Back in March I took a Basic Riders Safety course at a local community college. One of the instructors, Jim ‘Ape Anderson, took everyone’s email to keep in touch with his students. I don’t really know how many he’s had, but I know he taught pretty much every weekend until this weekend. I talked him [...]

Because I know you’re just dying to know some of this stuff … ok, seriously, it’s because it’s stuff I might want to remember one day and I know I’ll forget
Doodle’s School: She recently had her fall intersession break (3 weeks out of school). My mother-in-law, Doodle and I went to the beach [...]

Happy anniversary Duck! I love you more than when we got married, and I definitely didn’t think that was possible. It seemed like it took you for-evah to figure out you wanted to marry me, but when you made up your mind, you really make up your mind.
Duck said that our 10th anniversary was the [...]

We survived the first day of the journey. We rode about 225 miles (I’ll have to get the exact mileage off my bike). When we checked into the hotel, I left my bike parked and rode with Duck to get a snack. It just would have taken more energy than I had at the moment [...]

Don’t worry about the destination, just enjoy the journey. That’s what Duck’s been saying to me this week. We’re packing up and heading out. We’re riding our motorcycles north to the start of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Leaving this afternoon and coming home Sunday. Keep us in your prayers for safety if you don’t mind [...]

I’m still in love with Duck — no worries there. But now I have a new love I’ve got my Sportster sold and we picked up my new bike this morning. I was nervous starting out riding it, but I absolutely LOVE it! It’s an awesome bike! The ride is so smooth and I [...]

Wuhoo! I’m on a roll this month First the stadium stairs, and now my Motorcycle Miles! We rode to dinner tonight which put me well over 500 miles.
Now Duck’s trying to say I need to get to 750 miles before he’ll let me ride his bike. Phooey, I say. I’ll go buy my own [...]
Before I took the Rider’s Safety Course back in March, one of the guys Duck works with was asking me a lot of questions — well, asking us a lot of questions about motorcycles. Tim W. (it’s important to distinguish because there are only 3 Tims who work in Duck’s department — not to mention [...]
Yesterday didn’t go at all according to my grand scheme. I was not able to stay off the computer as much as I’d hoped — I had a work project to complete. I did refrain from reading blogs, and only checked email for ones regarding the project. Duck worked from home which always throws my [...]
up the miles that is Duck and I rode to get dinner. I think I did better last night — I didn’t think about stuff too much. Tonight, my brain was worried about how I stopped and stuff that should just be natural. Of course Duck says it’ll just take practice, and today I’m [...]
