Leaving VERY early in the AM for Bellaire, MI...gonna
meet some friends there...
Going over the top, through Mackinaw City...
You know...just so I can sing, "Twelve hours out of Mackinaw City I stopped in a bar and had a brew..."
I figure that's somewhere near the Iowa, Ill border...and that's about 15 hours out of Dallas. Trying for at least that far tomorrow. I'll definately need a brew about then...
Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan...yeah, it's time to get out and run hard.
Oh, and I get to ride the Mackinac bridge. Love that thing. Here's a pic from the last time I rode over it...that's my friend James in front of me. I'm going solo this time.

Almost exactly 1500 miles, Dallas to Bellaire. The Valk's ready to go. I suppose I ought to pack.
Maybe I'll carry the laptop...it's been having trouble getting started so it may be useless. Durn.
I'll be gone a week...y'all be safe...if you see a fat guy riding hard on a Valkyrie, wave!
And I'll see you on the road.
