Bruce is coming into town and for the first time in five years, we'll be taking both street bikes out.
Bruce and I are planning to head out for an overnight ride. Where we go will largely depend on the weather since there are multiple systems moving through the area. Over the last two days on the DR650 my shoulders and neck are in pretty bad shape so we'll see how much I can do. It's highway miles that seem to hurt the most on the dual-sport.
Bruce, Duncan, and I are going to do another day ride, this time heading North to avoid the rains in this area and to the South.
Bruce is in town and we've been planning on a modest ride. But then we heard Ian was coincidentally also in town so the four of us, Duncan, Bruce, Ian, and I, are going to do a Southern Maryland Loop ride.
Bruce is in town so we're talking about doing a modest day ride since the scheduling between various events and obligations has gotten so challenging.
If all goes to plan, Duncan, Bruce, and I will go on a two and half day or so ride through some of the more northern roads I've explored in Virginia with America Rides Maps. This is a street ride. I promise! ;)
Once again we are embarking on an adventure involving a funny looking motorcycle. From March 26th to April 3rd six friends and I will be aboard the Tabasco, a Baltic 76 sailboat, sailing around Sint Maarten. Since I don't have a selection for "Other" vehicle type yet, if you want to respond just select "Watch".
Assuming I can get both the R1100S Guest Bike and my DR650SE operational before Saturday, we're planning on a hopefully longish day ride. Sadly, a multi-day overnight was not in the cards for this Bruce visit.
The plan is to head to points North and West to revisit the area we rode in yesterday, temperature permitting.
While it's not the 10 day ride we would prefer, Duncan, Bruce, and I are going to ride together for the first time in a very long time. I'm pondering super slab up to Falls Road North of Baltimore, one of our favorites, and then loop over random roads to Catoctin ... dinner at McGinthy's at 8.
After some discussion, we decided to re-trace part of the route Duncan and I did with Jim Ford some years ago and follow that with a run out to Savage River Road and the general area out in the pan handle. If we're able to get out at a decent hour this should be a right proper riding day.
We had hoped this would be a multi-day ride but circumstances have conspired to turn it into a day ride. Thinking of not venturing out too far.
Buffalo, Bruce, and I are planning on a 10 day or so ride through New Mexico and surrounding areas sometime this coming Spring or early Summer. Riding the "Alien Loop" has been mentioned. As of this writing it's still up in the air but the general idea is that I would trailer the two K bikes out to meet up with Bruce. Buffalo would fly in. We would ride for 10, maybe 14 days, Buffalo would fly back and then I would trailer the bikes back. I may take an extra week and ride further West. It's still not set in stone. This would be a street ride on street bikes. The listed dates are just placeholders until we get closer and know what everyone's schedule is.
This year's trip will be shorter than previous ones. We are considering a four day Virginia/West Virginia/Ohio loop ride. In a recent mapping trip with Wayne, I came across some truly nice roads only a few hours away so the thought would be to get to good roads quickly.
