A swell Sunday for a motorcycle ride

In pictures, of course.

Our first and most favorite bathroom break on any ride: the Frankfort Township Hall near Arkansas, Wis.

Stuff to do

North Shore Shindig: Sept. 8-11, Finland, MN. This is a great ride-your-own-thang ADV ride on the splendid shores of the Big Lake (That would be Lake Superior, for you down-range types.) Great group of peeps to spend a weekend with. We're in. Details and such, go here:

And it's time to get this on the calendar, the 67th annual Red Wing Ironworks Motorbike Club's Big Burn. This is our version of Octoberfest complete with a probably-illegal moto-centric sculpture burning in a rather average size backyard fire pit. No problem. As usual, entertainment provided by Rush River Beer, your crappy jokes and sad stories we've all heard before. Celebrate another grand year of motorsickle riding.
TIME: 6:30 p.m.
DATE: Oct. 1
PLACE: Bill's

This town's in tatters. I've been splattered. Sha-dooby.

Down in the valley. Trout Creek OHV riding area near Weaver, MN. Good-n-muddy. And the fast guys make riding in this stuff look easy.
