August

Well gang I finally completed my ride report from my NPT and Smoke Chasing ride. Check out my post, it was a lot of fun but glad to be home. Since getting home, I have been focusing on getting ready for this years LOE rally. Currently we have 27 riders signed up, I'm hoping we can get to at least 40 riders.

The Wing is in pretty good shape after the ride. It needs new tires and brakes but every thing else seems okay. I've been on several short rides in New Mexico checking out the fire damage in Los Alamos and the Caldera. I have taken my son over to the Petroglyph National Monument to collect the park stamp. We are planning to ride to a few more before school starts in a couple of weeks. My has made a run to Jemez with my wife for lunch and jumped in on a couple of rides with people I work with. Believe it or not I have 17,000 miles on my Elite-3s and they are really showing the miles. Need to change them soon.

Well I still have not done the tire but the bike is running well. I did do an oil change last week and took my son for a ride into the mountains. We took out National Park Passport and picked up the stamp for Bandelier National Monument. We then cruised to a couple of landmarks in the area before heading to lunch. We ended up meeting his mom and a friend for lunch before heading for the house. It was my sons longest ride 200 miles. Here are a couple of pictures.




Well until next time,

Ride Safe.
