We ended up staying at the Two Wheel till Thursday morning. We did the Dragon, Skyway and Foothills parkway Monday. Got rained out for half of Tuesday. Did the run down to Georgia Wednesday. I ended up with 1700 miles for the trip. The FJR now has 101500 miles on her.

Wish that I had known you wanted to join us @B-Mac. 312 miles for me. We had lunch at the Boondocks in McConnellsville. Less than 200 miles and the FJR will have 100,000 miles.

Planning on riding the triple nickel tomorrow, 6/24. I always run it from the northern most point south to the end. Anybody interested?

@Likwidthat’s a nice looking Beemer. Sport touring is the way to go, not everybody wants a Wing.

Totes, I know all about them, 30 years in an advance DC

That sucks!

Join us.

We are leaving on Sunday, the 27, staying at the Two wheel inn till Wednesday, possibly Thursday.

My bud, Roamr just text me about a gap trip. We are leaving either 6/27 or 6/28 for 4 days. Hoping to get a room at the 2 Wheel Inn.

Took the FJR out for a ride today. Needed to make sure that everything was good after my hose and coolant replacement. 270 miles, I picked up 83 south at Millersburg, followed it down to 78 into McConnellsville. 669 north to 22 to 668. Great ride, little traffic.

Delaware strand?

I got the last 2 hoses for my coolant and hose replacement, today. Need to get it back together tomorrow and make sure I have no leaks.

$3000?

Planning on putting it back together and starting and checking it for leaks before I put the Tupperware back on. Then a nice test ride.

Thank you for all the nice replies. Physically mom is in much better shape than my RN wife figured she was. It is hard since me and mom were always close.

The better half went with me to see mom, today. So depressing! Physically mom can feed herself, but she can’t walk. Mentally she is bad. She asks the same questions over and over! She can’t even remember how old she is! Anyway, waiting on 3 more hoses for the FJR. Once they show up and I put her back together, I am going to disappear for week or so on the bike! Planning on camping and heading for the Dragon area. I have only got one ride in this year!

Interested

Got the FJR torn apart, drained the antifreeze, found the leak, replacing all the hoses.

I am going to change the coolant and replace the hoses on the FJR, tomorrow. On the only ride that I have taken this year I kept smelling antifreeze when I stopped. I hope that I ordered all the hoses that I need. Not looking forward to it.

Yep! He is truly fucked up and bitter about his life.

We just got done having it out. He says that he isn’t going to see her anymore. Just really tired of it all! I have only talked about half of all the BS that I have been through with this whole thing.

I need to rant about this! Mom is still in the nursing home and will be there till she passes. Sometimes when I go down to see her she is good and we have a nice visit. The next time it is not so good. I went down Wednesday to see her. When I got there she wasn’t in her room. They went and got her. As soon as she came into the room I could see that she was hysterical! I asked her what was wrong, she said everything and that my little brother had been there and that they had got into an argument! What the fuck! It took me over an hour to get mom calmed down. My brother is a total asshole that has driven almost everybody in his life away, even his only daughter. He is an alcoholic and a compulsive liar! I am not really a violent man, but!

Something like that @Pauly. Doesn’t matter where I heard it.

Just deleted mine before I saw your post @2talltim

If I could have two bikes, I would have already bought this!
