It's a fairly quick ride. Cost $2.00 a piece, saves a bunch of time going across the bridge at Ripley. I dunno on the next one. I'm gettin' windows in the house next weekend. The following weekend, leaving for Az. for a week. Might be it for me for awhile unless I take a half day off work.

O.K. I'm checking out this Buell insanity right now. I been contemplating buying a new ( to me ) bike, most of my friends are switching to the big twin Harleys. Never owned one but have rode several hundred miles on a couple different Harleys. But, I really wanted a new FJ1300, I love that bike. But the prices on these Buells are great, I'm looking. How much lead time do you need for a vaca. day from work?

The ferry runs back and forth between Augusta, Ky. and US52, about 2 miles west of higginsport, roughly mp6?

Started in Wilmington, met Dan in Danville ( no kidding), out SR138 from Hillsboro, to Buford, SR134 south, SR32east, US62 south, to Ripley. US52 west, ferryride to Augusta. RT.19, a little of 10, US27 to Cythinana, backtrack to the ferry. SR125 west to SR774 in Hamersville. US68north, cut across a County RD. back to Buford, 134 to the house. 246.5 miles.

Let me know. I told you I got some good roads in the southern part of the State. Although I don't know my way around KY. too well. I'm thinkin' about starting in Alexandria, running 10/22 back up the river to Greenup, Ky. then running 253 back to US52 to SR125. That's probably a 300+ miler.

The wife and i rode the Busa on a 425 mile route last summer in Ohio. She deserved a medal for that.
