Is it really the end of December in Montana? It sure doesn’t feel like winter but looking ahead on the weather app it appears things might be changing. I’ve put the bike away twice for winter and taken it back out to enjoy another ride and today it was the same. The last time I put it away, a week or so ago, I didn’t put it in it’s usual slumber location all the way back in the garage and needed to move it a bit to fit the ‘83 Volvo 240 in there with it. With the temperature at 50 degrees and the roads clear, why not a short ride.
I didn’t have but a few hours and I thought about a longer one but once I got up on the highway above the rimrocks, I noticed a pretty strong wind that certainly takes the fine out of it. So, I rode the new Skyline Drive to Akali Creek Road and took that to the base of Airport Road and back to Zimmerman. It felt great.
