The 2024 Season Has Begun
March 10, 2024
It might be debatable in some circles but I am calling winter over and it’s time to start riding again. The truth be told, I took the bike out for a very short ride two weeks ago but that was primarily to see how I fit on the seat after my recent surgery. Last January 9th I had some work done and I was concerned that there might be a problem but everything is fine. I just needed two more weeks of healing before doing a longer ride.
Today was the day. Bill had changed th gearing on his KLR and wanted to check the speedometer against mine so we headed out north on Highway 3 about 11 am. I gave him some signals and he noted his speedometer readings and then we pulled over a few miles from Acton to confer. It seems that the speedo just registers about 2 miles higher than mine so all is well.
Bill took the lead and we rode to Lavina. It’s a beautiful day with clear skies and the temperature in the low to mid-50s. Very little wind. Just outside Lavina I got a bug splat in the middle of my face shield so we stopped so I could clear that and grab some photos.
