Quick post and preview of upcoming attractions

Just a quick note to keep posting.  Had a good "mileage run" ride today to start testing and prepping for an IronButt ride later this year.  Was able to get a 50 mile up and back run on I-15 in just under 50 minutes, including some in-town riding.  So factoring in gas and food stops equating to the in-town legs, this is doable once I get in long-distance riding shape.  I'm guessing core strength, optimally fitted gear, and a few chiropractor visits are in order.

Ok, coming attractions:

Feature articles on riders-both some guys and some female riders pushing the boundaries back.  This is both to give props to these ladies-one a racer, one a group organizer, and one a MSF instructor (hopefully) as they are using their skills and personalities to make riding better for all of us.

Also, I'm going to migrate a devotional I used to send out via e-mail to it's own blog.  Some of you may have received it in the past.  It's called "Thursday Thoughts" and today may be the first post.  If not I'll debut it next Thursday.

Some new maintenance videos on YouTube like this old one:
 

 
 
The Connie needs a new front tire from BikeBandit pretty soon, and the Sportster needs some motorcycle maintenance and repair.
 
OK, got to go, so ride safe, look out for and love one another.
