Honey Run Inn - a place to reconnect with nature, yourself or what we chose - the fluffy bed, pillows, unlimited channels and cold beer after dodging the rain for most of the day.  The furniture stores were plentiful, although we never found the leather shop and I'm going to have to go back for pie.

Its Birthday Weekend

Southern Ohio  - more to come - wanted to get the maps out there.

The Tracker

New app on the phone - The Tracker - not as user friendly as I had hoped - but we did get out and ride yesterday, albeit a little less mileage and not quite far enough outside of 270 to completely pacify my desire - but there will be more days - and they will come more often.  This I will be sure of.

Thanks to my handy mechanical genius Mark - the F800 had a fresh oil change in the morning.  She was quite happy as was her handler.

A bite at the Rusty Bucket at our trips end - and another sunset on the horizon.

OH, WV, KY

75 Degrees - and off we go to southern Ohio to re-discover roads again.  The first weekend ride of the year and the bikes performed perfectly.  A quick trip across the bridge in Ironton and Gallipolis means we only have 47 more states to go.  The trees started blooming, the gear was quite cooling and the martini's were perfectly mixed at our stop for the night.  Walmart was very helpful in getting Mark's first oil change - Ohio hospitality is not to be dismissed.

Rolled back into Columbus after winding around the triple nickle.  The F800 seemed to like it quite well too.  About 450 miles of an exhilarating few days.  I'm hoping to get a map of our routes.  Stay Tuned.
