New Tires

I finally got new tires on the motorcycle.  The shop I went to was comprised of some of the nicest people I have ever encountered at motorcycle places.  One of the guys asked where I lived and told me a good route to take home - 130 miles worth.  So here's my route to the shop (14 mi):

And my route home today (124 mi):

I'm going to see if I can't do something similar tomorrow!

Break Time

I've sworn off the web crawler project for the week. I'm in North Georgia until Friday; I intend to ride my motorcycle and relax at the Bed & Breakfast I have enjoyed so far. I didn't bring any books related to the project (the bike was packed already) and I have to get some schoolwork done.

I might be hanging out listening to the rain tonight, but that's fine with me. As long as I can get home Friday, there won't be a problem. I want to ride some in the mountains while I'm here, but a friend is taking me to Athens tonight if the weather permits and it will probably rain Thursday. Friday I'll go home, likely without really hitting the curves up here. It was a nice ride up Monday; really good practice for the trip in September.

Back to "work" now.
