Motorcycle Monday: European Honeymoon on a Harley – Day 3
Here we find McGyver and myself on our way to Barcelona Spain, ready to see the Harley Davidson’s 100th Anniversary shindig in Europe. Not only is it our honeymoon but it’s a chance to experience history, and for us Americans, it’s even more special to celebrate an iconic American tradition in Spain. This is also […]
Motorcycle Monday: European Honeymoon on a Harley: Day 2
The second day of the ‘official’ honeymoon starts in Burgundy France, at a little chateau nestled in some vineyards. By now we have traveled from Germany through Luxembourg, Belgium and ending in France.

Motorcycle Monday: European Honeymoon

We did 13 countries in 10 days on a […]

Once upon a time, back before Evo engines with Electronic Fuel Ignition, motorcycles came with a CARBURETOR, which was a device for mixing a fuel/air ratio to ensure a proper ignition […]
Motorcycle Monday: Biker gear
Here’s some girl gear to add to your shopping list. Draggin Jeans what’s so great about these?

Motorcycle Monday: My First Solo Ride
I successfully completed the Motorcycle Safety Foundations Beginner’s Riders course and got my endorsement on my license. You can read about that here. Call me brave, call me stupid, mostly call me ignorant. McGyver was still living in Germany, I had bought and moved into our new house in Shiloh, Illinois. Most of the household […]
Motorcycle Monday: Why I decided to ride my own
(Picture from Google Images) I’m going to take you back a few decades. My first introduction to a motorcycle came from my dad. Back in the mid 70’s, my dad had purchased a BMW and put a side car on it. I believe that is how he justified it as a family vehicle to my […]
