First Dude w/Free Food!

ABM...

First to arrive at the hundred dollar flophouse. Actually, it ain't too bad..studio w/frig/mw/cook counter & ice cold a/c. Good thing. The temp billboard across 441 says 92 friggin' degrees. A lot warmer here than where we came from. This will likely be the only hotel ABM sleeps in until next April. No bed bugs yet.. but the week is young..

In The Zone:

Forty Miles of National Forest, not one discarded bottle or wrapper. Florida's rt 19 runs through a rare stretch of undeveloped hilly palmetto & pine tree scrub brush. Wind blowing off huge Lake George, a part ot the St Johns River, cooled the two V-twins. Here & there, signs beckon you to drop in & buy fresh catfish, blue crabs, garden veggies, & florida citrus. After leaving the Ocala National Park, the scenery morphs into oak & orange groves, then you enter Lake County, & humanity. Man, that forty miles of no cages, no billboards, no trash on a smooth road was really sweet for a city boy like me. The better half, also zonal...it don't get no better.

Free Food?

Bikers can eat, yes? If carb consumption is your specialty, you can win a thousand bucks from Budweiser, the easy way! It's them round things with a hole.

How? Dude, I got to have a hook, ya know?

Next time..
