Not sure all where Johnny went, but we started down in Belleville and cut up 92 to Mt Horeb, then went up JG, from Stewart lake county park to Brigham county park.   Then cut through Vermont Township on Zwettler and Sweeny roads, up HH, Coon Rock to Hi Point, to American Players Theatre.  Then I snuck down county T and looped around the far side of Blue Mounds, down through the south part of JG where it goes along the upper Sugar River and was back home 115 miles later.

Hope to see ya out next time!

That looks like a great ride - I have been on some of those roads but it has been many years. I only made about 37 miles, but it was a fun 37 miles. There is still a lot of sand left over from road treatment on the corners and between the lanes in this part of the state.

Yeah a few of the smaller roads were sandy enough for some oh shit moments, but I never actually broke traction.  That ZZ looks like a nice ride.  I like hiking the Kettle Moraine.

When I was a kid we used to go to the Elegant Farmer as a day trip - I even had a birthday party train ride up there!  Nice area.

Yeah there are some no joke turns on JG and the road conditions can be dicey af - I hope he's doing ok! 

J to JG is my favorite hour and a half lunch break ride out of Madison, get lunch at the Grump Troll and zip back to the office on rt 18.    JG lulls you into confidence with a few 25 mile an hour turns you can take at 50mph, and then mixes in a few 15 MPH turns that you better take at 25.

I drifted my k11 going across my muddy lawn getting it out of the shed saturday night - no thanks! Maybe on a DRZ400.

Weather is warming, time for some social distancing.

nice.  for fun i like shooting with iron sights the most, so i don't have any glass.  limits my effective range, I guess, but I still put 'em on a paper plate at the long range @ yellowstone lake. :berninaor

I get why groms would be fun in a city - but I don't see why they cost so much even used!  Been side eyeing the VStrom 650s actually..   But I brazed the holes in my k75 tank shut, so if I can get the stubborn last bits of tank liner out i'll just have to see if i can find some big block dual sport ti0rs and some more fur.
