Colorado High

Colorado High

October 1 - 4, 2020

The annual fall ride! For the last 5 years, we have headed to Colorado to see the fall colors on the first weekend of October. The first time we went the colors were unbelievable in their vibrance. It was also a little rainy which brought out the colors even more. Since then, we have headed back to relive that ride…still chasing that first-time high!

Once again on the road, what better place could there be?

This is a quick weekend getaway to somewhere cooler and just a nice easy ride, and to relax in the great outdoors. I’m also testing a sheep-skin seat cover, even though my friends are trying to shame me about it. I’m also going back to my leather chaps for the heat.

Journaling Your Ride

Journaling Your Ride

July 3, 2020

The wife and I ride about 20,000 miles a year and like to document our rides, not only with pictures but also with journal-type information. I usually keep a gas log and she has a little notebook or uses the Note App on her iPhone for journaling. Then, at the end of the ride, I put together a ride report, or story of our travels. I’m sure many of you do the same thing.
