    That day would have started for me with a bike photo in front of the Blue Fox cafe. What a fun town to ride in I bet. I often wonder if you guys out there have a longer than mid west riding season? Maybe rain hinders. What is the tourist season for whale watching?

        We don't get as much rain as a lot of people think here in Victoria. People assume we get the same as Seattle or Vancouver but in fact we get about 30 days less rainfall a year than both those places. Something to do with mountain ranges. I ride all year, not sure if I even missed a week of riding in the winter. We didn't see a single snow flake this past winter.
        As for the Blue Fox, yes great breakfast but a litttle too busy for me, don't like lining up.
        And the "Whale watching" is all year. Done it a couple of times myself. Very cool! Really feel fortunate to live here. But we pay for it.

          You should have come by and collected me! I could have added some sexy Kat to your photos.

            Snuck out for a short ride this morning while the baby napped and Mommy showered...



            ... pretty sure I spotted Trevor's GS750 parked at Tia's Heritage Cafe as I zipped by.

              Why yes, yes I did!









              Land Between the Lakes National Recreation area. Had the road to myself other than a couple of deer and a wild turkey.

              Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                Houston we have a problem! The stop sign was where I was trying to get to. Took a 10 mike detour to get there. Still fun though!

                    And you had a camera in one of those big bags.

                    Good that are not any storys of any road encounters with any of the deer or turkeys.

                      The first deer I encountered was standing right in the center of the road and stayed put until I stopped and tried to ease my camera out of the tank bag. Then he sauntered into the woods. A half mile later I saw another (or the same) deer crossing the road in the other direction. BTW, this was about 11:30 AM.

                        Found myself with an afternoon to myself.

                        Rode from Muskegon to Newaygo, like I have done before.
                        This time I did contact Greg78GS750 before hand, but he was not available.

                        THis ride goes along Muskegon river in places, and crosses over the river in places.
                        Have posted pics of along this route before. Tried to find new scenes for pics this time.




                        With a few hilly places and a few curvy places along the way.







                        Is just about 100 miles.

                          Got out with the Kat boys again today, and Sarah joined us on her Triumph for the first time in a while.

                          Looks like I've shaken my rain curse, the weather was perfect! Aside from the daily commute, this was my first good dry ride with the Sport Demons on, and I've done over 1000km's since they went on!





                          Had an MV Agusta Brutale and Husqvarna Nuda 900 park beside us at the Pitstop Cafe today too:

                                Is that snow? (never seen it)

                                Looks like quite a drop to the right there too...
