GC Mode! I love switching into GC Mode and letting the K’s roll off the rubber. With the Grand Challenge (1,000 miles in 24 hours) looming at the end of October and me having done very little riding, today I decided to go for my first conditioning ride in order to harden up the butt and try to get the mind and body into the endurance groove. It was a last minute decision to do this, so it was to be a solo ride and to expedite matters, I just pulled an unused 1,000Km ride plan and ...
Happened just down the street from me. Morons, get off the fucking phone. A 57-year-old East Helena man was severely injured in a crash on Highway 12 Friday night. The man was driving a motorcycle about 9 p.m. traveling southbound on First Street in East Helena when he was struck by a passenger car with two occupants. The driver of the car was headed eastbound on Highway 12 and ran a red light after being distracted by his phone, according to Montana Highway Patrol ...

I had one of the motorcycle Popos out there on the track on his Popo-mobeel, and I was in the pits just engaging with as many as I could. It was a great ...
So. Here I am on the other side of 40 with a learners licence and a bike in hand. Am I sick of the riding like I quickly did with driving a car? Not even close! Matter of fact I'd wished I did this sooner. But such is life. I started a family early with my beautiful - and very tolerant - wife. As I did so, I watched my brother and my cousins riding along on their VF750 Sports, CB600s and CX500 customs with envy. 20 years down the line and they no longer ride. My family have ...
Yeah, fine, OK, so I’m dragging out the trip by one more blog. Look out for the book and souvenirs coming to a store near you. We’re gonna commercialise the hell of out of this. I can see the headlines now… “Harleys survive a trip with a BMW”. Well, if you’re still reading my blogs, I’m impressed. By now you have read more than 98 pages of writing (I write the blogs in MS Word first), in excess of 64,500 words, and viewed more than 2,200 pictures. Originally, I wrote my blogs ...
18 months since my last blog...guess this one is o/due I was going to write about the trip up to site yesterday....cept the story starts in Rolleston 2 weeks ago...on the way to the airport to return to work. Suitcase was a little light for the return, so off to the supermarket to stock up with essentials....gluten free pasta, gf biscuits, gf caramel slice, gf....you get the drift, GF foods are scarce here in Urkadurkastan....then to Henry's for a couple of bottles of Bundy for the ...
It is so easy to give away your precious time to everyone but yourself. How many of us know this, yet ignore the signs and battle on anyway? Do we realise the cost we impose on ourselves? We work, eat, sleep and recycle the pattern...that’s how my last 2 years have been anyway. And now it’s my time. Time for me to be myself and not have to care what anyone thinks of my comments, or what my statements may mean, time that I can no longer care if anyone misinterprets my attempts ...
