The temps climbed to a sunny 50 degrees today so I had to take a little ride. It was a solo ride on the Blueridge Parkway starting near the Va border and going south about 40 miles. I only saw one other bike and very few cars. The hungry BS34s loved gobbling up the cold air and even with spirited riding I got 43 mpg. It was clear. I estimated visibility to be 60 plus miles and the scenery was spectacular as usual. The photos just can't do it justice.
