Sunday June 15, 2008 - North Fork to Lee Vining Our night at the South Fork was interesting. The motel owner actually gave us our money back as soon as we walked in the room and flipped on the air conditioner. When we turned the juice on, it started a ...

Saturday June 14, 2008 - Bakersfield to North Fork I guess Kenny’s zipper didn’t have the tensile strength to hold back the sheer force of his manaconda. It ended up blowing out, so before heading out for the day, we had to make a pitstop at Cyclegear to get him ...

Friday June 13, 2008 - San Luis Obispo to Bakersfield We rolled out of SLO and headed towards route 33 where we would be meeting up with Ed in Ojai. He was heading up from SoCal to meet us. Taft, California was once named Moron. You could smell the oil ...

Thursday June 12, 2008 - San Francisco to San Luis Obispo We were at the Dubbleju Motorcycle Rental place promptly at 9:00 to pick up our bikes for the next 9 days. The three of us were outfitted with BMW R1150Rs. Before I got to know my girl more intimately, ...

Sunday August 5, 2007 Every time we pass this store I end up singing the song Jamaica Inn by Tori Amos for the next 10 miles. We stopped in for a quick cup of coffee and a bite of delicious crumb, coffee cake. The lady at the store let me ...

Sunset near Rutland Kenny and I crossed over from New York into Vermont on Route 2 at Rouses Point. It's funny, but as soon as we rode across Lake Champlain and down Grand Isle, everything seemed so much… nicer? I can't tell if it is just mental, like the feeling ...

..in the Champlain Room. Yea, I know. Horrible. So what? I'm sitting here in my pajamas after two days of cleaning closets and sifting thru the remnants of a life on paper and that's all I got. On Friday August 3rd, we crossed out of New York on route 2 ...

Covered Bridge in Massachusettes along Rte 8A Parting ways with Dr. Daytona at Sugar and Spice in Mendon, Vt. Kenny, Me and the Dr. Woodstock, NH after a sizzling ride down 118. It was like sex on wheels. The kind of ride where you get off and just wanna highfive ...

FUZZ: Since returning back from Deal's Gap last summer, we kicked around what we would do this year for our trip. Romantically, you can fall in love with the road and you just want to go, go, go. Your head gets filled with fanciful ideas of things like, " Hey, ...
