2013 and we are finally riding.

When spring finally arrived we started riding.

We hosted the first Black  Hills  rally. I thought it was a great success. We had people here from 17 states  and Canada.

We did two trips to.Abrdeen on the bikes, but they werd uneventful. We were just visiting family. On the first trip,I did notice I had cords showing on my rear tire, so I had to scramble for a replacement. Melanie needed a new chain at the start of that trip so I guess it wasn't totally uneventful.

On July 31st, I had to go to Yankton to my past supervisors funeral. This one is hard to do. Shortly before my surgery we drove to Wisconsin for a training seminar. We had fun, and I would have done it again with him any time. He died of cancer. He never failed to ask if I was "...getting any miles on my scoot."

I will definitely miss that man, and my life is better for really getting to know him before he found out about the cancer.
Here  are some pictures of the ride.
