Experience the RIDE

It has been over a month since I made an entry. WOW time does fly. I have definitely been riding but our camera is on the fritz. I can still write but somehow it does not mean as much without the visual. Well, I can not just skip life so I thought I would barrow some photos and march forward with the blog. The weather this summer had been very cooperative. We have had a few evening showers but lady luck has shone down and keep the isolated showers out of the riding zone. Paula and I have had some wonderful rides in the local area. I want to share one from this past week. It was an over stress day at the office for me and Paula the other day. After dinner Paula asked if we could take the Harley out. Who am I to refuse such an offer from a loving and adorable wife? So off we went for an hour of cruse’n down HWY 41. This is a nice stretch of road with a few twists and turns and very little traffic. We scooted out about 30 miles where we picked up HWY 80 and headed back to town. Paula said she had a real Harley experience on this ride. She closed her eyes allowing the roar of the Electra Glide, the rush of the wind, and the momentum of the ride bond her to the bike. She really distressed on this one. I actually felt a little jealous. I can’t close my eyes and enjoy a ride like that. Not and drive, but then again she hasn’t experienced the thrill of being in control as you thunder down the road on the Glide either. I guess were even. I wouldn’t be excited at the thought of being in the back seat of my Harley, but I love it when Paula occupies that prestigious spot. I’m not sure how I’ll survive the next four days. I will be out of town and unable to ride. I put the Glide in the shop for its 20m check up. Might as well use the down time for something useful, right? I hope I can concentrate while I am gone, this is a business trip not pleasure. However ---- I am starting to plan how Paula and I can have another Harley experience when I get back home. Until then:
