The Mad Red Motherf**ker World Tour.
-
ha my father in law fell in LOVE with it while I had it. Wish I would've gotten some shots of him while he tried it on. I'm sure he'd love a turn next go around in the states.
He rides motorcycles and does bike trips on the reg, so I'm sure there'd be some cool shots.

The Mad Red is back in Minnesota, and though June isn't leather jacket weather, it's the best nature time of year in the upper midwest. We live in Carver County which is about 20 miles west southwest of the twin cities, and in 2018 it was named the "happiest place in America" whatever that means.
The Three Rivers Park district is the main park system in the metro area with hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, lakes for fishing and paddling, and tons more to do outdoors.
The first stop for the mad red is the Carver Park Reserve where we hiked some trails, gotten eaten by mosquitos, and hung out with a massive snapping turtle.

Impressive snapper. the jacket-damn it looks good.

I play softball 2 nights a week and though I love first base and outfield for their skill, my passion is to be on the pitchers mound. I promised I would wear the Mad Red for one inning, and I kept that promise. Both dugouts and the crowd were all confused, and I did get a "are you auditioning for the new Teen Wolf movie?" comment.
Mobility was limited so I didn't bat with it on, but it was a fun new adventure for the Mad Red.

Loving this tour stop!

Love to see your pics of the MRMF @jordanscollected !!

Thank you all for the kind reply’s. This is a difficult time for such a warm jacket, but I’m making the best of it.
A typical Saturday in the summer for me is spent outdoors fishing and/or horseback riding. Today I got to enjoy both. What has become glaringly obvious in Minnesota is that the “Pandemic bubble” has burst for outdoor activities. 2020 and 2021 saw a huge increase in boaters and fisherman on the lake, and hikers and trailer rider on the horseback trails.
That all changed this summer, and we had very little fishing competition on the water, and Allie and I had the 1300 acre park all but to ourselves. I can’t understand how so few people take advantage of the beauty of nature.

Going to be hot and steamy this weekend. We will try and ride early. This wet start to the MN summer has been amazing for the woods and pastures, but a nightmare for the bugs. The horses were getting annihilated by flies today, and it makes for a less comfortable ride as they twitch and battle.
We did stop for a moment to have a stare off with a white tail deer. We suspected she had little ones nearby, but we didn’t see them.
-
Still trying to find ways to wear the Mad Red. I may have to go out at night. Until then, someone awesome in my little town of Carver did a drone flyover compilation. Feel free to fast forward through it.
-
Sheesh. I slept in a bit due to rain, and still got to the launch by 5:50. We were the only boat on the water for 90 minutes to start the day. We’re finding numbers but not size. New lake next week.
In other news, my wife loves horses and we ride every weekend that we can. Bonus picture of a kitten. We forgot pictures but my wife’s client has a daughter with serious medical issues. She was selected to be the recipient of all proceeds of a yearly
Homerun derby with live auctions, food, drinks, a petting zoo (see kitten) and an incredible turnout in the small town of New Prague. -

@jordanscollected Very cool pool rack!! I didn’t know that you could get custom ones…Can you provide a link?
-
Sure thing @goosehd! It’s made by Delta 13 and was a gift from my wife. I actually use the magic rack template mostly now for its perfect rack tightness providing consistent breaks, but I love the Delta too.
-
@jordanscollected never wear the MRMF jacket to the pool bar. You’ll never get anybody to bet against you. It is quintessential pool shark attire! Very slick
-
It's a bit easier @motojobobo when the pool hall is my basement. My wife has all my money already so it's a safe bet.
the Mad Red would be quite intimidating to use as a gambling prop. I should try it.
-
killin it @jordanscollected !

@jordanscollected your photos are taking me back. I recently watched The Color of Money for the first time. Great flick. You could definitely hustle with Paul Newman in the MRMF.
