Following tradition at Indy – but how many dogs have been at the starting line? PS under the hat in his bag!  But don’t tell!

In the winners seat for an interview.

Too hot to ride today – 93 deg,  Went to the largest Camping World in America, closed for renovations – who knew – they had tents set up instead for shopping so not doing that!

Found a Dunkin Donuts also – road closed to traffic!

What are the odds – met a man at Camping World who was riding his motorcycle in Rhode Island last Saturday, He said he had reached his goal of riding in all 50 states – ironically was at the Jefferson Diner on Jefferson Blvd which is a mile from home.

Day 3 ~ 08/08/16

But we kept stopping so went across route 31 instead

BUT before we could begin Alan wanted to check tire pressure – and once again the valve would not seal – sooooo here is Alan using his compressor to fix a flat!

 

No he is not praying - but IS swearing!

He just HAD to check the tire pressure!

No rug beaters but serving warm brownies and fresh fruit!

Friendliest antique shop we’ve ever been in – seems to be a local gathering spot for the locals.

Glad we went across route 31 – nice easy riding – town of Bedford looked like an old western town, it was Sunday so nothing opened.  There are numerous historical buildings.  Next time will stay 2 days, There is a route where you can see 16 covered bridges.

 

Day 1~ 08/06/16 ~ We are off!

Saturday morning, approximately 7:30AM! We parked at 6:30AM and were chauffeured over to IHOP for a good breakfast before setting off for the day.

We always begin with Ann & Hope parking lot because….Dunkin Donuts across the street! Also: we can’t fit in the Dunkin parking lot!

 

Can you see me now?
