Not sure if the tire tracks will show up on little screen phones but I'm guessing someone in a car took the inside of the corner at high speed. I don't care if folks take curves at speed but geez.. stay in yer own lane so ya don't endanger oncoming cars and especially bikes!

Found some gravel in the middle of my line through a curve. KPR 200 wiggled a little but just carried on.

Stopped at what is locally called "The Hippie Tree" yesterday. It's a favorite spot for riders to pull over and B S for a bit. And obviously someone not only created it but is taking very good care of it and the area around it.

That sucker had a hard life! Looks like it got zapped by lightning. I love the little, almost pointless, definitely passive aggressive trash can. I hope that thing is anchored to the ground because a stiff wind might blow it into traffic.

Went out and played today and found some new curves...

I can't help but if you were to post that in the ATV section of the forum I'm sure someone there could.

Finally temps in the middle 50's and my KPR 200 (thumperette) started right up. But being of a mature age, way too mature!! perhaps, I just putt putted and enjoyed the day and the bike.

Does that mean I really am an old fart?

Looks like I not only need to make new shoe skid plates but also need new shoes. It was a very fun day today.

Ummmm.... I know I committed sacrilege today by leaving my KPR 200 home and taking my 400 KRT instead but I wanted to share this encounter with several deer. Never saw so many deer until this year. I was beginning to wonder if he (she? gender neutral?) was ever going to cross the road.

Sometimes everything goes perfectly until the last curve....

This would have been a really fun bit of road but was unbelievably rough. Rattled the fillings in my dentures!!!! Wonderful Michigan roads.
