Unless it is pouring with thunder and lightning I have a real problem taking the bike out of the garage in those conditions. Of course that said I have done it. I can't help it, I just love to ride, even if it is just to work. 4 wheels move the body, 2 wheels move the soul.

There are two roads in life; the twisty one is vastly more fun.
This was one of those rides when I bit off more than I can chew. On the map I thought I found a back road alternative to my destination. I began to wonder about the wisdom of taking this route when the road turned from light gravel to gravel/dirt to dirt.
The road narrowed to driveway width, forked and of course I went the wrong way. I came across a hunting cabin and met a hunter. He and his daughter were just finishing up bow hunting for bear and he kindly got me back on track. Some how Red and I stayed upright down a hill and crossed this creek on a shaky bridge.
Somehow climbed a heavily rutted, leaf strewn road uphill to a ridge. No way could I stop and take a picture. Too slippery and footing was bad. Having crested the the ridge the road, widened, flattened out and became a bit more civilized.
I know this is small stuff for GS riders, but it was a tense experience for one without those skills. I now have a much better appreciation for what the GS folks ride through. Looking back on it now I can smile, but I was sweating it out when I was "fully engaged".

She is setting up for the right hander coming up, or
She is not at all comfortable about the ride she is on.

Our friend, Kurt Asplindh, took this photo of my wife & I riding in the Valley of Fire state park, NV. It is a keeper! Kurt works for the BMW motorcyles of Las Vegas.
