I think I said it was supposed to be something like 99 here and 97 in Cumming, GA when I posted earlier this morning. BULLCHIT! It was HOT today. Renea and I put down a little over 450 miles. We took the scenic route down to GA this morning via US 64 to US-41A to I-24 to I-75. Renea wanted to eat at Jim Oliver's Smoke House. That was a pretty decent ride, but from then on out, it felt like someone installed heat shrink guns all over my scooter. Oil tank temp got up to 246 at one point...............but I was really pushing the bike to get to Roswell. Met flyingwillie and Tbone there at Killer Creek HD. It felt good to go inside the store. Renea did some snoopin' for a helmet. Couldn't find one that fit. Headed up to my Brother's house in Cumming, GA. Got lost. There has been so much construction since we were last there in 2004, that I didn't know where I was until we were right on his neighborhood. And the friggin' traffic lights. WOW! No way I could ever live in the city. It is too damn HOT to be stopping every 300 feet for a 2 minute red light. Anyway, we ate............chilled.............then got ready to head back home. flyingwillie and Tbone left a few minutes before Renea and I left. Renea and I came home via GA 20/AL 9 to AL 35, had supper in Scottsboro, picked up US 72 and backroads to our house. The last 30 minutes or so were really nice, but I'll tell you this.................we're not gonna ride in hot weather like this again. WHEW! Glad that's over. It was great to meet some more CVO folks and see my little Brother, but WOW..............IT'S HOT!!!!!!
