Midnight Rider
Saturday I finely had a chance to take my recently resurrected low mileage 86 K75T for a short ride. I live in a rural area and have just started to explore my new neighborhood.
I was pleased to see a very rough section had been recently resurfaced (no stripes yet) it consists of long curves over rolling terrain. I had no plan other than follow one road to the next and see where I wound up. WellÔÇö I had no real sense of where I was when I found the pictured set of curves. When I finely got home I used google maps to retrace my route, and plan a more direct path back to ÔÇ£the curvesÔÇØ after all I had to go back and ride it again on Sunday. I have found some of the best roads by accident or by just going out and getting lost. The best part of this short ride is there was no traffic, I think I saw three cars while on the back roads between the main hwys. IÔÇÖm gradually creating a loop of winding roads for those days when I only get an hour or so of ride time. Living in Houston I used to ride 200 miles just to get to the heart of the hill country for some hills and curves, now living in rural Oregon IÔÇÖm spoiled by lightly traveled well maintained roads that offer a challenge at 50 mph. Now when I need an attitude adjustment I choose the blacktop rather than the pop top (never liked drinking out of cans anyway).
So my adviceÔÇö go get lost. I donÔÇÖt need no stinkinÔÇÖ GPS.
