(although, I suspect, maybe slab to Ohio, then Norm & Steve might have some interesting roads from there.)

From my house we'll slab it to Steve's house. We don't want to be late for Steve's tour of his ultimate motorcycle shop, or lunch that Mrs Steve(graciously) has to offer. Then we just follow Steve to Bedford. 👍My Motorcycles:
22 Kawasaki Z900 RS (Candy Tone Blue)
22 BMW K1600GT (Probably been to a town near you)
82 1100e Drag Bike (needs race engine)
81 1100e Street Bike (with race engine)
79 1000e (all original)
82 850g (all original)
80 KZ 650F (needs restored)

Downs
Short 2 hour ride looping up to Bonham SP and back. Rescued a turtle from the middle of the road and found historical cemeteries every 10 miles it seemed. Found an abandoned county road in Fanin county. Was going to explore it but lots of recent rain and being alone I decided to stick to pavement today. Rounded it out woth a cold one at Corner Street Pub.

Looks like a really nice ride Downs. We're still waiting for warmer weather up here in Michigan. I lived in Austin and San Antonio for a total of about 23 years; lots of great roads for riding in Central Texas. Thanks for sharing!

Does riding and leaning in the car count? I was on a gorgeous winding road in Tennessee this morning - State hwy 230 - and spent the entire 10-20 miles leaning from one side of the car to the other. I’d like to go check it and any others down there out on the bike some dayCowboy Up or Quit. - Run Free Lou and Rest in Peace

I find myself incorporating many riding habits, such as leaning, into my driving. Muscle memory, wishful thinking, or just practicing for later on, whatever it is usually brings a smile to my face.

The oncoming turn lane had a car doing the same thing, waiting for traffic to clear but he couldn't see around us. Without thinking, my son leaned over to let the oncoming left Turner see around him. Pointless move because the van, not his body, was obstructing the view. He just gave me funny duh like look and chuckled a bit.
