Scooter Ride

So Ernie calls Friday night, wants to know if I want to go for a "half day's ride."

(Now, Ernie is a member of a club whose name might be paraphrased as Iron Butts - guys who've ridden more than 1000 miles in a 24-hour period.)

So I say ok. We go east to Globe, South into New Mexico, back into Arizona, down to Douglas on the Mexico border, over to Bisbee, Tombstone, Sonoita, then home. Great roads, beautiful day, 572 miles in just under nine hours, including stops for go juice. Ok, we may have exceeded the posted speed guidelines on occasion.
