Adventure me


Motorcycles

This is the first part in a three part series about ‘Road Trip: 2010’. Maybe I wasn’t ‘born to be wild’. I woke up early and got myself and my bike ready for the road last Thursday. I had emptied out my saddlebags of their usual bit (later to my dismay) and loaded them with […]

A change of pace kind of week


Motorcycles

I’m not even halfway done with the week and I know it’s been interesting. As you know, I’m planning on road-tripping to Massachusetts this weekend on my motorcycle. Much to my dismay, on Sunday I found that my carbs had frozen in a wide open position. This is bad unless I want to get to […]

The SR and the interview


Motorcycles, Peace Corps

I meant to write this post on Monday but life happens. On Sunday I went to take a look at the KZ650 SR that I was considering buying. Much appreciation goes out to Geoff for driving me there. It was a six hour round trip for him. Anyway, I saw the bike and she was […]

Nearing Spring


Motorcycles

Once again it is that time of the semester when all the work starts piling up. I have a presentation tomorrow, a paper due Thursday, another one coming up soon and finally an exam in a week or two. Don’t bother me none. The heat is still not on in our apartment. I really don’t […]
