Having been in The Maritime region of Canada for about a month, I'm sure it was a good idea to finally make it this far northeast. The weather alone works for me, with a similar feel to the Pacific Northwest and Northern California. Prince Edward Island (PEI) has bee especially picturesque. It feels like I'm … Continue reading Canadian Coastlines and Islands
The delays have been necessary, but it's still a relief to have gotten into New Brunswick, Canada. The weather is most welcome, the fuel prices least. It's time to slow down and get off the main roads though, so fuel economy will go up. The trip is finally in the "trip" phase and not the … Continue reading Finally, Canada
There has been a lot going on, but not a lot that's newsworthy. By the time this post goes live I will be leaving Texas and making tracks northeast. It was supposed to happen in early June but whatever...life often has its own plans. I've made good use of my time in Texas though, on … Continue reading Finally, The Journey North Begins
The same is true for returning home. You can't come back home, because it will have changed, just like the flowing waters of a river change with every moment. Born and raised in California, I have a lot I dislike about the general direction the people and government want to take the state, but I'll … Continue reading You Can’t Cross The Same River Twice
I'm usually more excited about getting out on the road by now. By the time April comes each year, I've usually prepped the bike for the coming year, mapped out a general route, added dozens of waypoints to visit, and built a spreadsheet of costs and contingency plans. Instead, I'm still at that "coffee and … Continue reading A Map and a Cup of Coffee
[Looking back from ten years in the future, little has changed. I have been using the 5.11 Atac 2.0 8-in Tactical Boot for everything. It is literally all I wear unless I'm in soft shoes at a campsite (they also have insulated and waterproof versions). Moto-boots can't handle the trail, so I have to risk … Continue reading Hiking And Motorcycling Boots
Mini-bike racing and an upcoming return to the American Southwest. #jkroams
Just a quick note. Because I got a new helmet and need a new mount for my camera, I don't have many pictures to share of my travels recently. I reckon most of you just scroll through and look at the pics anyway, so why waste time writing about things if there's not photos to … Continue reading A Ride Through the Heart of Vintage Motorcycle Culture
The ride home gave me time to reflect on Sturgis Rally 2025 and my time with Motorcycle Missions. #motorcyclemissions #harleydavidson #sturgis2025 #jkroams
Well Sturgis Rally 2025 is in the books. I am beginning my journey toward Kentucky in the morning. I'll back up though and give a recap. As usual, the only reason I would go to this event is supporting a charity. This time it was Motorcycle Missions (MM). It was my second event with them … Continue reading The Road To Sturgis: Motorcycle Mission
