Got back from Sturgis - it was fabulous btw!!! - looked at my back tire and was SHOCKED to see that there was not a drop of tread left on it!  I thought to myself, "What the @#%&@...I just put a new tire on my bike in May!!!!"  Then I added up the miles I've ridden since May - 10,000 miles in the past four months!!!  I couldn't believe it - but then I felt better about putting ANOTHER new tire on my bike!!!

I've noticed that the daylight is dwindling away about 7:30-8:00 these days and am already getting depressed about winter coming...it feel like summer just got here!!!!  What the heck!? Once my daughter graduates high school, I am heading for some southern state where its warmer and I can ride my bike more months of the year!!!

Checked my mileage after getting home from myrtle last night - tomorrow will be one year since I bought this bike (2002 heritage softail) - I put 12, 500 miles on my bike in one year!!!!  Pretty proud of that!

What a fabulous ten days on my motorcycle!!!!  Myrtle was a blast and the weather was great - cept for Thursday - but the trips to and from myrtle were every bit as wonderful as the week at the beach - maybe even better!!!  Nothing like cruising through God's country with the wind in your hair!

Went the scenic route through Tennessee - fabulous, aside from having to wear a helmet!  Went through Land Between the Lakes and the Smokey Mountains - took three days to get there - FABULOUS!!!

Had a blast in Myrtle - checked out all the vendors - spent way too much money - stopped at the all the hot spots - drank way too much beer - danced, socialized, met up with a friend from the beach and some other friends from around here - too much fun!!!!

Went through Kentucky on the way back - to avoid the helmets!  Beautiful country there too - nearly got killed coming through the mountains on the interstate, though!  Too bad we have to share the roads with stupid people!!!  Rode 12 hours on Friday - not a cloud in the sky - two lane highways most of the way - what a tremendous day!!!  Wish I could figure out a way to make a living at riding my bike!  Not a drop of rain the whole way home - no problems - nothing but blessings!!!

It was good to get home and see my kids and my darling little bulldog...not so good to be back to work today!  :(  I'm ready to go again!!!!

If you haven't been to bike week in myrtle - you MUST go!!!!  It's the best in my opinion - because it's so spread out there that you can actually RIDE YOUR BIKE!!!  Gotta run - be blessed!!!  Jesus Freak
