I took advantage of a break in the weather and took off for a ride to the coast. Left Saturday morning about 9:30 and did over 200 miles. Hit some lonely country roads missed turns, and finally got lost. It was cooler than I thought and I never did get warm. Tried several different gloves. As I approached the coast, the winds got colder. However, the ride back today was fantastic!! The roads were empty, I was warm and the Nighthawk was hot. I even tried to side saddle in some of the turns. It was one of those rides that I didn't want to end. I was in the saddle about 4 hours, seemed like 20 minutes.

Looks like you had a good ride. I love to ride back roads like those.

I've only been riding (again) for little over a year and I've really enjoyed discovering my state.

I'm working now, but most weekends are clear. My sister lives on Chapel Hill -Greensboro Road so I can combine a quick visit with her. I also want to compare that Lexington Q to the eastern.
