Here is the video of my ride from Douglasville, Georgia to Atlanta, Georgia.
On Saturday June 10th, 2023 I went on a short but surprisingly long in time ride from my home outside of Douglasville, GA to Downtown & Midtown Atlanta. I left home in the mid afternoon and as is typical for the Atlanta metropolitan area, traffic became a monster along with the Atlanta Metro’s uber aggressive drivers (being passed in no passing zones, being passed on shoulder, etc). For myself and Dexter (my motorcycle) the ride was uneventful. I did discover while I was walking the capital grounds that I had left my wallet at home DOH!!
So, there was no stopping to get gasoline or any beverages. In downtown Atlanta it was actually pretty warm right around 90 degrees. I ended up using my emergency 1 gallon of fuel and poured it into my tank…..emergency fuel used in downtown Atlanta LOL.
A video of the ride will be posted soon on my YouTube channel. In the meantime, here are some pics of the Georgia Capitol building and grounds. 🙂

Thanks to Chris who came to my rescue on Day 2, who gave me extra wire and better pliers than what I had and I was able to wire up the shifter quickly.
