Anybody still do em? It seemed like everybody did them back in the day. I finally got to take one today. rode about 300 miles, ate some good texas bbq, and drank some mexican cokes!...good times. when I left stopped to enjoy the sunrise. about 150 miles from my house. stopped by one of our vendors. home sweet home! I need to do this every sunday... car or bike.
Weather permitting, I do them all the time. It's my 'escape time'. I usually go out for two to three hours and just putt-putt/cruise around till I hit the mountains and 'schwing' a bit. I love it. It's freedom.
A ton of local guys still do Sunday rides around here. About 300 miles or so every Sunday that the weather permits. 95% curvy back roads. It's a great time. I wish I had more time to go on them.
I used to ride every single day I possibly could. I haven't ridden much in the past few months though do to my street bike getting jacked. It is killing me honestly. I'm getting on asap once I get my taxes back. So if anyone knows of a decent bike under 3k lmk. SUV's and f4i's are something I've been looking into. Ha #thread jack over
I hear ya. sundays are the only day that I dont work so I usually spend it with the wife and our family. I will just do these rides early in the morning so i still get my family time.
I still do the Sunday ride quite a bit. I usually leave around 7am to beat the traffic. It's my quite time inside my helmet!
I got about 70 miles in on my new-to-me Duc 748 today. It was about 56F (NE of Philly) when I got home, about 10F higher than they had predicted, so I was a bit over-dressed. Really enjoyed the bike, but I doubt my driver's license will last for too long with it on the street. I probably do 5-8 Sunday rides each season now, used to hit the "biker diner" every Sunday then take a half-day ride. Racing has filled up those Sundays. "I'd rather be riding my motorcycle thinking about God, than sitting in church thinking about riding my motorcycle."
I went for a weak ride today. I was heading up to get beer and my son said," what, you're not riding!" So I did. 2 miles.
Yeah, we ride them all over. Been to NC, AL, GA, Key West, etc. This pic is on the Pearl river here in Mississippi at flood stage . Is that a catalyst composites tail on yours?
