Winding Road Ahead




Taking off for a few days of R&R (rubber and RPM's). Leaving tomorrow with a friend to do some serious motorcycling in the Ozarks and further parts unknown.

There is something about motorcycling that is different than traveling by any other vehicle. The inherent freedom of only two wheels, one rider is liberating alone. But then add in, not knowing where you are going to ride, where you'll sleep or where or what you'll eat and you have the formula for great fun, thrilling adventure and general all round relaxation. Riding this way in a visually amazing part of the world must be one of the great frontiers still available to 21st century man. 24 hours and counting down...

The "twistier" the road the better, with hopes of something good to eat and a hot shower at the other end of each day is calling my name. "Marco Polo and friend" with tales of adventure shall return. This always promises to be fun...

Ahhh... R&R on two wheels. For me, it personally doesn't get much better than this!

Your prayers are always appreciated.

Some time you should vacation in Arizona and ride the scenic route from Sedona to Flagstaff. It is choice.


I'm new at HOCC. I'm that fella in the cowboy hat. Come visit me at Big White Hat.

BWH,

I happen to be very familiar with that road and if one looked close enough, tire marks may still remain.

Great views, beautiful country.

Christopher,
Sounds like an awesome vacation. Enjoy the winding open road. Come by our town some time to take a ride through the Rockies.
