i had to go to indiana to get the papers straight on the midwest motobrick... not having much time i had to do it in a day... so at 4am im rolling...

thought to take a mileage photo cause i would never remember where i started... this was at the 1st fuel stop...

sunrise over iowa corn... no deer spotted in the dark or at dawn... lucky me... its iowa you know...

its a smooth roller... runs straight and true with no hands at any speed...

i slabbed 1/2 way and rode the rual back roads of illinois the rest of the way... unfortunately there was lotts o this on the superslabb and the rural back roads... many were one lane with flaggers as barbacks obmamma stimulated the black top industry... doesnt he know if it were white top it would reduce global warming... but that would be racist...

back home again in indiana...

iowa 80 truck stop... the worlds largest... look... barber shop... im thinking... riiiiiiiiight...

but i opted for the hand pounded breaded and deep fried pig butt... it was yummy... 3 things i miss about the midwest... 1 white castle double chee... 2 tenderloin sandwiches... 3 chicago beef...

sunset over iowa...

as much as i hate the slabb... it was the only way today... in total about 800 miles... about 400 of it slabb...

800 miles of superslab, that's like what? 50 miles of riding?

never mind, it's flatland. probably had a whole 3 turns in all that riding. at least you didn't wear out the left side of your tire.

just sayin.... Razz

i stumbled across 2 corners where i could actually lean more than 10 degrees off vertical... it was a hoot... both of them...
