    Letting your grass grow tall promotes good root growth for the fall/winter.

    ghostrider, you must have road out Cincinnati/Brookville road - out by the old Fernald plant. That is one of my favorite rides, Kemper to Old Colerain and over to Ross on my way to Brookville

    Riding i75 in the morning sucks! Where are you headed to and where are you coming from?

    Colerain? Sweet, I am over in Greenhills. Do you ever go to the Thursday night bike night over at Quaker Steak & Lube?

    If I were headed to Ft Mitchell I would leave 20 minutes early and take 275 around and avoid that downtown mess

    Happy belated birthday, sounds like you had a great ride. Don't worry about riding near old nuclear power plants. Homer Simpson wrks at oe and look at him! Ummm. Maybe not a good example.

    It was nice that LEO recognized you for your speed contribution without feeling obligated to give you a formal performance award.

    Have fun and stay safe.

    UPDATE---
    Wanted to write this as soon as it happened... I rode it into work this morning and man oh man... That was a blast.. I should have done it sooner.. The traffic doesnt get bad until 7 am so 6:50 AM no real traffice and open lanes.. hahahaha I think I will need weights.. at 65 the front end get squirrely... But a good commute...


    Now I just gotta find warmer pants that go with a suit and tie... yes a suit and tie on a bike... with a backpack... oh well time for the meeting.. How do you get the stupid grin off my face LOL...

    Awesome! I know the feeling. I only learned to ride after I got my old bike. Riding to work the first time was super cool! Now, when my wife asks when I'll be home, I add an extra 20-30 minutes to my ETA so I can take the "long" way home. LOL
