R, I am so jealous. We are supposed to get rain on Friday and sun and mid 40's on next Saturday. That will be my first opportunity.
Fingers are crossed.

Big D... I figure that You will get warmer before I do. I am trying to talk the wife into moving to IN. We have two daughters going to school in Bloomington. Looks like a great part of the country.

dprag- I live in East-central IN... just plain, flat farm country. But the area around Bloomington and Brown County, and the Hoosier National Forest is truly God's country. I ride down around there every chance I get.

Here's a shot or two I took on a solitary ride I did last summer. (Ha! I was only going to the hardware store... wound up running out 2 tanks o' gas!)

This is IN state rd. 46 about 20 miles out of Bloomington.

I have a NJ friend that gets a kick out of strange town names... I took this for her...

In nearby Greensburg, the claim to fame here is the tree growing out of the courthouse tower. Been there ever since I can remember! (I'm 55)

Thought you'd get a kick outa these, dprag. Always carry a little camera on rides nowadays...

Big D....My one daughter pointed out Gnaw Bone on my last trip. lol I wish that it wasn't such a long ride. I always get jealous of all the bikes when I am out there.

Fatboy....Where are you from? the plate on the back of the bike doesn't look familiar.
