Triple play? Whatever you want to call it, out for 3 rides today. First, I took Joan's Xmax for a short(ish) ride. Out to Hwy 85, onto I-10, then some local cruising. That Xmax impresses me every time I ride it...
It is so competent at everything it does. Feels really "flickable" compared to my CTX. And gets 80+ miles per gallon doing it all. Which is a good thing, since gas here in Buckeye is $4.59.
Joan hasn't been riding, so it is good to "exercise" the bike, keep oil flowing through it, and keep the battery topped up.
After putting the Xmax away, I got out on my CTX...
With no destination, but a plan to meet my Honey for lunch at 2:00 at the Garden of Olives. I like their food, and they have $6.00 "entrees to go" after you have bought your meals. We picked up a couple for Steph and Dan, and a couple for us to have while we're on the road heading for home.
I rode to the Cycle Gear where we have bought stuff in the past; didn't really need anything, just wanted to look around. Nope - it is an empty building. Another one bites the dust.
Ride #3 came after lunch; Joan took the extra entrees, so she could put two of them in Steph and Dan's fridge. I rode north. Then west. Then south. Then west some more. It got to 79ª today and was just a nice day to be out on a bike. This will probably be my last ride before we head out Saturday.
Getting close.
