Boyd, J.T., Lloyd and I bundled up against to 40-something temperatures and set out for our ride to nowhere in particular. We covered a lot of ground, including, Hopewell, Keysville, Jameson Rd., Nichols Rd., Agricola Mine Rd., over to Homeland, Lake Hendry Rd., Lake Buffum, up the newly resurfaced Crews Rd. to West Lake Wales and West Scenic Park, Winter Haven, then back to Lakeland for a stop at Fun Bike Center. While J.T. looked unsuccessfully for a new helmet, Boyd & Lloyd drooled over a couple of new bikes.
Unhappily, both resisted the temptation.Leaving Fun Bike, Lloyd headed home while the rest of us stopped for a light lunch and conversation. Shortly thereafter, J.T. also headed home while Boyd and I continued our two-wheeled explorations. We eventually made our way over to run Old Dade City Road then explored a couple of new pieces of blacktop in that area - Sherrouse, Keen and Lakeland Acres Roads. All three proved interesting.
As 3:30 p.m. approached we headed for home and the end of another great ride.
Remember - Not all who wander are lost. Ride with Pride.

Gunny, Nice job on the ride report! Reading about you guys' travels only made me miss riding that much more. Boyd, you look good on that Concours...maybe it's time to quit resisting that urge you have and add a sport-tourer to your personal inventory. As long as that bike has been sitting on the showroom floor, they just might be ready to make a deal!
