Colorado Trip - 2018
Colorado Trip – 2018
Last year I had the pleasure of taking a trip to Colorado. At the time I was in between motorcycles and had to sort that out quick. So I dived into Craigslist to find my next steed. This was going to be a summer trip that I needed to carry camping gear so I needed a rig that can carry the extra weight and still be fun to ride. Since I’m a creature of habit, I was looking for something familiar.…

Quick Trip to Big Bend
Quick Trip to Big Bend
I was reading though some email one evening when a VFR forum post called “AM in Arkansas” caught my eye. This lucky Kansas rider was taking a solo trip to the Ozarks on their trusty Honda VFR800. A machine I am quite familiar with. :) This strangely made me a little jealous. My yearly long trip with my band of misfits “my riding buddies” never really manifested. With the end of the year…

Harvest Classic Motorcycle Rally - 2016
Harvest Classic Motorcycle Rally – 2016
Missed last years even due to rain but heard it was one that was attended by many and have stories to tell for a long time to come. This motorcycle rally isn’t the norm. Focusing on classic and vintage European motorcycles of all kind. Let’s say the Harley crowd is kept to a minimum and easy to spot. The rally serves two purposes: a wonderful together for all motor-heads that love vintage…

Finally an Italiana.
I’ve always wanted either an Aprilia Futura or a Ducati ST. But the typical maintenance horror stories you hear from some have kept me away from them. I finally bit the bullet and got me a “Duc”. A 2006 Ducati ST3 came home with me late Aug 2016. Not the ST3″S” model, but this one was upgraded with an Öhlins racing rear shock and upgraded front fork springs. She is a sexy beast. The…

And then there was Buellah.
2007 Buell XB12X UlyssesStarted my search for an “Adventure” style motorcycle that didn’t mind a little dirt every once in a while. But I wanted something that had some personality. Originally fell in love with another ugly duckling, 2005 Ducati Multistrada. But the parts availability and the general uncertainty of the Ducati scared me off this time. The Buell Ulysses was on the bucket list…

MotoGP at COTA -2016
MotoGP at COTA -2016
Since the opening of the track in Elroy, Texas (Suburb of Austin, TX). My self and a few of my good friends have been coming to support motorcycle racing at it’s best. I consider myself lucky to have such a wonderful venue so close to my home in San Antonio, TX that we can just ride up to COTA (The Circuit of the Americas) to partake. My good buddy Javier was chosen to be a track marshal.…

"Eleanor"
“Eleanor”
Taken from the movie “Gone in 60 Seconds” to describe the automobile the lead actor longed for. I’ve owned a couple of 6th Generation VFRs but have been told the best version was the 5th gen with its gear driven cams and no VTEC. More to come later.

Consuelo is gone, the itch is back.
The time came to sell my 2009 Kaeasaki Concours 14. She was a fun and reliable steed. But once again I long for something different for this new riding season. Disfruta Diego!

MotoGP Viewing Party at COTA
MotoGP Viewing Party at COTA
To celebrate the return of a new season of MotoGP, The Circuit of the Americas (COTA) hosted a viewing party of the 1st race from Qatar. The sponsors RideSmart and Woods Fun Center gave out door prizes and raffled out goodies. COTA graced us with a parade lap! Thanks to the powers that made this happen. I hope they do this again in the near future. Can’t wait to return for the big show in…

Pre-Owned off season gear shopping
It’s summer in Texas and the temps are in the triple digits and humidity +50%. Most of my riding is on hold until the weather gets a little cooler. During this off time I start to “troll” through Craigslist and eBay for riding gear. Trolling is simply the act of enthusiastic searching. Shopping can be very fruitful when looking for off season riding gear. I do my gear hunting in a variety of…

Winter Riding in Central Texas
Winter Riding in Central Texas
The mild winters in central Texas comes with its trickery. One part of the day will give you a sunny clear weather with manageable temps. Next will have trechorous rain, wind and sleet. With that in mind, I have learned to always dress for the worst of it and peel off the layers as needed.
The market gives a rider many winter riding options. From one piece riding suits to two piece jobbers.…

Prescription Eyewear and Helmets
Riding motorcycles for a person that is near sighted leaves us with a few of options. Either wear contact lenses, wear glasses or have a procedure to correct your vision like LASIK. I’ve been wearing glasses ever since elementary (primary school). So I’ve grown accustomed to them and they have, in someway, become part of my personality. I tried the contact lens route but was troubled with the…

Break Downs / Roadside Assistance
Break Downs / Roadside Assistance
Breaking down/being stuck on the side of the road is a reality we all face in our cars and motorcycles at one point or another. If you have yet to experience it, consider yourself lucky. I’ve had a couple a flats on long road trips and they were eye opening experiences on what you need to prepare yourself for such a day.
My most memorable disablement was a flat involving one of the tubed tires…

Moto Vlogging is Hard!
Moto Vlogging is Hard!
I’ve been following a few motorcycle video bloggers on YouTube for quite some time now. Have yet to muster up the balls to start one until recently. I took a ride a few weekends ago and recorded about 30 minutes of footage. My limitations lie on my equipment. I have a 3rd gen GoPro Hero HD (no ext mic option). So I’ve been trying to stitch together the video/audio for a few days now. Loosing more…
