Another December Blast
« on: December 04, 2016, 03:28:48 PM »
I watched Nick's video (Nuovo Falcone) and got the itch to head out on the Ambo today. Sunny and 45F, what's not to love? Hit my favorite roads through the Pine Barrens, and a few new ones. Couple hours and 75 miles later the Ambo was back in the garage with a full gas tank and healthy dose of Seafoam. Hard to tell when it will be nice enough (no salt) to hit the road again. Great combustion weather, the old air cooled Guzzis love it!

This house is right across a small street from the Mullica River (no Beavers), in serious disrepair, looks haunted, and is for SALE.  Anyone good with a hammer?

Beautiful bike!!
And the house looks like it has a lot of potential (for a lot of money! ;-)

I had the urge to ride today, but lacked the energy to gear up and go. Last Sunday I rode "Barney" 160 miles, though.

Old lime kilns, Harpers Ferry Rd., near Sharpsburg, MD.



One of the many stone bridges in Washington Co.



One of my favorites roads in central PA - Rock Hill Church Rd. near Clearville, PA. Unfortunately it was recently tar and chipped, so there was lots of loose gravel still.




I did ride this little cutie about two miles around the neighborhood yesterday:

Charlie, thanks to you the Ambo is still running like a top.  I did cheat and plug in my jacket liner today.  The alternator conversion is more than up to it!

That's something I need to buy along with glove liners.

"Shhhhh...hear that?  It's the smallest violin on the planet playing just for you!"   :grin: :grin: :grin:  Sorry couldn't resist.  Good to see that you're able to ride in December.   :thumb:  It's technically still Fall.
