For sure! Thanks for sharing them. The blue sky is amazing.
I love the riding shots. I made a tether for an old point and shoot camera I have but I only used it for one trip last year. I used a retractable security lanyard from an old GoPro point of sale display. I need to give it another try.
How quickly is your camera ready to shoot when you power it up?
It only takes a couple of seconds. The thing that normally takes the longest is grabbing the camera, getting the right grip on it and finding the power button. Sometimes I can do that really quickly and sometimes I'm fiddling around for too long and miss the shot.
Makes sense. Do you use it left or right handed?
Left hand. The right hand stays on the throttle.
The local Cycle Gear had a Bike night yesterday so I went. I need a new rear tire for my Versys so I checked out the tires. They had a special I am considering.
I have Michelins on it now but one road 6 rear tire is around $300! I'll have to do some research the Pirelli's as I know nothing about them.
Time to check out the bikes. I thought this 2 stroke was cool!
Note the side stand on the bike. When he left he put the sidestand in a backpack.
Another angle.
There were a fair number of bikes there.
I spent much of the night talking to a couple of my friends.
The VFR in the pic belongs to a friend. Its for sale if anyone is interested.

I was out riding around the Huntsville area today trying to get my new scooters mileage up around 600 so I can do the first oil change. It really felt like spring with a high around 80 degrees and things starting to bloom everywhere.

A couple more pics along the river with the barge in the background. All three shots were taken from different places.
.
Then I was off for Green Mountain.
It's a steep road up the mtn.
There are some pretty nice houses on the mountain.

This is one of my favorite picture spots. It is on the other side of the mountain from Huntsville.
This place was just down the road. Interesting front yard.
I went into Owens Cross roads for lunch and then headed for Keel Mountain.
Looking down towards Gurley.

Some nice spring colors.
I pulled a U turn to get parked for these next 2 pics.
This next pic shows how steep this is. It's more fun riding up than down.
Looking over Huntsville.
That view is almost as awesome as that road!
I planned on going for a ride yesterday morning but it was cloudy, gloomy and cold so I couldn't get motivated. The sun finally broke through the clouds in the afternoon so I headed out around 2. I wanted to see how my Vespa would handle the curves on Crow Mountain and take some pics.
I stopped and took pics on a couple of bridges in Paint Rock Valley.
.
I rode down Crow mountain on CR33. This was part of the Scooter Cannonball route last year.

Then it was time to ride CR39 up Crow Mountain. This short stretch of road makes the dragon seem like a highway in Kansas. I stopped at one of the easier curves to take some pics.
I picked this curve because there is a good place to park. That's not the case with many of the curves.
Looking the other way.
Once the leaves come in most of the view will go away.

Then as I was headed for home I thought that I should detour to Madison County Lake. I hadn't been there for a while and it's a good place for pics. I saw something interesting on the way and U turned to get a pic.
And an interesting old truck.
