Kick Back, and Relax :-)

/ ridingwithgary


There’s no riding for me today.

Good day to wash the bike and get three days of road grime off. I will leave Henderson with one of the cleanest machines around.

Over the past three days, I spent 18 hours in the saddle, and added 800 miles to my odometer.

With beautiful desert weather and a nice pool at the Bowman house, it’s time to cool my jets.

Pool time in Henderson.

Tomorrow, Dave and I leave the comfort of his Henderson hacienda, and begin 21 straight days of riding. Once we leave Casa Bowman, I’ll have 5,000 miles ahead of me before returning to Carbondale. Taking a day off is not a tragedy.

I plan to enjoy my day of leisure. See you in the morning.

My number today: 1,025 (weight, in pounds, of my fully loaded Harley — including me — when I hit the road tomorrow)

What’s your number?

  1. Gary: Looking forward to hearing more as you take off on another adventure. I am much missing Kay Herring these days. I think you knew she died last summer of Lymphoma cancer…and is sorely missed by me and many others. I can’t remember where you guys live nowadays. Is it in Las Vegas? Let me know, as I may tour west one of these days. best, erik peterson

    • So sorry to hear about Kay, Erik. I didn’t know. My dad died from lymphoma, too. He was 69.

      We live in Carbondale CO, about 25 miles from Aspen. Would love to see you. Let us know when you’re out west.

      Vroom!
