    Man I love the look on people's faces when they see a motorcycle ride down the road when there's still a foot a half of snow in there front yard!
    Been to work twice this week on the old Maxim.

    I subscribe to Motorcycle Mojo Magazine (MotorcycleMojo.com), they have alot of travel features. They have had articles recently about Utah, Arizona, Southwest US. Once the kids are old enough, I gota get time to head down, looks amazing over there.

    There are a lot of places to ride around here. I have driven all over the place in the cage but not on the bike yet. Just joined a riding group that has rides scheduled for all over the western states.

    In a few years (when my younges two are old enogh) I planed on a ride up through Canada to Alaska My brouther just moved up there. I'm looking forward to that trip.

    They really look at you funny when your racing a snowmobile riding in the ditch along side you. Been there - done that.
