With a little help from the late, great Robert M. Pirsig, we ride our motorcycles to a place we've never been before and enjoy a Sunday ride that is completely in the moment. No plans, no schedule, no hurry, just Clif on his Yamaha FJR1300, Britt on his Harley-Davidson Dyna, and me on my FZ-07 as we explore flora and fauna in the red dirt country of West Texas on a beautiful autumn day. Additional notes on this episode: 1.) Texas's only natural lake is Caddo Lake, which it shares with Louisiana. 2.) Texas has 187 manmade lakes/reservoirs. 3.) The Hedge Apples in this video are Maclura Pomifera. 4.) Mrs. Kathy's is located at 3413 College Avenue in Snyder, Texas. 5.) Total mileage for this trip was 171. 6.) Shoot date was Sunday October 13, 2019.
