Closed Roads... Flooded Roads... Twisty Roads....

Well, who needs an excuse to go riding? Certainly not me... but... I needed to run the tank low on gas. My friend Wild Bill ;-) is gonna put my new fog lamps on for me tomorrow. I am a little intimidated by electricity and he's gonna show me the proper way to do splices (I thought twisting wires together and taping them was the proper way....)

So I headed out... it's beautiful out... 85 degrees. Decide to go somewhere I've never been before.... when I see a sign! Be damned if that's going to stop me... all it did was make me want to know why the road was closed. I had an idea why but I wanted to confirm my suspicions. Y'all might has seen on the news about all the rain we got here in Missouri and the flooding that has happend as a result.

Well, I couldn't see the road so I wasn't exactly positive how deep it was. I prolly woulda been ok but I wasn't taking any chances so I turned around and went back. Decided it would be more fun to go moo at some cows and ride a real twisty road.


Now this is the kind of sign that I like to see while riding!!!



Saw a bunch that look like thiss too but I was having too much fun to stop and take a picture!!!
