Ok, so I finally got this blog started. It has been too long coming to be honest but for some reason Blogger seemed hard. Don't ask me why, just accept that I am getting older.
I was really inspired due to the major upcoming adventure we plan to take later this summer. But then when I got to thinking about it even more I realized how much I rely on other blogs and sites to help me make decisions on accessories, trips or just for enjoyment. In short, I was becoming an internet leach. Sucking all I could from the net but contributing nothing. Now I will contribute. It will be up to you to judge the contribution.
First, some introductions. My wife (Rhonda) and I live in NC with a couple wonderful kids (16 and 18) and a great dog (Xander). We have a lot of hobbies, but the one we will dedicate this blog to will be our love of motorcycling. Well, I should say that I love motorcycling. I am not 100% convinced that my wife does, but I will soon find out! We currently ride a 2009 Harley Davidson Road King Classic. Nearly 18K miles on it in less than 2 years means we have vastly exceeded the average mileage for a HD owner (which I read somewhere is 1500 miles/yr).
This blog will let you experience (without the massive pain in the backside) the trip the wife and I have planned in August to Sturgis, SD for Bike Week. And yes, we are riding not trailering. See what I mean when I say I will find out for sure if my wife loves motorcycling soon? On the road I will update the blog as often as I have a free hand and cell coverage/wifi.
But between now and then I will start putting some reviews/opinions together on some trips we have taken and the various gear we use on our trips. Like everything else, motorcycling is a conduit for my other true passion: gadgets! So I love to experiment using technology on a bike trip.
I really hope you enjoy reading this. If at anytime you have questions or want some more info, just let me know.
Enough of this... Let's get to it!
Chris
