    Well today Hot Rider and I jumped on the Glide and just pointed the wheel and rode. After it was all said and done, we clocked just over 200 miles. Today was also the first time that Hot Rider has operated the camera from the passenger seat. Here are some just miscellaneous pictures of our day. Great Day, Just Perfect!!

    That is the best way to ride, just go any direction and see new areas.

    We did a little ride to Red River, New Mexico and back. The Red River Rally was in full swing, very windy and kind of cool in the 50's. 432 miles round trip. no pictures.

    I have been riding since the beginning on March. Up here the temps at that time are in the low 40's. I have about 4,000 miles on since March or since I bought the Glide. The LO has been with for about 2,000 of them.

    We had a good ride too today. A bit windy though. Looks like you were riding along the Minnesota river? Hope to get up that way again this summer.

    This was my purpose was to get her out for a longer ride on the Glide, but then to make her an active participant in the ride. We will be doing a lot of long distance riding next year so it is good practice.

    Big Jake, no, I am no where near the Minnesota River. These particular pictures are all with 15 miles of me where I live...
