The Last Two Days

Post by bigjohnsd »

I've been riding Brian's ManStrom to get some miles on the latest valve adjustment in an attempt to end the saga.

Freya has been patiently sitting waiting to enjoy the early summer weather.

Yesterday and today Freya got her exercise. We tried riding some of our favorite paved roads but found most choked with piratical riders on tractor-like motorcycles often going slower than both the speed limit and the yellow signs.

We took the only available option and took to the dirt and gravel, places where no self-respecting pirates would ever take their tractors.

Sorry to hear about the crowded conditions. Come on out to Eastern Washington and NE Oregon. You will have the road to yourself.
