Default Picture from my first REAL ride

This is at Lake Erie today. I rode 200 miles, by far the most I have ever rode. before this 40 was about the most I ever rode.


Anyone else get a good ride in this weekend?

Nice picture. I missed a good day today, shopping for furniture. I hope to get out tomorrow or Monday.

After you install the Memphis Shade PopTop, you'll feel a lot better as far as your neck anyway. Bet you were holding on pretty tight which wears on your arms and neck. Cant say much for the tailbone though. Nice view and a beautiful bike.

I’m staying away from the cold Great Lakes.

On extended runs try putting your legs up on the passenger pegs and give yourself a stretch.

Looks like a great area to ride around!
I gotta get some time off from work and get some more time back on my ride.

Sounds like you were riding a sportbike! I thought those things were supposed to be comfortable!
