Countrytime (April 7-8)

Great Easter weekend at home, enjoyed some great time with the family, but also got in some serious rides. A little under 50 miles on Saturday (but just under) and skipped riding in Charlotte for some backroads riding. It is spring, and nothing like some country to check out such as this old building at left. In fact I have a lot of good photos from the rides at my photo site (there is a link to that on this page, near the top). Beautiful weather, and it included a ride to Goose Creek Airport where I spent some time via curvy and scenic Lawyers Road watching planes take off and land.   
One of my stops on Easter Sunday was at left, that being China Grove, NC. During this ride (which was a bit over 50 miles) I went to Concord, Kannapolis, Landis, and China Grove, NC. Being Easter the traffic was real light and things were pretty quiet in the downtowns as I rode though them (though some were quieter than others). Just a great ride which on top of the previous days ride made for a great weekend out on the bike. Weather has been nothing short of remarkable both temperature wise and rain wise (though to be honest we are around 3 inches below normal rain fall in NC, and could use a little...hopefully while I am in Richmond for the next few days). Got some great rides coming up soon-this is going to be a very exciting month to ride, and I am looking forward to it.
Got some great adventures coming up in the next few weeks, going to a very exciting place, and will also be visiting some places in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for visiting my page!
