the adirondacks

[nathan12]

A friend and I went on a nice ride on saturday into parts of the adirondack mountains in new york. Not to long of a ride, but the weather was beautiful and we saw a ton of other bikes out. there is nothing like the views and smells and winding mountain roads of this place. we both happen to have suzuki gs 1100's, his a stripped down gk, mine a gL. I owned the gk and sold it to him a couple years ago and then found the current one in a garage for 200 dollars. 9,000 miles on it when i bought it. yay for me.anyway hopefully soon we will be heading even deeper into those roads. also, as a side note, on the way back I saw a bike on the road side and had to turn around to see...it was another gs 1100, though this noe had seen better days. the guy said his son had been beating on it for a few years. he told me that it used to be his, but he was cut off and hit a car with it. he rebuilt the front end and gave it to his son and used the settlement money to buy a sportster 1200. he told me that for long rides, he wishes he had the gs and that he will be rebuilding it soon. fun times.
