Where did you ride today? How was it?

We went on a nice ride south, had a little fog. Our little 3 bike ride turned into a 9 bike ride. Man does that slow things down...just getting gas + lunch cuts into saddle time. Still had fun. How can you complain when we are riding the last day in November and not getting wet?

Nice 200 miler through farm country.


Hey Kris,

Thinking about the Mustang seat..I am 6'2" and about 195# how does that compare with you?

Kris gave me a call Friday afternoon asking about a ride this weekend. Unfortunaly, I was in California Gold country in a sled. I hope he got out to spend some time. Nancy and I drove back from Sacramento Saturday and Sunday. Left in the fog, ran into beautiful clear skys Satruday. Today, Sunday, was mostly fog until we got up to around Everett this afternoon.

To say that I an a little jellus is an understatement. Been without a scoot for a whole week. That inhales. but, we got to see some old friends we havens seen in a year. That was good.

Hope everyone had a great turkyday.

Greg,
Well.....that would be tall and skinny compared to short and fat I'm 5'10 and about 240...

As for my ride....BigJohn was in Cali so he didn't go. My brother and I rode across the Mukilteo Ferry, then up Whidbey Island to Anacortes where we stopped for lunch. We then came back down through farm country and it was really nice to be out this late in the year for sure! 150 miles or so round trip.

Kris,

That sounds like a great ride. I took that same ride on the way to the Oyster Rally as you know. It was nice but all the bike traffic from the Rally kind of ruined it...I am sure taking the same ride yesterday would have been much better.

I guess that is another side benefit of owning a Nomad...when you go to the KawaNow National Rally it doesn't cause gridlock!

John,

Sorry to hear you missed out but at least you still did something fun!
