Mississippi Rider

  • March 1, 2013 5:13 AM PST
    Greetings!

    I am a fairly new rider (June 2012) living in Mississippi.  I've put about 3,300 miles on my new off the floor 2009 Vulcan 1700 classic since I bought it in Novermber, 2012.  Yes, it has been chilly riding to work at 6:30 am, but I just can't stop for only a little cold weather (rode as low as 31 degrees).

    I am looking forward to seeing more and more riders on the roads as spring gets here.  Looking forward to my first group ride...

    In Peace and Spirit Be!

    Glad to hear you are riding and enjoying it. Yes, it will even be more enjoyable when you get to ride in some nice spring and summer weather.

    Enjoy the site!!!

    About 20 to 30 miles.  :) 

    I ride the Trace a lot.

    Sometimes I take hwy 25 to Goshen Springs and get on the Trace at the hwy 43 on-ramp and go North to Cypress Swamp and Riverbend.
    Other times I take I-20 West to the Trace and go South to Dean's Stand or Rocky Springs.
    Or maybe take the spillway and get on the Trace at the Old Canton Road entrance and go North to the Resivore and on up or South to I-20 and on down.
