The joys of living in south Louisiana. Not a month goes by that you don't have to cut the grass at least once.
 
okay so I'm at the end of okay so I'm at the end of I-49 where it becomes 71 North .

Gonna stop for fuel within 40 miles. Got 100 on this tank already.
 
Fuel up in ashdown. Bikes everywhere. They're in tshirts. I got 4 layers on.

I'm gonna enjoy this day extra hard for tonight's suckfreezefest
 
When you get up Kansas City way beware of the orange cones and POTHOLES. We grow them big and deep up here. The good thing weed will be no problem in Kansas City city limits but not anywhere else. If you need any parts ect. Engle motors is full service Triumph dealership. Good luck and today the 29th it's 60° today and will be around 50° tonight. Unusually warm.
 
Made it to waldron.
Got 40mpg cuz of a lot of slow little towns.
I did very much enjoy the ride.
Going through Arkansas is like going through the Foothills in Georgia.
Still warm enough out that long johns warm ups and blue jeans or good enough still.
405 miles into the trip

Once you do a long trip you will be hooked and it gets easier
 
Almost in Fayetteville Arkansas was getting cold cuz the sun went down and hungry so pull over for gas and Sonic and put some more clothes on.

it's been 10 hours and 500 miles so it looks like I'll be on schedule for about a 30-hour ride.

we'll see how much the cold slows me down

that's why my family and friends don't understand that even though I will suffer some it'll be okay.

I think my hands will get real cold
