2014 S10 in Blue
Did Memphis to NYC on Thursday or as my SO called it, The Elvis to Sinatra Run. 1100 miles, too bad I didn't know the Iron Butt rules before I left.

Just got back from a ride to Las Vegas. Did some touring around the area, including the "Valley of Fire" and every dirt/rock road in it I could find. Thursday was great weather, Friday was high winds and blowing dirt/sand and I cut it short for the day. What a beautiful area. On the way home ran into some high winds (35 -40 mph) on the freeway, but this bike did really well in it. I was more worried than the bike seemed to be even at 80 mph.
Looks like new tires (going with Mitas E-07 this time), and an oil change is due this week.

Went for a snow survey, out over 88 and Carson Pass and back on 50 and Echo Summit by way of Luther Pass. Not nearly as much snow as they keep going on about, more dirt showing than snow. Sure, lets keep draining the lakes so they can catch 'all that runoff'. ::010::

End of last week, a ride to Loomies Cafe in Hampshire.

the blue one was my 2012 Gen 1 taken 2 years ago...
the silver one is my 2015 Gen 2 ES taken yesterday, opening day for Alberta 66
AND it appears Powerface Trail is open, but that's another day's adventure...

Last Sunday I rode to Virginia International Raceway VIR and enjoyed watching the MotoAmerica motorcycle road races. Fantastic!

I also commuted yesterday, but it was the first time I was back on the bike in over a month (too much travel!) I'm riding today and tomorrow as well, and then Friday, but that's to start my move to Las Vegas.
Rode from Maryland to Pensacola for my niece's wedding and took a few days to explore backroads in TN and NC.
Good times!

To use a family event as an excuse for a ride... ::008:: ::008::Checkswrecks said:
Actually over last weekend. About 900 miles total.
Rode up to the Fresno area, and spent two days in the Sierra National Forest. Took all the paved roads, and dirt roads I could. Great curvy roads, logging roads, very little people around.
One of the logging roads I took had a gate across it about three miles in. There was a Forest service truck parked next to it, and I talked to the guy in it. He was running a dozer in the area and the road was closed so he could work on some fire breaks in the area. I asked if there was another way out without going the route I just took. He point to a "road" and said that would work. I took it, and wow. The dozer had been brought into the area via that road and all the hills that I had to go down were loose dirt from the tracks of the dozer and rutted from rains. All I can say is the tires and bike made me look good. It was a road that I am not sure the Tenere should have been on without knobbies. Several times the bike going down the hills, due to the loose dirt, and steepness of the hill (I figured 45*, but in reality probably only 7-10*), the tires would lock up every so often as I was trying to keep the speed down using the combination of rear brake and engine braking. Have to say the Mitas E07 tires, even with the treads clogging/cleaning dirt, and the ABS when the tires did lock up really is what saved me from falling. Never fell ::012::, and even with ruts and loose dirt, the bike went where I pointed it.
What a great bike, and fun trip.
