    Windsong of the West

    Since this thread got resuscitated..... and I got a little farther along on the pics and vids.... here is some video footage from Glacier NP. We had already crested the summit, and we were coasting down the west side of the mountain. The helmet cam just doesn't capture the whole view...

    SFO 2016 - Oct. 27th thru Oct. 30th in Jemison, Alabama!

    Well, I'll be danged! Gonna get the full southern hospitality on this trip!!! And I think I'm gonna add a night to my "reservation".... Looking like I might prefer to roll in on Thursday night. So I can experience more of the south. That will give me Friday AND Saturday to follow someone...

    SFO 2016 - Oct. 27th thru Oct. 30th in Jemison, Alabama!

    I don't know..... this is sounding too organized..... Lol. Group rides? Departure times? What!?!? These were my plans for the weekend- Show up at some woods in Alabama. Lay down a sleeping bag. Eat, drink, and be merry. Maybe sleep. Wake up when someone kicks me. Ride the bike...

    FJR Tech Day XIII

    I'll throw my hat in the ring..... I might show up in the evening. On Saturday. Mostly for food. And entertainment. But I gotta leave after a few hours. I've got farm work duties for that weekend. I mean, you're only like 65 miles away from me..... heck, that's easy peasy.

    Windsong of the West

    Another video edited and uploaded... This was on Tuesday morning headed home. Early morning departure from the hotel in a thunderstorm. Sometimes getting out of your comfort zone makes for an interesting adventure. It was a learning and growing experience for me- that's for sure...

    SFO 2016 - Oct. 27th thru Oct. 30th in Jemison, Alabama!

    I will take full responsibilty. You can thank me my shaking my hand that weekend. But whatever you decide, I understand.... mostly. 1- I have no dependent family, 2- my jobs are pretty laid back, 3- I'm learning to like people. Just remember, this is still a "few" weeks away. Plenty of...

    Windsong of the West

    I will see what I can do. I can ride and write... but putting those blurbs, captions, and pictures into an article for a magazine? That's crossing the line!!! And I've already got a subscription to (or access to) many of the great motorcycle magazines- AMA, RoadRunner, Rider, (I forget the...

    So this must be the southern event in late October I was told about..... This tempts me.... I'll have to see how the other weekends in October line up for events and shindigs. I've been told I need to work occasionally.... Lol.
