Love it.......... put close to 1,000 miles on it in about two and half weeks. Smooth, hardly any vibration........ completely different from my old hard mount Harley.

These pictures were taken from the top of the overpass over I-10. This is the 1,000 acre solar farm that Florida Power is in the process of building between the I-10/129 exit and the I-10/137 exit in Florida.

More of the Shady Lanes............. Two Lane Blacktop #2

Little two lane blacktop that runs through Suwannee Valley area in Florida. Not on the maps and nobody ever heard of it unless they live around here.
Rode it early this morning. About 70 degrees and cloudy......... real nice weather for riding!

Gonna add a little something here. I was out riding today and stopped off in Greenville, Florida to see Ray Charles. He was sitting in the park playing his piano.

Instead of Shade can it be bushfire smoke. I live on the east coast of Australia and half the state is on fire at present. Rode with some friends today did not see the sun, blue sky or more than a kilometre in front of your from smoke all up and down NSW

Damn nice pics though.

It could be. About every 10 years the Okefenokee Swamp catches on fire when it gets real hot and dry. Smoke comes in so bad they have to close the highways down because visibility goes to about 10 feet when the wind is wrong.

Here is a few pictures of the last time it happened here. Can't see the sun at noon on a clear day. The swamp can burn for months and the smoke column is visible on the satellite weather maps going 400 miles across the state.

Love the old falling down barns and abandoned gas stations. This one is on Hwy 441 between Lake City, FL and Fargo, Ga.

Great photos! Back from our trip to Orlando unfortunately only travelled the highways. Next time I hope to do a lot more off the highway exploring.
