Had a great rip on the Duffey Lake Road in B.C. with a couple of our members on Labour Day.

11 Day 2,800 Mile Trip from NH to Charlotte NC, including 490 miles on the Blue Ridge Parkway through Va and NC.  Highly recommend it.  Traffic was light and weather was good!

Wholy Crapps Lippy!  You found Amelia Earhart!
Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.

Andy, do you ever just take a nice leisurely ride around say 50 to 100 miles at most to just chill out from a stressful day at work and to get some wind in your face. That's what I really like, but you really tach on the mileage. Are these rides planned out or you just wake up one morning and take off. By the way nice pictures 8)

Sure I do sometimes take leisurely rides around the back roads of New England. That is always interesting. These rides are planned and this particular one was planned a while back in order to go see the start of the Cannonball Run 2012.
