Damn it I forgot the tracker again

I am now completely relocated from Cincinnati back to Texas. I am so very happy to be out of the horribly cold weather up there and back to the lovely Texas winter.

Today is about 65°F and barely a cloud in the sky. So naturally I had to take a motorcycle ride. I picked up I made it down to Lone Star Harley-Davidson and Tyler and then run around for another just shy of 200 miles to collect some America's Ultimate Long Distance Rider points.

I'm trying to sell an extra windshield, but the buyer didn't show at Lone Star, which is why I had a big box strapped to the bike all day 🤣.

It was a really great day, not a lot of traffic, warm and clear, very little wind. Just great therapy...until I got back to my rv-barn-dominium. There's so many gophers here and they leave soft spots in my gravel/hay/dirt drive. So I got to use my jack again to pick up the bike after I fell over. 🤦

I decided it was a good opportunity to show y'all how I pick up a 1,000 lb bike without lifting it, so if you want to see the video, go to my YouTube channel (visit the POPL link below). It's too long to post here. Spoiler alert: I have a motorcycle jack 💪.

I'm getting pretty good at using the jack, which I think is a good thing except that I'm using it way too often, which is why I'm getting good at it 🤣. It's a vicious cycle.

I don't know what it is about this Road Glide Limited, but it is so top heavy that any little turn of the handlebars at slow speed just tips you right over. It's happened enough now that when I feel it going, I just keep my hands on the grips, pull my knees into the tank, and let it do what it wants, then brush myself off afterwards.

If motorcycling was easy, everybody would do it, right? 🤣

Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING!
