The Year In Review . . . 2022 At A Glance !
I was always too lazy to write one of those Year In Review letters that some folks enclose with their Christmas cards. But this year I thought I grab some photos and clips that are not from my “on the road” travels and put together a short Year In Review. Parental discretion is advised . . . my cat swears more than I do (well close anyway). [sorry for the long pause in the beginning of this post]
Mainely Adventures
Although I went to college in Maine, I never really explored the wild surrounds of the forest and sea. This past weekend we had a wonderful time doing exploration by ATVs and walking the rocky shores. I am grateful to have Pat, Kate and the kids in my life. They remind me what is important.
Time For A Change (again) ?
Not reaching out to the Continental Divide “Trail Boss” . . . . but I have missed the ability to explore dirt roads since selling the BMW R1200 GS. Plan B surfaces!!
Fall 2022 – Watkins Glen State Park Run
After coming off a rather unexpected dismount on the 2022 Mother Road Tour – we decided to keep our tradition of an annual fall ride going. Unlike any prior Fall Run …… this year would be a wet one.
We headed to Lake George NY for the first night. That began the wet run of 2022. That weather pattern would stay with us for the entire trip – however day 1 would force us to seek cover under a Motel 6 awning!
The only photos and videos that we did during this trip was at Watkins Glen State Park. This short video is without narrative. The park was a bit underwhelming after summer runs to the Utah National Parks.
But we continued our traditions and will begin to think about next year’s end of season run.
Nashville “You’ve Got Gold” . . . and,
We returned to Nashville to attend the tribute show and country music walk of fame dedication to the late John Prine.
We had not been back to Nashville since before the 2020 Christmas day bombing of second avenue. Our first day in Nashville we set out to walk down to second ave.
Just my thoughts . . . .
So, if you are looking for catalog of photos from the Castle Car Show ……. you will not find that. If you are looking for the lines, curves, bends and forms of American steel …. You may find that.
One Month Later …. or thereabouts.
After traveling nearly 11,000 miles and being on the road for a couple of month …. I was reminded by our weekend ride …… that New England is a great place to ride and to live.
The Story of the RHG Silver Bullet Hauler
This is the story of the RHG Silver Bullet Hauler. It starts with training at RawHyde Adventures in Colorado. Includes a brief notoriety of the infamous “Trail Boss” and some disclaimers! It’s not intended to be taken too seriously…. it was a cold snowy day and I found some photos of the Silver Bullet build. Thus, the post 😉
Motorcycles & Railrider Cycling
Sometimes you don’t need a motor or a narrative.
