Wheelie fails.....

Fun to watch; not so good for the collective's insurance rates, tho.


2015 Ironbutt Rally started yesterday.

Nothing like timely headlines around this place. No wonder I don't work in the news business any more. Updates and such, go here.

Survived a long vacation with the family out East that included a wedding. Whew

Now back to the business at hand here on the blog. Got some catching up to do. In the spirit of vacations, here you go.

Happy Ride To Work Day

This is how this works:
1) Wake up
2) Shower
3) Coffee
4) Let the dog out
5) Give groggy wife goodbye kiss
6) Go to work on motorcycle

Rather simple.

Walt Ride '15: Round 3

Silly stuff.









Thursday, June 11, 2015

Two important things of note

1) Antique Motorcycle Club of America Viking Chapter show at the MN state fairgrounds is this weekend. You have better things to do than to mow your grass and pick up dog pooh from the lawn; This show is one of 'em. Get there. http://www.vikingmc.org/

.



2)Ride To Work Day is Monday. If you are a candy-ass, you'll drive your car. And that would be stupid.
