Colorado, USA
We rolled over the 16,000 mile mark on The Ride today on a 49 mile jaunt over the dam, around frozen lakes and along the country lanes in the area.
When we left Colorado last Thursday evening, temps were in the single digits and considerable ice-pack from the last snow remained on the streets. We were happy to see the ice had disappeared upon our return last night after a quick trip to Texas. Still a little tired and weary after our trip, a 49 mile ride with temps in the mid 50s was just enough to clear the head and put a smile on the day.
Yep, that's a grin on his face. A call this morning said come in to work later than usual - with temps in the mid 50s... there wasn't much of a problem figuring out what to do with a couple of extra afternoon hours.

The Ride's first outing with all the new chrome
Looks like a great ride and a good day to hit the 16K mark.
ReplyDeleteIt was on both counts... hoping for some sort of repeat later today :)
