Got up this morning, said "fugawi", loaded up the GSA and rode to Wellsboro just to ride.

300 miles on the nose; gonna clean myself up and walk down to that brewpub by the old RR station. 

Tomorrow?  Who know?

I rode this morning in 57 degrees.  What a great way to start a Friday.
This mornings most important decision: Take the more fun northern route to the office or the more boring route but with a stop for a treat. The treat being some sort of rhubarb coffecake pastry and a cup of Sumatra. I opted for the treat.
The ride home will be the circuitous, longer mileage, more fun, and sometimes quicker, southern alternative route.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...  rhubarb!!!!!!  I miss home.

Wife and I rode 2 up today through some of VA's beautiful byways.  The scenery in the state still astounds me although I've been here since 73.

Deep in the woods west of the PA Grand Canyon yesterday.  Didn't meet another soul on the entire road.  Plenty of deer though.

If you were wondering why i left the truck there since I'm racing Sunday why drive home and back with the truck at 15mpg when the bike gets 40+mpg and is more fun to.

A little warm in Chicago, so I rode the loud and fun Tuono to work today.  I believe it is International Ride to Work day as well.

Looks like I'm cageless for a few days until i replace the rear brake line on the sport-touring SUV  that blew out coming off I290 at ill. 72 when the brake peddle went to the floor and i have a 2000 lb trailer with 2 bikes in it pushing me.

Nothing thank god.  I had some brake pressure but i had to drop the trany into 1st and stand on the emergency drake. Good thing i decided to slow down before i got off. I usually hit that ramp at about 65. 75 on the bike.
