Well this morning I rode Big Red and it was a brisk 17 degrees. My original record for cruising in the morning to work was 19 degrees. Of course it got down to 17 and I felt the need to break my own record. I guess I figured 19 degrees wasn’t cold enough for a real biker like me. Now don’t get me wrong it was cold but not quite cold enough to prevent me from riding. Most people think I’m nuts. I just had to ride! Of course, I didn’t see anyone else feeling the same need.
Until next time and enjoy the ride!

2007 Total Mileage on Big Red…11,786!
Well, I just calculated my mileage for Big Red for this year. I was a little shocked that put on 11,786 miles on the bike in one year. That is pretty amazing. It was due to our trip to Ohio at the Honda Homing, a nice 3 day trip to the NC mountains with my old Harley buddy Paul, local rallies, a lot of mini trips with Slick on the weekend and of course me riding the bike whenever I could. The miles really did add up.
This year we plan to put even more miles on Big Red since we will be getting a trailer to haul stuff from our trips. Slick has already made me commit to some flee markets and other shopping trips. Oh well, that is why we got the bike to start with. To travel and put our extra junk in the trailer when we travel. Slick said she would not get too much stuff, but I know how that goes.
We also plan to take a few trips to the beach this year. One trip will be to the out banks. Other trips include traveling more rallies and to other states. Of course Jordan will go with us. That will be cool too. We just need to work in getting him a larger bike. His little Honda has to refuel ever hour and a half. That is good for him though. His butt needs a break too.
Until next time and enjoy the ride!
