In which I start working on my 1966 R 60/2.

Back from vacation and ready to ride.

Ride down was chilly but not bad. Used jacket liner instead of flannel. Decided to use some freeways there & back for expediency. Not riding through Chesterfield County on US 360 again if I don’t have to.

Breakfast with Kermit at the 2400 Diner in Fredericksburg.

New world record! Just kidding. Maybe. 400-mile weekend though, plus 70 or so miles on Friday for lunch. Might be the farthest I’ve ridden this bike in one weekend so far.

Met Scott in Victoria VA at La Victoria Mexican Restaurant. Had a big burrito filled with refried beans, rice and grilled shrimp. Mostly beans & rice. Tasty.

Tool kit is progressing – I ordered some more bits after comparing what I have to what was in the kit under the seat.


When it comes to replacing the front turn signals on your (liquid-cooled) R 1200 GS, there’s an easy way and a hard way. Wes and

I rode back to Morton’s again (AGAIN!) today using US 301 and VA 2. I thought they had some event going on and people were going to be there, but I must have gotten the day wrong. They had donuts though, so that was nice.
