I love living and riding in the Southeast USA

We got some snow last night.  It was really cool and made it feel like Christmas!  The next two days are supposed to be sunny and cool but warm enough for a short ride.  I'll find some excuse to go for a ride later today.

Is that your home?  It looks like you have a 4-stall garage for all your toys!

I have a three car garage.   Well that's what it's supposed to be.  I don't actually park any cars in it

I found an excuse to go for a ride this morning.  We were out of bananas!  I waited until it was around 40 degrees and headed off for Wally World.  There was still snow in places although it melted anyplace that wasn't shaded.



So I spent around 57 cents getting the bananas and headed home for a total ride of around 18 miles.  It would be a shorter trip but I normally take some detours to make for a better ride.

Lovely blue skies!  Could you send some over the pond for us please?  Grey and wet here

I went for a walk yesterday.  The sun was so bright it hurt my eyes.  Between the blues skies and snow on the roofs of the houses and nearly 50 degree temperatures is as absolutely beautiful.  That's why I love living here.  My parents moved down to Alabama from Ohio this summer.  My Mom said that up there they don't normally get much sunshine this time of year. 

Today is supposed to be even nicer than yesterday.  I WILL be going for another ride!

I was able to come up with two excuses to go ride today.  First I was running low on ICE CREAM!  Can't be running out of ice cream   Second was that the ADV scooter tag would be an easy grab for me.  The current tag was "end of road".  So I headed off in the opposite direction of the grocery store and took this pic to grab the tag:



Then I rode to the grocery store.  On the way home I took a slight detour to get a new tag.  The new tag is Helicopter or Military aircraft.  I took both pics with my phone so the quality is not nearly as good as the pics I normally get with my camera.

It was nearly 70 degrees today so I got out and rode around 50 miles or so.  Storms will be rolling through this evening and drop the temperatures down with a high around 45 tomorrow.  That's still warm enough to go riding but 70 is much nicer.

The weather is one of the reasons I live here.  We do get some miserable weather over the winter but it's mixed in with some pretty nice weather so I never park the bikes for long.

During the summer it gets pretty hot here but I can just head for the mountains to get out of the heat.

45 and sunny today.  Perfect for a 20 or so mile ride. 

OK, maybe this road wasn't perfect for my worn out tires.

This tower is for bird watching.



I used it to get a pic of my Like from above.

Looks like a bluebird sky day for a nice ride and I am envious as I sit here with snow and 0 deg on the thermometer!  Thank you for posting and yes that road did look slippery

Another day in the 60s today although there was a small chance of rain.  That didn't stop me and a bunch of friends from getting out and riding.

Great pictures as usual! I want to see a picture of YOU while you take a picture behind while in a turn! This activity is akin to light in a cigaratte and pouring a cup of coffee while intercepting the glide slope and localizer all at once!
