the background - mostly void of snow this year - very odd.
Hwy 302 at the point were these photos were stolen!
Here is the flower part of this ride report, the flowering trees. Very nice. I sure am lucky to live in such as scenic area with great roads to ride on.
Some blue sky - the forecast was for showers today.
A nice road, the Purdy Cutoff road.
Soft green color of new leaves.
More flowers on trees.
Very nice! I had to pull over to take this one and it was worth it.
Onward to Bunker Creek Rd. road to take a shot of these trees.
Then more flowers.
It was a wonderful day to be on the FJR and the boots worked great.
