Made it home around 2:30. Ran through some sprinkles on Floyd Hill but was dry otherwise. Some clouds/storms followed us home as we are now in a severe thunderstorm warning.

Well, after making it home we did have some rain and lightning. Went thru some of the gas receipts and man does Krystal's bike get good gas mileage. On the way out the worst tank was 54 mpg and the best was 68. While there it was around 75 to 77 mpg and on the way home it was mostly 67 mpg. I was about ready to tie a strap on her bike and let her tow me.

Now I need to get her a T-Shirt. "I rode my scooter here, How far have you trailered your Harley?"

Looks like you all had a good time, after they released you.

Good to hear your all getting back home safely, thats excellent mileage if 54mpg was the worst the bike got.

I seem to remember that finding it's way into my room every day dufus.

By the way, I bet it was nicely pressed by the time you got home.
