    Weekend cruise with my buddy on his GS550. I got flagged down to pull over because he thought a bolt had come off my bike. Turned out I ran over a battery:


    Sam you planning on coming up for a GSR meet this year?

                      Went out for a ride this morning after breakfast but before work started for me at 1pm. Started off to be a ho-hum route with a few good sweepers but nothing to stand out until I saw this on my left. I wasn't able to stop fast enough to get a shot from the road so these will have to do:

                      On the way back to the hotel with only about 40 minutes to change clothes and get to work on time I ended up running into a long and extremely slow moving train blocking the easy way. Fortunately I noticed a road that skirted off to the right and around the tracks so I made it to work on time.

                      Can't wait for Sunday and the ride home - assuming I can leave early enough to beat the storms but we'll see as we have fallen a bit behind on the equipment replacements

                      and don't be scared, just enjoy your ride - Chris Ledoux, "The Ride"

                        Man both of those bikes (the Triumph and the Suzuki) are gorgeous - but especially the Triumph. It's a real "throwback machine". Great photography too!

                          A nice evening to take the bike out and stop by a local fishing hole.

                              Found a little spot by the water today myself. No fishin' for me, just riding by and it looked like a nice spot for a break.



                              Thought this was interesting. It's not every day I pass someone selling live bacon!



                              Just wandering around the pueblo areas along the Rio Grande.



                              One more. I had to stop when I saw these two upright goal post looking radio towers.
