Truck Cleaning – 9/27/2015
So the new truck needed some love when I got home. It was many kinds of dirty! The seats were nasty and ripped. Danelle spent tons of time cleaning them first, then doing her best to patch them. I didn’t do a great job with before and after photos, but you are not going to … Continue reading “Truck Cleaning – 9/27/2015”

Colorado Motorcycle Trip – 9/22/2015
The first half of this day was the most frustrating day of my whole trip. I started with me waking up and trying my best to sleep in. The motel was nice.

Colorado Motorcycle Trip, part 2 – 9/20/2015
After my problems, the rest of the day was going to be smooth riding. I just knew it. In face, the perfect air and view on the San Juan mountains showed me they would be! Okay, so maybe there was something up with the perfect air. I know a fire when I see one! But … Continue reading “Colorado Motorcycle Trip, part 2 – 9/20/2015”

Today was a day of pain, opportunity, and luck. It started out as the previous two had, in a motel room quickly getting ready before the sun came up. I had about an hour’s ride before I got to Silverton, CO, the northern gem of the Million Dollar Highway. From there south for at least … Continue reading “Colorado Motorcycle Trip – 9/20/2015”
Colorado Motorcycle Trip – 9/19/2015
I woke up to a brisk 41°F this morning. I didn’t want to waste any sunlight, so I packed quickly and got some gas station breakfast and headed out. I made it all the way to Denver and a little past on a single tank of gas, getting 220 miles without hitting the reserve. I … Continue reading “Colorado Motorcycle Trip – 9/19/2015”

Two Ferry Ride Again – 9/13/2015
Okay, I swear this is the last time for a while that I do this ride! I went with Eric Ent from work and Sonora on the back of my bike. We tried to get his sister to join us, but she couldn’t make it. We made a slight variation on the last two rides, … Continue reading “Two Ferry Ride Again – 9/13/2015”
