(author’s note - finally going back and finishing this entry now that my hand is better and I can type).
With the new AirHawk pad in place under my posterior, I set off down US 1 toward Titusville. The AirHawk makes a nice difference in riding comfort for longer stretches in the saddle.
Passed south through Daytona, and continued down the coast on Route 1. Along the way, a desire for lunch began to build, and I started browsing the establishments I passed, looking for something appealing for lunch. As I rode along, I came across Rossi’s diner. Just what I was looking for. Genuine homestyle cooking. Had a nice turkey club sandwich that was just like the fare you got at home the day after Thanksgiving. Really hit the spot.
Got back on Route 1 and headed south into Titusville, enjoying the view across the Indian River. The massive Vehicle Assembly building dominates the horizon. It’s hard to appreciate the scale of this massive building.
Turned off Route 1 onto Route 50 and headed home. A long trip (about 4 hours total), and a lot of fun.

Rode up to Destination Daytona to check out the Airhawk seat pads at J&P Cycles. Liked it a lot, and bought one. Now to butt-test it…..
