As of today I'm officially RETIRED! Say yeah! That is all.

 

Very righteous, now whatcha gonna do now that you can do anything you want?

 

Number one on the priority list is to ride every day, weather permitting.
I have several projects that have been waiting for the time to see them through.

 

Sweet!

 

That's awesome, congrats! Did you take one of those first day of retirement sunrise photos?

 

Congrats!

I am17 months out and counting down to the day.

 

No,did not think to do that, and I was up pre dawn. It is a very usual day as it is heavy overcast and wet.

 

Way cool! I have 25 more years! Congrats!

 

Do those chores / Honey Do's

Then RIDE EVERYWHERE

Thats what I'm going to do - in some years - hmmm about 15 more + /-

Sooner if my brother wins the lottery.

I'll give U a month.

Then 9/1 - Head East

Stop at Barber, Ride The Snake in Tenn/NC, Ride the Smokies, hit beaches, go tour DC, Eat Crabs in Md., in early Oct. ride NH & Vt for the roads & Leaf peeping, make a left and ride Upstate NY thru the ADacks, Go to Cleveland and see the Rock & Roll HOF, Go to ChiTown & eat steak, get back to Az before the Snow comes. Now thats a tour

 

Congrats! I've been "working" at retirement for four years. You'll love it. You will ask yourself, more than once, can it get any better and it does!

 

Holy mega tour Batman. That is an awesome itinerary. You should be a moto tour planer.
When I was 19 I did a round the US tour in a 1968 BMW 2002. Put 20+K miles on the clock. Time to do it again.
I want to do a less ambitious tour to CA to visit some old friends first. That will help me strengthen for a longer time on the road.
Thank you all for the good thoughts.
