      Finding this old T500 cheap and in good shape was like winning the lottery. Fixed it up a little, rode it a bit and sold it to someone who could take better care of it than I would. Probably a once in a lifetime thing for me.

      I really miss this classic.

        There are now two people that are missed when I look at this pic - not seen is my father. This was the first ride in his memory that we took about a year after he passed in 2002. On the left is my uncle - dad's brother. About 10 years after this was taken he lost his life due to injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident. He put about 80k miles on that Triumph Legend in the pic before a careless, dangerous, driver on the revoked list did him in.


        Pic is not crooked, the ground was at this spot.

          Came up empty this week. My dad (rest his soul) was the family photog, but I’ve found no photos of me and bikes with the guy who taught me so much, including how to ride and wrench on my first motorcycle when I was 12, a 1972 Yamaha DT 250. But I’ll never forget our rides together. Also rode ATV and dirt bikes with lots of friends in my teens. Sadly, no pictures. Just great memories. Today, I’m a lone wolf. I’ve never ridden in a group or with another person on the street outside of the MSF course.

                        He rode a Ural to the Arctic circle Norm. One Helluva ride!

                        2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

                        Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                          yes you are correct on all counts. My vote goes to dork burger This week. There are many riding friends that I have missed over the last couple years from this site as well. Will be posting his journey again in Jan.

                                Eli 69 for me. I absolutely love that bike, and know the feeling of sellers regret. I enjoyed the pics of it he posted when he owned it. Nice pic too.
