Black Friday 2017

Black Friday.  Ugh.  One of the days a year we only hear about the worst of our humanity.  I make it habit to go riding on this day to get away from the TV and insanity.  Jon and I haven't gone on a ride in a long time, and I hadn't seen him and Adell... Continue Reading →

GMR and Cold Brew

Oh, GMR how I missed you, but with a bike I wasn't confident in, I didn't want to get up in the hills and break down.  Nick at Valley Desmo got it working right a couple weeks ago. Now with it fixed it was time for a GMR run, and to take Robert up there for... Continue Reading →

Azusa Canyon April 1

My buddy Robert had never been to Azusa Canyon, and I hadn't been on a pleasure ride in.. months.. since before my bike broke.  What?  Since May of last year?  Holy Crap.  The weather has cleared up and been beautiful the last couple weekends, but I've been busy.  I cancelled some things so I could...

Fumes

Running on fumes.  We've all said it before.  Last time I ran out of gas I was luckily in my driveway, wondering why my bike wouldn't start.  I usually fill up after 160 miles, maybe 180.  That day with a coughing, weezing bike in my driveway, I had 211 miles on the tank.  The other...

Glendora Mtn Road Feb 8

I had a day off work so I decided to take a spin up to GMR.  I'd heard the road up to Crystal Lake was damaged and closed so I wanted to see what was going on.  GMR is so close, it's a quick getaway with minimal freeway time and I'm not so far out in... Continue Reading →
