We set out late, 10AM, on Wednesday and pointed the bikes North. I rode with my friend on his Bandit 600. We spent most of the time on the back routes, and avoided the major highways.

Two happy campers with nothing but riding scheduled for the next 3-4 days.

First pit stop, I think I see a drop of oil under my bike:

Yup,

We continued on to Manchester, and found ourselves at Mom's. They said they had the part in the attic! But, it was the crankcase cover...When in doubt JB Weld!

This got me through the rest of the ride . I bled a little oil, but it was never low. Topped it off after 1000 miles.
The purple clouds over NH Speedway in Loudon were almost welcome, to break the heat.

Then they delivered. It was cats and dogs, we pushed forward and made it to Campton. Our base for the next couple of days.
The cure for wet riding gear.

More to come...Mostly pictures of bikes and food.
