Ride Report.

Thursday night a good friend of mine called and asked if the wife and I

would like to come out to Possum Kingdom Lake. His parents have a lake
house right on the water and they were kind enough to let my friend and

his wife have the run of the place all week. They have a nice Pro Craft

bass and ski boat and three jet ski's. I asked the wife and she was all

for going.

Friday morning we loaded up the motorcycle and headed to the lake. We
went thru Weatherford and took a left on the other side of town and
headed towards Peaster. The route we took bypassed going thru Mineral
Wells. We headed over to Graford and on to the lakehouse. It was 135
miles from my driveway to the lake house.


My wife had never been on a jet ski before so she was a little gun shy
of it but once I showed her how to operate it, I couldnt get her off of

it. We rode the jet skis for about 3 hours and by then some other
people has shown up and we all decided to go scuba diving. We loaded
all the dive gear on the boat and headed to Hells Gates. My wife and I
took the jet skis and my friend and his wife and a few others piled in
the boat. The water was still pretty cold and the visibility at about
60 feet was good. It was one cold motha at that depth. When we finished

up with the dive, we loaded all the gear back up and headed over to the

cliffs and went swimming for a hour or so and headed back up to the
house. We proably ran about 40 miles or so up the lake and back.


My friends father has a old Suzuki something or other. It is a full
dresser. That bike has everything but the kitchen sink on it. He asked
if I wanted to go for a ride around the lake so we did. That motorcycle

has set up for no telling how long so the battery was dead. He hooked
up the battery charger to it for a little while and hit the boost and
that bike fired right up. We rode all of park road 16 and got lost a
few times. Good riding though. We clocked about 100 miles or better.
When we got back to the house I asked where my wife was and she was out

on that jet ski. Now she wants me to sell my bass boat and buy two jet
skis..aint happnin.


I got the wife off that thing and told her we better head home before
dark because of the amount of deer that might be on the roads. I wanted

to atleast be in Weatherford when it got dark. We loaded up and we went

thru Mineral Wells on the way home. We made it back to Arlington just
after dark. We did see a few deer on the way home and also saw about
four wild turkeys. All in all we rode about 370 miles. My poor wife was

plum wore out when we got home. She hit the shower and straight to
bed..lol.


The best part was when we woke up Saturday morning and I asked her if
she wanted to go to the lake again. She gave me a crazy look and
said..LETS GO. We loaded up on the motorcycle and did it all over
again. We rode the same route going and comming home. We mainly just
rode jet skis and swam. The both of us are a little sun burnt but it
was worth it. We rode about 280 miles on the motorcycle and proably
about 60 miles on the jet skis or more. My motorcycle rolled over on
20,000 miles yesterday when we hit Weatherford.


Good times had by all. Ate alot of good food and got to ride my
motorcycle. What more in life can a man ask for.

Now, that was a nice motorcycle report.
You are right, it is so much fun, to ride and have the wife aboard, and
hear her say how much fun she had. Makes a feller feel right good.
We rode a little bit around town, and stuff. But soon, we're riding to
Hot Springs, for a long weekend. over Bjay~
