december riding

i had the afternoon off and the temperature was close to 70 degrees. couldn't pass up a chance to ride. never understood why people store their bikes for the winter. i'm trying to ride at least once every month of the year. blasted out I-70 past plainfield, then got on some back roads. goat hollow road, robb hill road, bunker hill road. stopped and checked out an old observatory. tried to take it off road to park by some old barns and crashed in the mud.
