Last year we rode the motorcycles out to Gettysburg, PA. This year we rode to Yellowstone National Park. I am pretty proud that I was able to put 6,000 miles on my bike this year. Would be more if the weather would cooperate but it is that awful time of year where they need to be put away for the winter.
Location: Finally made it to Florida and lovin' every minute!
