    Cable is a popular place for mountain bikers and cross country skiers. Most of the time it's no problem. Hayward is a zoo from Memorial Day to Labor Day.. We try to avoid town on weekends. Lots of MN and IL cars in the Walmart parking lot.

    Oh, and not a fan of the above golf cart... it is a golf cart, isn't it?

    Looks like the tires barely fit between those forks!

    The Super Cub left Sat morn for Ohio. Been looking for a 2022 Honda ADV150 but can’t find one local. A dealer in Beloit has 3 ordered but has no idea when they will come in.

    3 days ago I looked at a buddy’s 2005 Honda Big Ruckus. It was parked in his wood shop. He just called and said come and get it running for me then buy the darn thing. Hasn’t run in 3 years with gas in the tank 1/4 full.

    So tomorrow I take a fresh gal of sea foam laced non ethanol premium, a gas sucker outer, and my jumper pack.

    wish me luck he wants $3300 for it.

    I bought it. My buddy put a new battery in it yesterday. Once I pumped the old fuel out we turned her over and she fired!
    My wife says it’s the bike from the movie Dumb and Dumber.

    I took it up to 62 mph on the way home that’s fast enough for 16 year old tires. New rubber will be a winter project.

    I took the Wr250x out for a ride today. I drove out to a near by gravel pit and scavenged some left behind .223 brass. This might just be the last ride of the season. By the end of the week the day/night temps are supposed to be 35°/20°.

    The leaves are gone, the sky is gray...

    hmmmm, look what Honda just introduced in Thailand. A 350 with “dirt styled” tires and upside down sliders.

    Wonder if the USA will ever see it?

    I should correct my above post. It was introduced in Italy. It is manufactured in Thailand.

    ADV 350 I believe? The 150 is here already and apparently it's a popular ride. I bet it's nice. I have a little 50cc stir fry built scoot and it's a riot.

    I had this 2011 Ultra for a couple of years, but it was just too much of a boat. So I've since replaced it with a Road King and I still have the Valkyrie. But I'm posting this as it is a pic in front of a Regulation Motorcycle Spot, on Rt 5 in Vermont. The Putney General Store, great deli sandwiches and little old ladies that keep the store going.

    My new to me in Spring 2020 Harley-Davidson Road King. I bought it used with 1500 single-owner miles on it. Bone stock I've done a few mods to make it mine. It's got 10K+ miles on it now.
