Home and Back at Work.

Postby LoVel » Tue Jun 10, 2014 1:08 pm

Work is really rough after beeing gone for so long but I am starting to get back into the swing. 12 hour days on the bike get long towards the end but work is worse. Just want to get back on the bike and ride again.

Sprockets and chain have been ordered for Robin's bike. Will be getting a new rear tire, brake shoes and oil changes all around also.

Math never was my stong suit. Total miles was about 3150 for our bash trip. I think I made an earlier estimate with a couple of hundred more miles added. 1726 on the way up and 1400 plus on the way home.

Had a great time this year. Already looking forward to seeing everyone again next year.

Yeah work DOES suck. I was standing in front of the computer at work today when I got an urge to look for a place to stay in VT for a few days. Found a condo near Killington cheap so I will decide on a weekend to head up.

+1 on work suckin'.

came back from Charleston, SC and Chincoteague, VA to a ton of work and a change in management in our department.,

I'm wishing I was back in Chincoteague or on my way to Barber.

Paul,

I'd be interested in knowing the route you took to get back home.

I know we stayed in Gettysburg the first night, a blue ridge parkway campground the second night and Cleveland TN the third night. I will need to get out a map and consult with Robin for more info. I do remember going through the Catskills and doing several miles along the Susquehanna River also.

I will add to this as soon as we figure it out.

Just remembered the Cherahola Skyway was in there also. Beware the grass cutters. Dumped grass all over the road.
