Father's Day Ride with the Zebulon Cruisers

I lead a ride on Father's Day, for the Zebulon Cruisers, Meetup.com motorcycle group. It was a 200 mile run thru the back roads of Teller Co. Colorado. It was a good group of 6 riders on all types of bikes and trikes and it was "HOT", even in the mountains it was in the high 80's and on the plains, 90 to 100F, YIKES!

Since I was leading it was an easy cruise as being 60+ my "Need For SPEED" days are far behind me, LOL! ;) Up Hwy. 24 W. over Ute Pass, then to Florissant, CO. to pick up Teller Co. Rd. 1 to the Evergreen Station for a break, then Teller Co. Rd. 11 to Bailey, CO., then CO. Hwy. 9N. to Hartsel for a fuel stop and CO. Hwy. 24 E. back to the Springs. 3 of us pulled off at Woodland Park and picked up CO. Hwy. 67 N. to Deckers, CO. for lunch. It's a really sweet twisty little road but even there it was HOT! After a good lunch we headed back to the Springs to get in some AC! :)

Ride to Westcliffe, CO. with the Zebulon Cruisers

Last Saturday I lead a ride up to the Rancher's Roost Cafe in Westcliffe, CO. for the Zebulon Cruisers a Meetup.com motorcycle group and we had a beautiful sunny day around 200 miles round trip and a great lunch with good company! Some of the Zeb's were new members so it was great to meet them and get to ride with them. Looking forward to the next ride! :)

BUMMER!!

Well due to financial problems, unexpected family and awaiting a new rear tire for the Sporty, we've been limited to "battery charge runs" over the month of May, arrugh!!!!! Hopefully the tire will be in by next Wednesday and we can get it put on before next weekend!   As stated before our Sporty takes a very specific tire due to it's being "low profile" and for some reason my local dealer won't keep a set in stock so there's always 10 days needed to order the tire, RATS! :(

Missed some great rides with our motorcycle meetup.com group, Zebulon Cruisers so hopefully in June we will be able to hook up and RIDE!  Hope your luck is better than ours and you've been out riding and putting on the SMILES! :)
