Oh the thrill of Americade!  I love to see the assortment of bikes, big and small, some with luggage carriers, side cars or even customized trailers, as they drive down the road.  Some travel in groups, some individually out to explore the beautiful countryside and open roads with this wonderful weather we have been having.  I envy those with motorcycle GPS the most as they can take off with confidence and explore the area, looking for historic sites or just simply enjoying the beauty of nature here beside beautiful Lake George and throughout the Adirondacks.  Well, today we had quite a sudden storm with the sky opening up and dropping quite a deluge on all.  I am certain that any cyclists caught on the road were especially glad their motorcycle GPS unit was waterproof at that time, or it would have been ruined for sure.  Of course, I expect most have motorcycle GPS mounts so they were able to grab their GPS units and run for shelter until the storm passed.  Now the rain has passed, the sun is peeking through, and I envy those cyclists again as they are back out on the open road enjoying the camaraderie of their friends and the beauty of nature all around them.  Such a wonderful family type adventure must certainly be remembered for years to come and anticipated with relish from spring to spring.
