I went for a motorcycle ride to Manning Park for lunch and then back. Rode up 16km of switchbacks to the sub alpine meadows.

I went for a long ride through the mountains of southern Austria with a motorcycle instructor(!) He was nice enough to slow down and wait for me after leaving me far behind in the twisty sections. I've gone riding before with people who were fast and reckless, but this guy is fast and good.

Yesterday did a bit of shopping had a lamb wrap for lunch then vegged out on a lawn chair for a couple of hours. Couple of adult drinks and a rib eye steak for dinner and another day in paradise wound down. Today? Who knows, a ride to Penticton, or maybe Rock Creek, who knows...???

Woke up about 2:00am this morning because of the storms we are having in Alabama, after getting to bed about 11:00pm, I was re-wiring my bike.

Got to work at 7:30am, the drive in was crazy, the weather is still bad and I will be here until 5:00pm, but can't wait to get home to finish wiring the bike
