Well I've got a bit more time now, so let's do more than just dump some photos in here with little context. The short story is I decided to ride north to the Lost Coast, and area I've been by many times but never explored. Fate intervened again and I ended up in the Los … Continue reading When Troubles Come…
Well now I'm in California. It wasn't the plan to be here for several more weeks. I still had so much of Colorado to explore, but I got word that my cat was deathly sick, and I had to drop everything and go see for myself how bad things were. I still tried to make … Continue reading Rolling With The Changes
WordPress has managed to make things difficult yet again. Now that it has rearranged pictures out of order instead of doing a cut/paste, here we are. We'll just make this a random photo dump of the last month or so. This random site is the grave of a US soldier who died in 1880. His … Continue reading Pictures Will Have To Do
It seems like I've been right in saying Colorado needs to be its own trip. Every time I turn a corner or crest a hill there is another insanely beautiful vista. I see so many views in a day you'd think I would be desensitized after nearly a month, but I have to stop and … Continue reading Ups and Downs: Riding The Passes of Colorado
Well, I'm getting far behind on all my writing, so I'll make this far more brief than it should be. I've been back on the road since Memorial Day Weekend.

Returning to the West Coast after months of exploring the US, it was time to put down some miles; I finally had somewhere I was supposed to be...
Leaving the Airport Cafe in Hampton, NH left me few good options when it comes to combining scenic roads with making decent time. This was yet another major difference in the two sides of the United States. With so much open space in the Western US (especially in the desert) you can normally combine the … Continue reading Westward, Ho…but first…
I had finally made it. Honestly though, it didn't feel like a climax. I decided to ride to Maine to get a lobster roll on a lark. I mean, what else was I going to do? And so here I was, in Hampton, New Hampshire, ready to cross over into Maine and accomplish my goal, … Continue reading Of Lobster Rolls And Bridge Trolls
[The story continues, starting on the West Virginia and Maryland border, the Potomac River.] Antietam campground was peaceful when I woke, and I had my morning coffee on the shore of the Potomac. Once packed up I crossed back over into Shepardstown, WV for breakfast. The town was such a strange mix of old-world America … Continue reading Reaching The Apex
