I rode 230 miles for a turkey sandwich!


Here's my new ride :) I love it!

The Hartland bike gang~ Limitied memberships still available, any one want to join?

A much needed butt break!

OMG Kristen!! You look like a natural there! 230 miles for a sandwich?? I hope that was round-trip mileage!!!

Do you have leathers and a helmut? And does the bike feel good to you - easy to ride and control? It's a beauty for sure!!

BTW, that old brick building behind you looks like it could make some great apartments.

Thanks BIddie! I have been riding my Honda for 7 years and just in the last year something finally clicked and I "get" the whole riding thing. I was scared of it for the longest time and I would never have gone so far. I had so much fun, yes I have a helmet and leather coat but it was too hot for that yesterday. 230 was round trip to Bennington Vermont. Beautiful country up there, the problem riding my own, I can't snap pictures and look at stuff
That brick building is in Pittsfield MA, an old factory town that is now just a whole bunch of apartments, rememeber I went by here a month or so ago when I snapped pictures on the back of Ray's bike?

It sure is beautiful country to ride in ... You will have to get real technical and figure out a way to put a small camera on your helmut that you can take pictures with - the camera is always aimed at where you are looking - it can be triggered by a wireless button on your handlebars - how's that for science-fiction??

I thought the brick building looked familiar but I didn't recognize it as the same building where you had stopped previously.

You go Girl!! I'm really impressed, I don't think I'd have the nerve to ride that far on a bike.
