Nice fall ride

[1maxman]

Took a nice ride today, did about 300 miles. Rode north west toward the upper Adirondack mountains then south towards central NY. Then headed south east to Cooperstown. Picked up schneiders bakery old fashioned donuts to take home, had a couple slices of Sals pizza then headed north east through Saratoga and home. It was chilly this morning when I set out, around 45 degrees but warmed up to around 57 later in the afternoon. The scenery was excellent, the leaves up north were past peak but as I went south they got better. The sun teased me all day by peaking out for about 10 minutes at a time. The one constant I had all day was the awesomeness of my '13 FJR. The hand grip heaters were great, the cruise was great, averaged over 50 MPG, it handled great and was comfortable. Just another excellent day, just me and my FJR.

I hate it for yooze guys up yonder. I was sweating pretty good yesterday around Raleigh. 92*F in the city tho it did cool down to about 82 in the country. No fall colors yet. I still have roses blooming in the yard.

I was just appeasing you with a lame excuse RadioHowie, I don't take pictures unless I'm with other riders and then only because they want to stop along the way. Personally I just enjoy the freedom and solitude when I'm by myself and don't need photos to remind me of the great time I had. I'll try to remember to take pics along the way next time.

Yeah, that's me too. Even with some of my regular riding buds no pics are ever taken.

When you get to my age, you need the photos to even remember you were riding .

So, when either of you two ever get the opportunity to "lay some pipe" on Kate Beckinsale or Kate Upton we're supposed to just take your words for it without pictures?

Don't you even dare!!

RadioHowie, that is one giant can of worms you just opened, there are so many things I could say but I don't know you so I'll keep my comments to myself.
