Long Ride

[cjs2]

Well, I went on my first extended ride with my 86. I had to drive to the in laws in PA and decided to cruise with the top off and see how she does. Before this, I merely went for local rides, or a quick hop down the shore. This was a two hour and forty five minute ride (each way, done in one day). Most of it was on 78, but I had to take a two lane road for the last 45 minutes. What a ride. She did great. Handled like a champ on the curves and performed flawlessly!!! Saw a couple fellow owners on the road and everyone waved and smiled... I think we were all enjoying a bit of excellent weather!! Got a little sunburn (OK a lot), but well worth it. I can't wait for my next long distance adventure!!! Next time, I think I will wear a hat though!!!

Yeah, my car made it from South Bend Indiana, all the way down to Bowling Green Kentucky, without a problem. They are awesome cars to get in and drive. Glad to hear that your trip went well!
