Planning for a trip

So a couple of my motorcycle friends have nudged me towards taking a 4 day ride to and back from Montana. Very exciting, except I don't camp.

So this will be a very new experience for me. I'm a little nervous. Not about bears or wildlife, but more around cleanliness. I mean I'm not used to crapping in the woods. I'm also a twice a day shower person.

I've gone out and gotten what I've been told are the essentials. Wow, not cheap.

We leave tonight at 6pm. So I'm pretty close to being all packed.

I'll post pics and updates as I have phone access.

To track me see

This is my SPOT GPS tracking device. It won't show anything until I turn on "tracking'" mode. Then it sends out a signal every 10 minutes.

See where I'm at.

Thanks

Backfire Moto

So once a month wedged between two bars in the Seattle Ballard Neighborhood a gathering of motorcyclists get together. I believe it started with Cafe Racers but has grown into an interesting collection of off beat motorcycle; cafe racers, choppers, bobbers, race biked, Nortons, etc....

The collection of people and the comradary, drinking and bike gazing and drooling make the event a blast.

Last night was great. One of the biggest turnouts I've seen.

West Seattle's Brickyard BBQ

Ok, so a week ago there was a West Seattle fair with tons of great bands playing. Some friends and I decided to grab some grub and I took them to street that had two restaurants to choose from, one, called Porterhouse, I'd been to and is very good.

PorterHouse
2329 California Avenue Southwest
Seattle, WA 98116-2402

Across the street was a BBQ joint, called Brickyard BBQ, I had never been to but liked the fact motorcycles seemed to line the street in front. So my friends and I of course chose the BBQ. I have to tell you the food was great, the people friendly and attentive. I highly recommend it, especially when it's beautiful out and you can sit outside.

Brickyard BBQ

Riding around Whidbey Island

Two other friends and I decided to hop over to Whidbey Island 30 minutes by the Everett Ferry. The ride was a blast, twists & turns, amazing scenery and good company. Here are some pics.

Testing, testing, 1,2,3

Ok, this is lame but thought I'd try a new iPhone app that will allow me to blog more.

I'm laying in bed with a nasty cold for the 4th of July weekend instead of being on a 3 day ride with my motorcycle friends at Banks Lake, Coulee City, Wa.

I hope they're having an awesome time!

So here's to my testing.
