Quick backroad blast, 1/29
« on: January 30, 2017, 09:09:53 AM »
Knocked out about 100 miles this afternoon, mostly SE of Rock, KS. Found an old church that I know David Woodward and Randy Megli will recognize- as well as some fun oil well roads. I'm trying to be better about snagging pics on rides.. so here's a few I grabbed.

Hopefully this post shows up ok and the pics look good.

Should we have a ride reports section?

Great shots and I'll bet it was a beautiful ride yesterday!! I do remember that church but I can't for the life of me remember the name of that little town? Just west of Winfield lake! Thanks for sharing your ride and pictures with us! I agree we need to put up a ride reports section....

Excellent report.  The pix turned out great.  Did you have any problems doing this?

Nah everything was easy to post up, no problems at all.

While out on the ride I managed to get on some oil field roads that definitely weren't on my iphones GPS.  I'm sure my Garmin would've had them, but I didn't bring it along this time. Wish I hadn't started running out of daylight!

Like the pictures (and the bike)! 

The 29th turned out nice to get out.
