Last ride of the 2008

I took my last "ride" of the year this morning. Threw on my jacket and helmet, climbed on top of Kermit, and off I went...to the gas station down the road. OK, so not really a long ride...maybe 8 miles. But I was able to fill the gas tank so that I could finish winterizing the bike.

But this is the time of year when you start planning your trips for the next year. VROC has a rally in Kentucky where over a hundred Vulcan riders will converge on a single location. My plans are to hit 6 states in a week, and log between 1,000 - 1,500 miles in various type of riding - flat straight highways and mountain roads.

A large figure eight, seeing all over the Midwest!
