100 mile ride.

Post by longfiredragon »

Just got back a 100 mile with the son-in-law. Best time of the year to ride in Florida. Pictures are from the wildlife refuge. Got stopped by the draw bridge. Good thing we weren't trying to outrun the cops. Lol. Always amazes me how good of an all around bike the turbo is, decent comfort, great speed and not bad in the corners for it's age.

Now that I miss! damn...had a Cat EXT back in MN days. Couldn't wait for the snows to hit and get out for Christmas break for 10 days in WI or MI.

Looks like you guys had a great time riding Darryl. :thumbup

riturbo, thanks going to try. That is a bitch about up north, the riding season ends. Wife and I have property in TN. Might end up there in our retirement years, love it in the summer, but will suck not to ride in winter, if I am even still riding then. As far sledding or snow mobiling you can have that, not for me, am not ,20 anymore and no desire to freeze my nuts off. Lol.

Yes, Whitehorse is out of the question :rofl: riturbo, I have riding both sleds and snow mobiles, I have lived all over up north until I was in my mid 20's before I moved to Florida. But again in my youth, not much desire now.
