I have several jackets (male and female), a full body suit and several helmets gathering dust. My original intention was to pass them along to someone who could use them, but... Helmets have a shelf life, and I'm pretty sure I'm just going to disassemble the two I have and discard the parts...

This motorcycle has been sold. After four years with this magnificent beast, it's time to let her go. Bought it new at I90 Motorsports in Issaquah, WA. Crazy fun and capable. That's not a typo in the title as she's only covered about 2,200 miles. Most of which was back and forth to forest...

Messing around today I pulled together a video of the 690 Enduro R hanging out in my garage. Had it since new in 2012. Still an awesome machine, despite my lack of skill and not riding it much... The quality of the editing is a bit poor because I was using a free version of the software I had...

I may have to pinch myself. Besides enjoying that kind of stuff, I need to see if I'm dreaming... ;) See, this morning, while indulging in some mindless car shopping online (I'm always looking, though rarely buying.) I happened to say out loud...:Oh, my. I may have found the replacement for...

Diesel dilemma got ya down? How do you rebound? Solve a problem! like how to back up a trailer...at high speeds... https://www.chonday.com/Videos/trailerghu4 Safe for work, safe for kids, though you language at points might be colorful. ;) I started off meh, went to "OK, cool" and ended at...

I know, some of you are going to say "You need help BECAUSE you're moving to Cali!"... Some of you may even be tempted by your own local weather to volunteer sight unseen for anything that'll get you to California! But this one is simple... On the nights of March 10 and 11, I need somewhere...

Looks like i'm going to grab a week next month and run down to Motoport to have Wayne measure me for a suit. I'll be taking a week off, so I'm planning routes now. Timing on when I am at the shop is flexible right now, but I'll lock an appointment as soon as I choose a route. I know I can slab...

So...suck it. 300 CCs of raging Italian style. Well, 282 CCs, if we're being honest...but you know the marketing types!

Right, second try to post - first locked up when I tried to add an image...sigh... I'm ok giving up some highway performance to get a bit better performance offroad. I simply want to have to feather the clutch less on single/double tracks. Not covering any real high speed miles, but I'm not...

I shared this recently with some folks at work. Hudson was one fo them and he suggested you guys might enjoy this one, too, so here goes... WARNING: This is a LONG post – some pics, but mostly words. If you typed them in a straight line, they’d reach out to 134 feet. That’s over 4100 words. If...

WAY ahead of the curve, I realize...but... Just got a new Super Tenere and it has me thinking of all kinds of crazy shit - this being one of them. :) So...anyone thinking of FODS for '14 this far out?

Talking to Don at I90 Motorsports today and he told me they sold my FJR! Guess that one wash was just what was needed. ;) :D I *think that means we'll see it around, so fingers crossed the new owner will show up here. :)

Some rules - if it's here, I have not received payment, so it's either pending sale or still for sale. I'll mark items sold as they head out the door. Prices INCLUDE shipping to simplify everything for you. Prices have been pre-haggled for your convenience, too, so what you see is reasonable...

Left for a ride today on my trusty FJR... (which, as you can see, has been lovingly hand washed while I've been on vacation - first wash since I bought it in '09, in fact... ) ...and came home on a new bike... (2012 Yamaha Super Tenere) We'll see how this goes... In reality, I've been...

I'm going to be at the QFC in Redmond Ridge (across from Trilogy Golf Course) on Novelty Hill Road at 8AM-ish Saturday morning. I'll head down into the valley, out towards Carnation and thence past the Falls and towards Auburn's place. Happy to guide folks from those areas if they choose to...

The day in pictures... We had lots of great... There were plenty of interesting people to watch... There was even some work accomplished... Full album of images is here...

Fine food, fine friends, fine dog... what else can I say? Thanks guys (everyone) for another excellent Tech Day! Special thanks to:   Brian & Marissa for the invitation & hospitality :) Jackson & Hudson (Dave's spawn) for the entertainment ;) ...everyone else for the laughs and warm...

Should be picking it up in the morning. Can't wait. Been a long time since a ride on a bike had me so emotionally attached as quickly as my test ride on this thing did 2 weeks ago! Fun, fun, fun! 2012 KTM 690 Enduro R... Now I need to find some dirt on the ride home!!!

Special thanks are due to the organizers who pulled off this excellent event. Lots of work and a great location! Also great to meet new folks and see old friends. Had such a great time touring around the area the last two days and chatting with everyone. So cool to meet folks from back home...
