One rider’s sporadic thoughts on motorcycling and whatever else life throws at him.
The gas situation here in Atlanta is getting even worse than it has been. Nothing! Nada! No gas anywhere. When a truck does get here, it is unloaded and immediately sucked up by the many cars in line waiting. This cycle occurs in just a couple of hours so you don’t hear about the truck [...]
You know, there are some problems that go along with keeping an older bike. My battery died as I was about to leave on my Kentucky ride so I had to take the F650. That ride convinced me I need to sell the F650. It also showed me how fragile an older bike is. What [...]
Well, it has sadly come to an end. My Fall break week off!
Yesterday and today we went out and did some geocaching in the area to complete the week’s activities and get a little exercise tromping through some woods and parks around here.
Tomorrow, its back to school.
I should get my parts this week for the [...]

I rode up I-75 to Cleveland, TN on the other side of Chattanooga and met JB at the MacDonald’s at exit 25-Hwy 60. After a casual break over coffee and an apple turnover, we hopped on the bikes and headed northwest on 60, then crossing a little mountain on Hwy 30 we picked up US [...]
I pulled into my drive last night just before 8PM, and dark was coming fast. My legs and butt were just about as tired as they ever were riding and I think I have made up my mind about what to do with the little F650. More on that later.
I got up early Monday morning [...]
…or “The Day The Gas Ran Out”…That’s right! I rode Thumper over to my daughter’s house yesterday, across the north Atlanta metro area some 50 miles, and witnessed approximately 3/4 of the gas stations I passed being completely out of gas! Luckily I didn’t need to stop and buy any. This little bike routinely gets [...]
Next week I have the whole week off for our annual Fall Break. Never heard of it? That’s because there’s not another school district in the country that does it. Actually I may be wrong on that statement. I haven’t investigated to find out, nor will I waste my time doing it. I just think [...]
That’s right! We managed to pick up our lawn chairs at about 6:45 and walk the half mile down to the town park where a “Greenstock” concert was to be held. The lawn was beginning to fill up when we arrived, but an ominous dark cloud approached, threatening our evening festivities.
People were spreading blankets…
And taking [...]
As we readied for our geocaching expidition I was told we had to make a stop at the post office…for stamps.
Well, we got to the post office and I saw this beautiful yellow Lamborghini…It was worth the wait. We left the post office and headed for our first search. The coordinates took us to this [...]
