Thanks for sharing the details of your ride. Sounds like a great time  
and I guess the weather was great.
I didn't get any riding in at all this weekend. Bummer. Other  
priorities.
Long weekend trip to Norfolk, VA visiting a college. Nice and warm  
there. Enjoyed the town and being down by the water.
Only negative is 5 hours each way in the car.
Hope to see you all on the roads next weekend :-)
