First Spring ride

Got Stella out this afternoon, aired up the tires and turned on the key. The fuel pump wined a little. I turned it off and back on, sounded fine. Maybe a little dry after a long winters nap. Full tank of fresh gas and headed up to Saluda NC through the Greenville watershed. I took it pretty easy bring out of practice but also because there was so much mud and gravel on the roads, lane closures, closed roads, quarry trucks, logging trucks and Grandma's looking at their cell phones. Still managed to break the ton and pull the front wheel a few times. Great to be back on the road.
