Got in one last ride today.  Got on the road by 10:30 and it was still a bit chilly.  No planned route just a destination... Hometown of Platte.

Made it in time to have ma buy me dinner. Perfect timing!

Got a round of golf in with the old. We won't talk about the score

Had to head out early to beat the darkness.

Snapped a few photos of the old bike. I believe she's sorted out. Another 140 miles today

It was a fine weekend for a ride. Great when we're able to have such good weather mid November.
Looking for & locating places like this helps with the monotony we have with riding the flatlands!

Dog, Where is that? I've heard about it but never really knew where it was. I had a patient one day that said it landed on her farm but never got the time to pick her brain anymore about it. I think she was in White Lake and that is reported as being the area of the landing.
Did I ever tell you: " I HATE MUD!" ?

GB,

Searching Google gives the general area of the landing site! It's kind of fun to poke around & locate it.

From Aurora Center go 1 mile north then, head west. You will run into this sign.

Ripped by that area around 11:30 am on sunday.  I try to take a different route every time.  The silo was SW of stickney just a few miles..

What's this last ride of the year stuff?  If the streets are dry, you can ride. You should have kept that green meeny and studded the tires.  :)

Or there is this guy.
