A Friday Ride


So I sneaked of work today (Friday) as its going to be wet Sunday when I usually get a day of for good behaviour :-))
Of course I shall have to get in some extra hours to compensate never get a completely free ride !!
Well I decided to go see whats happening at the regular gas stop and watering hole in Calabogie, last year they had a fire and it destroyed the property but I am pleased to say gas pumps were not affected and they have carried on with those while the rebuilding is taking shape.
As you can see its coming along nicely and now has a ramp (maybe for us to drive through on our bikes !) and will have all amenities as before.

The dirt roads in the area are not all drivable yet especially the shaded parts so doing a bit more Asphalt than I would like but hey I got out didn't I ?

A up date on a farkle namely the MSR shifter I added, it still did not completely work as I wanted, so to start the day I went to the local friendly welding shop and got the extra mod I wanted done so now its perfect, nice to get real service locally when you desperately need it and absolutely have to go for a ride to test the mod.

And on a footnote its only another week or so before I get to play on the water in Pamlico sound.

Catch up here soon then.
