Great Weekend to Ride

Jordan and I took a little ride this Saturday. We decided to ride back to my home town and visit some family members. Of course, we didn't tell anyone we were coming and actually we just needed an excuse to ride. It was a perfect day to ride. It was sunny and high's in the lower 70's. Except for a little wind, it was perfect. Jordan and I rode to see my mom, Angie's mom and dad, and my uncle which I hadn't seen in about 2 years. It was nice see everyone and the ride was great. Overall, Jordan and I rode about 250 miles. You couldn't have ask for a better day. The only downer was Slick wasn't with us due to a business trip. It would have been nice if she could have came too. She loves to ride.

Until next time and enjoy the ride!

Charity Ride Coming Up in Asheboro

One of the best things about riding is not being able to ride, but to be able to ride for a good cause. Here is a great example of that. Not only do you get to ride, you may even save a life.


Until next time and enjoy the ride!

2002 VLX Honda Shadow for Sale

Well, it looks little I am going to have to sell the 2002 VLX Honda Shadow. Not because I want to but because I justdon't have enough room in my garage for my new trailer for Big Red that I will be buying in a couple of weeks. Plus, I am not sure how much I would actually ride the bike. The bike is a nice one. It is very clean, runs great, and a great starter bike for someone. It has only 3540 miles on it and looks practically brand new. I am sure someone will realize what a steal the bike is for only $3200.00. Below is a photo of the bike. I am sure going to miss the bike.


Until next time and enjoy the ride!

Just Had to Ride

Yesterday after work was good day to ride. The temperature was in the low 60’s and it was sunny. I am pretty lucky. I can get off work at 3 pm on most days and I get the chance to ride before it gets dark. So yesterday I rode around town for about 45 minutes then headed home. As I pulled up to the house I hit the garage door and noticed Slick hadn’t gotten home yet. So I closed the garage door and did the next best thing. You got it; I hit the road again. I rode the roads for about another hour. It was a nice relaxing ride after work. It also made me realize that it is not really where you ride that makes riding fun, it that I get to ride. Only other bikers understand that.

I can’t wait until summer. It will be time to ride to the beach, Skyline Drive in WV, the mountains of NC and Wing Ding in SC. I can’t wait!

Until next time and enjoy the ride!
