I let the new Ranger rest this morning and went for a ride on my FLHX (Street Glide). Put about 100+ enjoyable miles on it with my 2 riding friends joining me! Ended up at a Firehouse Subs restaurant for a great tasting sandwich! Now to put the recliner in 10 gear and check out the inside of my eyelids...LOL!!!

No, however that would be a great ride as well. This was where we pulled off of US70 between Sparta & Crossville to take a break at a scenic lookout location. One of my friends has a new Fatboy. Looks great but not the most comfy seat on it. I asked him how his fanny felt....he said fine because he could not feel it :crying:

I rode my Yamaha FZ6 to work today. It finally stopped raining here in Northern Oregon. Until tomorrow. :frown: Rain is due tomorrow.
Glad you had a chance to ride today, Mark. Looks like the Ranger is going to get driven tomorrow, which is a good thing, except in the rain!

Never heard anybody say “Northern Oregon,” then again.. Portland has gone to shit, so I get it. ?
Ha! That’s the litmus test we use to decipher if someone is actually from Tn or has moved here. If they say “central Tn” then ya know..they ain’t from Tn lol. It’s West Tn, Middle Tn, or East Tn.

That is a nice stretch of road to ride on for sure. We call that area the plateau for us folk that live in the valley. Cookeville is where us east TN natives start referring to it as middle tn. ?

We had a lot purchased in Crossville at Lake Tansi and were going to build a home there. Plans changed though and we ended up in Smithville. The thing I really liked about Crossville is on the plateau it is always a bit cooler than the surrounding areas! In the summer, that is a plus!!!

I asked a dude I went to tech school with where he was from.

He looked at me, dead ass serious, and said "East Carolina."

They must've forgot about that state when my public school taught geography.
