Nice ride!
Mood:  a-ok
Well I took a great trip from Florida to Nevada on my motorcycle last week. The journey totaled 2375 miles and covered Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arizona, New Mexico and Nevada. I crossd the Nevada state line at the new Boulder Dam bridge peeling with sunburn, feet swollen and lips bleeding with windburn. It was great! Typically I covered between 500 and 600 miles each day taking breaks about every hour as is my custom. Getting soaked in the Florda Panhandle on the first day did not bode well, but I soon was air dried as I cranked up the throttle in Alabama. By the time I reached Mississippi I was warm and dry. The following day I crossed from Louisiana into Texas under threatening skies, but experianced only a few drops of rain eventually passing San Antonio under a hot afternoon sun. From that point on it was hot and dry. Great ride!
