Title: Ride today, 6/25/17
Post by: springer on June 25, 2017, 09:54:47 AM
 I am riding.....somewhere today.  ;) Where somewhere IS, I have no idea.  ;D BUT I do know I want to hit some gravel type roads and some dirt roads that are not to muddy.

Why no mud you ask?
Am I scared to get my "adventure type motorsickel" in the mud?

Your dang right I am.  ;)

The stock factory tires Honda puts on are a 100% compromise type tire but they ARE consistent on how they handle the pavement, grass, dirt, and mud.


They will let go in a New York minute with NO warning.  ::)

Didn't I BUY some nobbie type  tires?


Yes I did.........but I am a cheap S.O.B.  ;D I am not sticking them on until I wear the factory ones out.  ;)

So no mud for me..................right now. ;D


I will check back in. I do plan on heading out between 11am and HIGH NOON, so post up if you want to go or you have some roads you think I need to ride.

BIG F.Y.I.
If it has been awhile since you have road the river roads on my side of town, the westside, know this! The Jefferson County Sheriff Dept has stepped up enforcement of the speed laws in the area.

You use to see them taking radar every now and then.

NOW, it is a everyday thing.  ;) Just something to keep in mind if you are in the area............


Be safe, have fun, and do not spend your money on something you do not have too.  ;)
