If you don't know where your going any road will take you there George Harrison
When you come to the fork in the road, take it Yogi Berra (Don't send it to me C.O.D.)

Stuffed myself with a 1/2 lb brisket fries and cornbread once I got up to the Texas BBQ place just east of Cold Spring
When you get to the higher elevations the temp naturally drops but there was no wind today and saw quite a few bikes on the road.
No pics today, was just havin too much fun to want to stop
Almost 3 hrs of fun. Hope some of you got out
Baldo,where do you work? I ride to the south Bronx most days before they move the clocks back an hour. Any wind time to me is a blessing
Dont want to be one of those who never misses an opportunity to miss an opportunity RIDE WHEN YOU CAN

Nice to hear about someone heading out for a ride. After a week in Toronto for work, now heading to Detroit and GR for another week. Hope the weather is still decent when I finally get home, as the old girl doesn't like to sit for more than a week generally. It ain't Florida on the southwest coast of BC, but it's usually not bad
