Colorado, USA
Riding in at night last week, Tim noticed a spotlight was out on The Ride so today's Harley excursion included riding to Thunder Mountain Harley-Davidson for a replacement bulb. A part we had ordered had also come in so we made short work of that errand.
The part is a pigtail connection that allows the running lights to stay on when the bright lights are on. Somewhere in between the house and the dealership we rolled over 38,000 miles on The Ride. Tim's goal is that 60,000 mile patch by the end of summer. We are within approximately 1200 miles of that goal.

Crop Duster looked like it might be an Air Tractor (made in Texas)

We rode a while but the day was getting hot and we were getting hungry. We stopped at the Red Rooster on Hwy 66 east of Longmont. It is a cozy restaurant nestled in an industrial area we have ridden by a couple of times but never stopped. The place was packed and we had to wait a bit for a table. From the looks of the meals going by, it would be worth the wait. What a nice surprise. The Red Rooster is clean, nicely appointed and the food was reasonably priced and served up in generous portions. YUM!
Red Rooster - Longmont, CO - I love the sign that says "Danger Men Cooking"
B&G aka biscuits and sausage gravy with eggs and hashbrowns x2 - YUM!
The day was just too warm to ride and I think we are still a bit tired from last weekend's road trip. So, we took a roundabout way home and chilled for the rest of the day.
Clouds building over the High Park burn area
We hope we get some rain out of those clouds
It's HOT! Don't laugh Texas - ha!
Today's ride = 104.8 miles
