We did make a nice ride of about 150 miles on Thursday. It's always great to ride with family & friends, especially on curvy country roads.

We enjoyed seeing this eye-popping Camaro when we stopped for ice cream.


Paul - I hope you get your bike running soon - There's still lots of Summer to enjoy on two wheels.

The rest of my ride report is at My Motorcycle Chronicles:

I was out for another ride in April this past Friday. It was a beautiful day in south-central Pennsylvania.





I crossed the river & visited Lancaster County, perusing the area around Marietta & Bainbridge.





I rode about 100 miles in all. You can peruse the rest of the story by clicking below, then look for my 2023 report page:

Wonderful Ken, happy you had another good day.
I’m so looking to get over your way and share some road. Allegheny is approaching but my bike is fighting me. Stumbling with some back firing.putting her back up on the lift again tomorrow, sigh. But we’ll overcome just the same.

I was out riding in May. It was a cool day but not requiring my leather jacket. The sky had white clouds drifting across a very bright blue background.


This was a particularly nice tree lined street. I love seeing the character of the old growth trees, whether in the middle of a field or shading someone's lawn.

I rode for about 50 miles and thoroughly enjoyed myself.

I was riding with my brother on a nice May day.


At the moment, this is the state of the Children's Lake in Boiling Springs.

The weather cooperated nicely and we enjoyed a few hours on the twists & turns of our local country roads.

We are approaching Memorial Day for 2023.
Here is a beautiful patriotic scene from a ride I made on July 4, 2020.



This and many others are among My 100 Favorite KT Ride Pictures
at My Motorcycle Chronicles.


I'm not sure when or how often I will get out for more ride reports in the next few months.
Due to some pressing medical issues, my undivided attention is needed at home.
I hope you take a look at my past ride reports and enjoy my favorite pics.

Yet another wonderful ride with your brother!
After my mishap in Pennsylvania I was able to get home with my bike, thank you Brian. Parts came in and back riding again. Details to come in a PM to you.

Ken, great write up as always. Hoping for the best with the medical issues and that you are able to get a ride or two in as prime riding season is upon us.

I will keep you in my thoughts a prayers.
