Sunday Shannon, Geoff and I went on a little ride to visit my old friend Elizabeth on her farm in Marion. This was my first ride on the new bike and I was pleasantly surprised. On the interstate I was cruising at between 65 and 80 and it really handled well, on forest service road with street tires I felt good – but on dirt, not so much. I was spinning tires bad on leaves and wet clay and riding with Elizabeth on the back I hit some soft mud, spun out and fell over. No one was hurt and now the bikes been christened so all in all it was great day.
