Hello from...
This week I'm in Mexico!
I saw a couple of uncommon, for the area, bikes at my hotel tonight. Pretty cool to pull up and see something that's not a China bike. (At least China branded!)

Last week I ride the bike for work, around 800 paid miles.
I was in western Indiana for a night, and north east Ohio for 2 nights. I got to ride part of the Yellowstone trail, and the old Lincoln highway I picked special parking spots

The week prior to that, I was in Italy. We saw some old stuff! I didn't have a bike. Or a car. I had a van, in Rome, that was stupid.
I also rode about 700 miles, up to Mackinaw city, on my 1.5 days home so I could visit with my son for a night.

It's becoming much less fun at the moment, I would just like to be home for a while. I have a 4 day weekend this weekend. And maybe a nice local week for work. Maybe. Lol

Working at Lordstown GM plant, stayed in Youngstown.
I think I have another trip to England coming up soon, other than that, work should be slowing down a bit. It needs to. I am just plain old exhausted.

Hi from "The Back of the Dragon"!
Parts of 16 in WV seem to have a fine layer of coal dust.after riding in the fig, my nice white jacket had a layer of coal. It was a bit slick but nothing proper control didn't take care of, since we remembered it from last time.

Hah, I travel a lot for work, mostly automotive, FCA and GM are global and we are expanding to be their sole supplier for machine vision.
I have put 6500 miles on the Tenere since July, I've been using it almost exclusively for my trips less than 5 hours drive. Home this week! I just needed a trip!

Hello from Chester, Cheshire, England!
We walked the wall around the Roman city, I found a Ferrari, and had a toad in the hole for dinner.

Today I went to the Delta Sky Club in Detroit, then the bar in Monterrey Mexico, and I'm sitting in Chili's in Guadalajara. I'm waiting for my plane to Toluca.

At some point around mid-day, I moved from my bed to the couch. A few hours later, made it to my computer chair. Still there.

It's not something I would have done if it was just us. My buddy got married though, so we had to go!
I really couldn't stand the view from this bar....

You know I did! 4.5 months after shoulder surgery too! That large red scar on my right shoulder still makes me cringe to know that I jumped off that. My wife said I was a complete dumba**, I tend to agree with her from time to time.
Took this plunge too... Hedonism II Not for the faint of heart!!!!!

After jumping at Rick's we were told it was 30', and in doing some research, (after the fact), found that many get seriously hurt by not hitting the water just right. Glad to say my son and his wife and myself were not hurt.
sorry about the thread jack |

true! I saw blood on the steps when I finally got out of the water. Somebody had a bad day.... It is my understanding that this jump has ended many vacations. :\
