More random bikes

After which we retired to Marko's house, where Caveman dug into somin

And then some reason...

So after a rainy Sunday... we head back towards Michigan. This time via PA Turnpike I-76, which I must say is way better than the 99/322 via State College/coming from the north.

Our ride home was AMAZING. A picture perfect 75*-80*, blue skies, nice twisted mountain highway... and the 3 long awesome tunnels

Light at the end of the tunnel

Still great views before the darkness came...

Love those windmills

Love these little towns on the mountain sides

We made it home from this perfect evening/night ride. The ride home made the heat of Fri/Sat all worth it.

Well, it could have possibly been due to the fact that it was so blazin hot on friday and we were just road weary. The ride from State College was alright had we not had the wymins on the back and we could have really gotten into the lean and roll of the curves.

I think that I perhaps didn't like the ride into SC from the PA/OH border. The turnpike was just really fast movin, nice cool weather and Gas and I loved the tunnels on those HD's. Really makes them sound F'in fierce.

We killed the half gallon of Jack though.

Sorry to have drained the bottle of Jack. It was very good.

Damn, holding the breath through those tunnels may not be too healthy... They were quite long. What I liked the most about them was the sound of two balls out Ultra's blaring through there at 90 MPH. Was almost deafening at some points.
