Quick ride before the rain

It has been about a week since my last ride, and I wanted to get a quick one.

Home is behind me about 20 minutes and the sky is starting to look llike rain. I made my turn-home corner and started to hear those little splats on my helmet. More on the windscreen of the bike.

I look skyward and feel it will not be heavy, but I head towards home without delay. That means no side trips. LOL Arrived home safely and without heavy rain. It was just some drops all the way home. Rain is on the way.

See you on the highway.

Ride, Fish, Ride

I wanted to go fishing, and I wanted to take a motorcycle. So, I loaded my minimalist Tenkara gear on the Moto Guzzi V7 Sport and headed to Stonelick State Park.

After catching four or five blue gills, I packed it in and took the long way home.

See you on the highway.

A visit to Cadre Cycle

Paid a visit to Cadre Cycle this morning. This is the Moto Guzzi dealership where I have purchased my Guzzis. There are a lot dealerships within big fancy buildings and lots of product bling. Cadre isn’t like that. Cadre is old school and where “everybody knows your name.” It’s my second family.

Enzo’s grey V7 Milano next to my grey V7 Sport.

Enzo Miller is the owner of Cadre. He is well versed in all things Guzzi and owns a few in addition to Cadre Cycle. One of the bikes he owns is a 2019 Moto Guzzi V7iii Milano. It’s a grey bike. When my V7 Sport was on order, we wondered if it was the same color as his Milano.

Today, I rolled my Sport next to his Milano to compare greys. They are very close, but just slightly off in color. We had a good chuckle about whose grey looked better. 

Afterwards, I rolled on for a ride home … the long way home. Stopped at Kroger for a few things for tonight’s planned dinner, lasagna. 

See you on the highway.
