My area is thick with woods, rarely you can see further than hundred yards. That said I tend to ride closer to the middle - we are overrun by dear and suburbians in minivans.
Must be interesting to ride in such open space, didnt experience anything like that except maybe some parts of Alps and France. But the traffic is much thicker there.
Great video, thanks again.

Hey heffay, how did the gel seat pad work out? Up for a ride in the near future, before we start getting melted? Thinking of meeting in, say Payson, and riding around that area.

heffay,
Thanks for the "RIDE" man !I felt like I was on the bike doing the driving myself...and I Needed a Ride on that road right now

... I've found that with the changing surfaces of the road + whatever is slippery on the lanes sometimes as far as traction is concerned will keep me moving to the best surface of the lane...no matter where that may be.

That must have been nice to be able to ride with no cars in front of you to block you're Line;the CB350F sounded good & it seems like you've got her dialed in Nice.

I'm thinking maybe this Saturday? (I'll start a thread on the open forum, in case any other riders want to escape the smog pit.

That would be a good place for a pair of Binoculars, Excellent Area.

Very cool I especially liked the old school reel film "artifacts". I do have a suggestion for music selection next time. How about a little BOC go go godzilla

Go Go Godzilla is also a good choice, but wouldn't flow with the current theme... as you said though, next time Artifacts? like what, because I added none, are you referring to the shake, the ride added those.

On my end there were lines here and there and even flashes like watching a old reel projector.

Also I didn't notice anything wrong with your riding style.

heffay · « **Reply #2490 on:** April 08, 2012, 12:16:10 AM »

The lines were probably from bright sun or reflection, most digital cams do it. The jumps or flashes are my anti shake software at work... Be glad, the originals would make you seasick

This afternoon: Highway 169, looking East.

heffay · « **Reply #2492 on:** April 08, 2012, 08:21:55 PM »

Some of my favorite kinda shots, scottly.

scottly · « **Reply #2493 on:** April 08, 2012, 08:54:45 PM »

Highway 169 where it ends at I-17, looking West.

If you ever come East Scottly, your riding skills would be instantly challangled if tha'ts the fall-asleep roads your riding on

heffay · « **Reply #2495 on:** April 08, 2012, 10:11:44 PM »

East?? Now those are sleepy roads... Ride west, my friend, these roads may as well be crack.

Really? · « **Reply #2496 on:** April 09, 2012, 08:04:19 AM »

Between Marble Falls and Fredricksburg, Texas, just before a three mile dirt road. After that road, the bike is the dirtiest it has been in a long time. It may take a month for be to get it back where it was.

Little ride around South Boston

Nice harbor scene...;did they clean up & smooth out the roads in Boston after the Big Dig ?

Those shots are only 10-15 miles from home. 15 miles in the other direction puts me at the base of Mingus Mountain, which is a bit more exciting! Hard to take pictures that do it justice, since it's unwise to stop in the middle of a 15 MPH off-camber hair-pin, with the mountain on one side and a drop-off on the other!
