This a bike ride post.

Started at about 43F.  Luckily I stopped for gas just a few minutes from home and realized I hadn't plugged myself in to the Gerbing heat controller.   Roll Eyes

On top of the Richard Russell Parkway it was bout 35F at the ice wall. I left it too late this season to get a stunning photo.

Some photos that the Relive app didn't capture









This one of the cheeses I bought. The shop had it for $19.95 a pound.

The Chattahooche Cheese Market is on the north side of Helen by the junction to Unicoi State Park.


The other was an English Blue Stilton at (gulp) $30 a pound.

It's been a while since I bought some good cheese.

Home and it was about 55F.

Saw 2 sports bikes. One BMW dual sport. 1 Victory. I H-D.

Be sure to give us a report on the cheese you did buy. I’m not a cheese fan but I could be I suppose, I’m getting a little more adventurous in my later years.

Good report Paul.

When I'm at a restaurant (rarely) and asked what cheese I want, I say.... yellow.   Grin

Though I might want Swiss, once in a blue roka moon.

Got a short ride in today also, The wife even went with. Had to stay on back roads as the bridges are covered in brine and highways are covered in salt dust.
Blacktops were sandy so we just cruised slowly. 54° and sunny, Supposed to be  -9° and snow for Wednesday night   tickedoff

 cooldude Very nice getting out and reporting your venture. It looks like the day warmed up nice. The Relive app is really a plus allow others to follow one's route. Great picture along the way are always good to see. I look forward to getting up that way for InZane and riding N. GA as well. Thx,  coolsmiley

I really like it. Suspension is superb. Plenty of power. Waiting on my new seat from diamond then i can measure for the new windshield. One thing it will never take the place of a valk but its close.
