Summer is trying to arrive


So it is now June 2nd and Seattle is really trying to be sunny. We get our typical 3 - 4 days of rain and 2 - 3 days of sun. I like the sun to motorcycle in but I learned a long time ago when i lived in New York that to appreciate the sun you have to have the rainy weather.

When I was 19 I moved from perpetually sunny Tucson, Arizona to Manhatten, New York. I noticed that not everyday had clear skies and that when there was a sunny day everyone came out, they were happier and sat outside and just radiated contentment. Its because they knew thay had to take advantage of that rare occurance.

So without the challenges or the crappy times we wouldn't value the good times. I just told a good friend of mine that nothing is destroyed it is just changed.

Now to remember that whenever challanged.

Heading for RawHyde

Hey, so I am leaving this Sunday October 16th 2011 for Rawhyde Intro to Adventure in California. Riding my new 2011 R1200 GS down. Just getting all my gear together. I'll try to post pics and chat a bit.

I just bought Sidi Adventure Rain boots. They are a bit stiff so I've been wearing them everyday. They squeak when you walk. Not so thrilled about that but otherwise they are conmfy. Trying to shift with them and having a bit of a problem. Looking to solve that.
More to come.

Leavenworth, Washington


So yesterday I met up with a couple of friends to go for lunch in Leavenworth. It's our re-creation of a Bavarian Village. It's pretty easy to get to via Highway 2 thru the scenic Wenatchee National Forest.

The group I rode with were primarily Lesbians and two straight friends. It was nice to meet "Family" who ride. I haven't had that opportunity much. I was the only male for most of the trip and the only one without a cruiser. But it was all good. The weather was amazing. Almost too hot in Leavenworth, which is not really my kind of place but the ride there is always pretty and the company great.

So all in all it was a good Saturday.
