hitting the road

Get out of work, jump on Jenny. North up 32 to route 2a, across the bridge, down 12 and swing onto 214. Roll through the twists and turns climb up the valley to 117 and across, whip the bike up hill through the esses at Mashantucket then down through the sweeps to route 2 at Foxwoods. Straight at the light, crank the throttle up hill leaning the bike over with the left heel of my boot dragging the pavement, then drop it over and sweep down hill through that long right turn onto 2. Crank the throttle again and fly down 2, at Preston Flats grab route 164 north then a right on Northwest Corner road. NW Corner is a great road to enjoy the corners and hills, hook a left on Miller and dump out on 201 near Billings Lake. A left on 201 crank the throttle for the esses, over the hill, drop into the valley with that fast right sweep, climb up, over, a quick right left flick, a drop, a left, and a climb. Break out of the trees at the farm on the ridge and hook a right turn on Gilliver, twist through Pachaug forest, Gilliver becomes Hodge Pond, more rolls and curves and out onto route 49. Left on 49, roll north to Voluntown, wind sweeping past you, drop down onto 165, and 138, a left back onto 49 and a throttle ride north past Ekonk to 14 and Sterling. A right turn run east on 14a and 14 into Rhode Island......Wait a minute... It's 5 after 12. 
We work till 2 now.
Guess I'll just keep sitting here like a bump on a log.
