Been in the new house a year now. Always lived with well water. Never had a new house and some reason ppl dont put filter in the house and just have crappy water and sediment issues.  So every house I have owned I have to install them. Well the cheap guy I am,  been waiting for a deal like this. Found a under the sink reverse osmosis system for $60 NIB on Facebook Marketplace. So I rode the bike 30 mins east to get it. By far not the largest thing I have ever put on a bike. But the squarest for sure. Lol.  Did 75mph no problem.

Just a few random photos from around Houston, Texas.  

NRG Stadium, which now towers over the old historic Astrodome:

Murals and urban artwork are everywhere throughout Houston... I could spend a full day just exploring & finding more:

The grave of Howard Hughes, in Glenwood cemetery just northwest of downtown.  For all the people that have profited from his legacy, it’s sad that I’ve never seen fresh flowers or other signs of recognition at his gravesite:

And finally, Antioch Baptist Church, still standing proudly in the shadows of the Enron Tower.  The neon ‘Jesus Saves’ sign always strikes me as such an ironic contrast to the symbol of corporate greed and corruption that Enron ultimately became:

Despite the record rain this spring (second year in a row) and 60 hour work weeks, I've managed to get in about 4,500 miles this season despite the late spring.  Mostly cloudy and cool but no rain for a change...  Unfortunately, the longest ride has been only about 450 miles in a day.  Did get up to Road America for the MotoAmerica races the weekend before last.  Time for another set of RS3s though and and oil change.

Today, I took my annual Father's Day solo ride up to East Troy, WI (former home of Buell :( ) for my fav broasted chicken at Gus' Drive In (good frozen custard too but not as good as Adrian's in Burlington, WI).  Discovered they erected a freshly  restored "Muffler Man".  Gus' has a classic car and bike drive in on Saturdays, and live acts occasionally (see Elvis impersonator and my 98 110k mile VTR1000F).  Leduc's Frozen Custard in Wales, WI is a great spot but in Milwaukee there's Gilles, Leon's (not as good but they have good-bad Sloppy Joe's), Fred's, Kopp's & Kitt's; not too far is Ferch's and Bubba's...  Chance's in Rochester, WI is a good lunch stop but their weekend hours are goofy.  Fred's burgers in Burlington is old school but there's lots more.

Born to ride, work to ride, ride to eat frozen custard...but I've actually lost almost 35 pounds this year somehow.
