Where did you ride today?

[Sunday Rider]

OK.
Here is just a sampling of what filled in the storage box under the AK seat. Dutch Letters, Apple Rings, and a cinnamon coffee cake. (they don't have pie).

Now I wish I didn't ask, I am drooling looking at them and dinner is a long time away.

the Joe Louis Greenway is under construction north of Joy road and the gate is closed but that didn't stop me from finding a way in

Sure, it's easy when you can just pick up your bike and toss it over the gate.

After a difficult winter, finally getting some seat time on the Wee Strom.






Haven't tried the ST yet, part of the difficult winter was a knee replacement in January....so testing the waters with a lighter bike.
But soon......

Little darlin', it's been a long, cold, lonely winter
Little darlin', it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's alright

Went to my appointment with the DOT to register all my vehicles and pick up the custom plate for the trailer. The forecast called for no rain until after 2 pm. My appointment was 10:45 so I figured plenty of time to get there and back before getting wet. Yeah, right. 23 mile round trip straight there and back a not so straight route but I made it over 36 miles anyway. I left a little early so I could go the long way on the way there. Good thing I did. Appointments are strictly enforced time-wise so getting there early is no help. Getting there late cancels the time requiring setting up a new appointment for another time. I got there on time but the air felt just a bit damp as I walked into the courthouse. It took them 25 minutes to get the registration right. Had to fix the registration for the trailer plate since they printed the slip for THIS year rather than NEXT year as they should have. Got that all straightened out and found it was a light drizzle as I walked back to the bike. I had taken the trailer just to test out the balance of the wheel on it after putting 1 oz of balance beads in there. The trailer ran great as did the new tire on the bike. The drizzle turned to rain for most of the ride back. Fortunately I was headed out of it going home but I never outran it completely. Now I'm waiting for the license plate frame to arrive this afternoon. I ordered the same one that is on the AK. Pictures later.

I forgot to mention in my last post that when I picked up the new plate and registered my vehicles at the DOT I got the window with the cute girl. She saw the "number" on the plate and looked at the plate order and then asked "that's the model of the trailer?". I said it was and she smiled at that. Nice smile.

I did say pictures later. So...
Went to the local Walmart to pick up a grocery order. We usually have plenty to make a free curbside pickup order from there. Don't have to fight the crowd inside the store. I didn't leave early enough to go for much of a ride before though I did stop at one other store on the way to pickup a Mother's Day card. I also didn't want groceries to sit in the trailer while I tripped all over the county so this was a very short trip. Only 4.5 miles! Under all the sacks is a bag of dog food to be ballast in the bottom of the trailer. I could have fit twice this stuff as you can see. You can also see the new plate and plate frame on the trailer here.
