Spring 1997 - Cincinnati to Yukon
Journals - 18 April 1997
Day 18 - Cincinnati, OH
18 April 1997 (sunny and cool and windy; mileage = 17) -- X - Got up after
everyone had gone to school/work. Packed up everything and rode out by
noon. I got up to 41 mph going down Indian Hill Road. Rode up Madison to
Oakley Cycles. Talked to Mike there and bought a kickstand, new tube, and
some cheap brake pads. We were then in a hurry to get to the Blue Gibbon
and meet A's family for lunch. That went OK, I suppose. Then we went to the
Harley dealer to buy a bungee net. Next was the 2nd half of Dennis' commute
home. April did very well to ride her loaded bike up Old Winton Hill
without stopping. We dropped off our film. We then went to Dennis' and
Nancy's house. We weighed the bikes there: X -- 128 lbs. A -- 88 lbs. We
then put the new kickstand on A's bike. They seem to be quite nice. We
loafed around outside on the P-loungers until Dennis came home. Then we
checked wheel circumference and mounted and tested a set of low-rider
racks. Very promising. We then went to Bacall's for dinner which took a
long time and went and got pix. Showed off our pix. Back to D&N's house for
shower and bed.
