Michel Marcia MotorcycleTrips |
Follow us on Facebook, we try to post as we do our trips and rides. |
St. John's River Grille 1/28/2017 |
Alright this is where our ride started off, and Marcia is with us today A little cooler today |
I got a new camera and I'm already having issues, I'm still learning how to interface my phone with my new camera, |
Our buddy Bill from Bainbridge Georgia was down working at a job site he decided to come on over and see us off, I wish he could have made the ride with us today..... next time Bill |
It was nice and cool today I don't think it ever broke 55 degrees started getting a little bit colder later on in the day heading home as the sun was going down |
A lot of you probably know this site right here we're on Highway 40 getting ready to cross the Ocklawaha River I believe it is |
Still on the bridge just getting the shot at what's behind me |
This is a familiar stop Highway 40 and 314 a this is where we met up with Tony and Vicki took a little break everybody was saying hi then it was that time again back on the road heading on 314a |
Remember I am titling these on Facebook as we go....Looks like I'm going to put more pictures tonight a little bit of a technical user problem problems |
Sure was great seeing Tony and Vicky again it's been awhile.... about time |
Now lot of you know this road, we took 314a and then we got off of it on the left side there's another neat little road that we took that runs back into 314a a few miles down the road, not very far from where we take 182nd Avenue |
Me and Marcia have been here years ago, Different ownership, they did a nice job here you have your own motorcycle parking and then you got the dock's right here and it's also an rv park, we didn't really check that out too much. |
This is also where we met our other Bill from Saint Cloud Florida great seeing you again... |
Another view of the docks here |
Then there's our buddy Tony with Marcia, you almost have to dedicate a camera to Tony, he's always going to do something as you will see in the next couple of pictures |
Here we go..... Tony is at it |
Tony is alright he's always given us a laugh |
Bill and aka the junior Ranger discussing how to peel shrimp |
Ed still at it |
I think that Vickie is trying to ignore me |
Well in this picture we have just finished eating that's Bill on the left... couple pictures of the bikes before we take off |
I remember years ago before we got into bikes we used to be boating down this River all the time |
Yes sir we broke the drone out today, I still get that feeling especial when I go over water, that might be the last time I will see the drone |
But I gotta say it really takes some nice pictures |
Here you can see our bikes |
And here's a picture of the group before we took off, I hope to make a little video the next day or two of this trip trying to figure out how to make them quicker we'll see |
The route we took home, we tried to keep that interesting to, we avoided DeLand and made it all the way to Highway 40 |
Like I said, taking some of these back roads they're always well welcomed! |
You know the radios cranked up.... just enjoying this. |
of course most of us have cb radios, so we always have some kind of conversation going on it can be very interesting... |
After these back roads it was pretty much just a straight run heading west on Highway 40 going through the forest |
Once again we come back to the Kangaroo Station on 40 and 314a where we met up with Tony and Vicki, now everybody tops off with fuel and we're all saying our goodbyes...... time to point them home |
You don't see these VW buses very much seen two of them at this gas station |
Pretty much brings us to the end of our trip what a great day, everybody was dressed warm, it's just great get out and riding again, you know what, tomorrow we're going to do it again see you on the Road |
Well I hope you enjoyed our web page to this trip. Those that usually follow on our Facebook page we put this up as we go, to make it here on the website it seems to take a lot longer but I'm sure it reaches a lot more people and with the map that we made if you open it on your phone it will show you the map and you can zoom into any road street and see the street view, and it shows where you're at almost as good as a GPS |
