A long hot ride!

Post by ScabbyDoo »

Left our new digs in Western PA on Wed. July 3rd and after two days of riding and just over 1,100 miles I arrived in Orlando on July 4th for a get together of my late brothers Motorcycle Club. By the way, for those that know them, Swede and Hi-Top, they are doing fine. Spent a few great days renewing friendships mad over the last 17 years. On Saturday the BH (she flew down and back) and I celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary! Monday and Tuesday I made the ride back home.

At 77 years old, I am blessed that the BH is still here with me and that I can still ride on two wheels!

I wish all of you similar good fortune.


BTW, the ride down and the ride back were the hottest I've ever made. First day on the ride back the temp hit 107 at one spot.
Often asked question: When are you going to think about getting a trike?

Answer: When I come to a stop with this one, put my feet down and can't hold it up!

Very cool Tom!

50 years with you and she is still sane? She's a keeper
Life is like riding a motorcycle. Balance is key, unless you’re at a stoplight and forget to put your feet down. Then, balance is just embarrassing. :lol: :lol:

After 50 years with me I'm not so sure about the "sane" but she is a keeper! 8-)
