This morning would be my final day at my sisters. I loaded up the bike and was on the road shortly after 8:00 am. I was not heading home just yet. I headed east to the Coffee Corner to meet the fine riders of STN. It was a little less than 100 miles.
For my review of the Coffee Corner, I have to say that I had some good coffee. Nothing great. Nothing bad. Not sure if I would go back. To be honest, I am not a big coffee drinker so it would really have to wow me to get Two Spoons. I will give it One Spoon for now.
Here are a few pics....






Right before my trip to Deals Gap, in early June, I have been experiencing chain issues. Adjustments have been made every 500 miles. That is not normal. I am suppose to get 20,000 miles from the chain and I am 13k right now. The above picture is fellow STN rider, Chuck, giving me assistance. I also found out that I have all the proper tools to adjust my chain right under the seat of my bike. Doh! It looks like a new chain and sprockets will be replaced before the end of the season.
After coffee, just about everyone took off for their own plans. That left Chris aka Breadman and myself. We went east in search of twisties but for the most part, came up empty. Any decent curves that we did find, had loose gravel across it. Both of us experienced loss of traction at different times. We finally put up the white flag and headed for home.
I made it home around 2:30 and 750 miles for the trip. Another great DRY trip marked in the books. Thanks to Shane and Carrie for hosting this weekend. As well as Chuck for giving me assistance (and tools) for the maintenance. I can't wait till the next jaunt.
