Earache

Thought my bike was gonna get knocked over today....

Getting my drone out and going to the local football field to learn how to fly the damned thing. Had it for 2 years and have yet to fly it. I'll either have some cool video or a lightly used drone for sale by tomorrow night...

Same peak as in your picture??

It's a cool area to ride, too. Not too many others around ...

Stops faster that way and saves wear on the pads.

Weather has been great here lately, really odd that it's this warm at this time. Got out on the scooter and snapped a few pics of the local area. Not really worthy of a Ride Report though so here they are ....

Had a set of Fox Air Shox on my RM back in the day. They were the hot set up at the time.

Been to Scotland 4-5 times and got rained on each and every time. Wish they could sort that out But it is some great riding though!

That's the big city compared to our town! Looks nice though!

Man, what a day my buddy had today. First, his wife goes to lunch at work and some illegal immigrant with no insurance barrels into the restaurant and damn near kills her. Meanwhile, he's out in his car and some douche clips the front of his car at an intersection. He should go home and get in bed....

Street in front of our house is in full color now...

Cottonwood Pass and the driveway this weekend - looks like winter is upon us.....

Yes - have done the professional Ironman race in Boulder for the past 3 years. On those, I have a professional referee on the bike with me as pillion. He does all of the yelling at people and I just ride the bike to his instructions. edit: here are some of the Super Tenere's they used at Ironman - built for TV camera guys to move around on. I didn't take a lot of pics at Ironman as I didn't really have the time - too busy being told what to do <gg>.

After the Monument, we slogged 250 miles on the highway to get home. Tired and cold, it's good to be home. Next weekend is the year's last Moto Mrashal gig - the Denver Century Ride.

The Monument never disappoints ...

Up at the crack of 9:00 AM the next day, (waiting on warmth again), and off to the coffee shop for all of the others while I watch the bikes in he parking lot. Then onto a speed alp of the Colorado National Monument ...

It's a classy joint though - as evidenced by the art work in the Men's room...

Hit the local English / Irish Pub for dinner. Beers were good (Smithwick's) but the shepard's pie was lacking. Who the Hell puts tortilla chips on top of shepard's pie???

After the race , we had 60 miles to ride to the night's hotel in Grand Junction. The heavens opened up on us with a cold shower. But made it to the rooms - with a bunch of Porsche guys parked out our window....

End of the race buffet was pretty good - all sorts of good food ...

Fellow Marshals Chris and Jared taking a break...........

I just love riding in the desert ...

75 miles into the ride and we're in the high desert. All was going well when this guy's front wheel got tangled into the back wheel of the bike ahead of him. Apparently Lycra doesn't do shit for avoiding road rash . I radio'd for an ambulance and my bud Chris set the bikes up as a traffic barrier ...

Dunno why anyone would wanna ride up a mountain ,,,

6:45 and the riders appear....
