The Summer Mountain Ride in West Virginia begins Thursday the 19th. This is another MTF event and I am looking forward to seeing bunch of old friends and meeting a few new ones.
The first 2 days are Dual Sport Guided and then Saturday is an open ride day. I will not be there in time for Thursday as I have to work but will be riding overnight so that I can join in Friday's Rough Road Ride..
It rained earlier this morning and so I did not ride anywhere. I packed up my clothes and hardware, checked the chain and lubed it, checked the oil and basically made the bike ready. I am taking the F650 GS, AKA Grasshopper... Its about a 700 mile trip and on the short windshield and stock seat it will be a tough jaunt down. Add in the riding overnight, well suffice to say I need to be extra careful. I do plan to be able to stop and snooze a couple times over night which will help.
I got my gps routes all completed and loaded. That includes my down and back, the MTF flower sniffer routes and some DS waypoints Andy sent me.
Thats about all for now... all is good and I am excited for the trip.
