Topic: Mountains
On this particular day, two of us were ready to beat the heat and head back to the hotel so he and I went one way and the group went another. The trip back to the hotel dictated that we ride the Tail of the Dragon. Once we were at Deals Gap, we had two options to Robbinsville, NC. «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: Getting What You Deserve
What began as a three man trip turned into a group of seven brothers eager to take whatever the landscape could throw at us. Of course we did the Devil’s Triangle, Tail of the Dragon, Wayah Road, the Moonshiner and a day trip to Helen Georgia. We had hot and steamy weather, for the most part, although a portion of the group were drenched in a downpour on Friday afternoon. «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: Looking Back
Self improvement is a never ending process. Learning from your mistakes is critical. To just simply ignore the things that happen in your life as coincidence is wrong. In my opinion, I believe that things happen for a reason, and I’ve got to recognize that. I don’t want to be better than everybody else, I just want to be better than I was yesterday. «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: Rocky Mountain High – Part 2
This would be my second visit to Colorado having been here in 2017. It was magnificent then and it’s magnificent now. Just having the Colorado mountains in the background makes it so beautiful. And, the altitude reminds me that I’m not in Kansas anymore. «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: The Last Ride
I’ve shared with you before, that the time I spend on my motorcycle, is the closest I come to being truly in touch with my life. I have so much time to think of what was, and what will be. Things I’ve done, both good and bad, places I’ve been, people I’ve met. What kind of man have I been. What kind of father, husband, friend. You have a lot of time to think, especially if you’re cutting across Kansas. LOL! «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Opinion | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: The Future For Harley Davidson
All of us have our favorite motorcycle brand, and we all have our reasons for it. When I started riding three years ago, I was always going to ride a Harley. I think EVERYBODY wants to ride a Harley at some point and I was one of them. I wanted to explore the culture and the people. I was new to the lifestyle and it was all very intriguing. There was no science to my decision. «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: Happy New Year
The gyms will be packed. The latest diet fads will be started and new relationships will begin. Some relationships will end and a “fresh start” will be the order of the day. I’ve been down that road so many times that I can’t even count. I’ve reached the point in my life, that making change can occur at any moment. I don’t need to wait on the calendar to decide if I need to shift gears in my life. If I need to do it, I just do it, or at least TRY to. It’s not always easy to make necessary changes. «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: Riding With Old Man Winter
Living in the south presents a different kind of winter. We have days we can ride, but we might go weeks before we get a couple of days to do so. Some of the brothers and sisters I meet here live in parts of the country where the winters are BRUTAL! So what do we do during these cold winter months? «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: It’s A Journey Not A Destination
Have you ever wondered just WHAT this journey is? Does it matter? In my short time as a biker, I’ve discovered that this one theme is the common thread that connects us. To me, it speaks volumes about how we don’t ever want the “journey” to end. We want to ride forever. We don’t want there to be a “destination” because that implies that the journey is over. Too deep? «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: Looking Back At 2017
If you’ve been following my story and the journey I’ve undertaken, you know what a real lifesaver this motorcycle has been to me. And don’t think that the irony of that statement has been missed by me. I’ve said it MANY times, that I never EVER expected to be in this place in my life, owning a Harley and traveling all over the country. When I tell people I’ve put 70,000 miles on my bike in just under two years, they look at me with total misbelief. «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
