Holy shit are you going? Are you going to be correcting my grammar while I am there? That would suck bad! Any chance you could check the spell check at the door?

Here in Las Cruces, it's overcast and sprinkling as I get ready to fire up the bike and head to the house. I'm heading out for BigBend Thursday, when it's sunny and bright!

Parkersburg,- hmmm isn`t that the place where a tornado destroyed the town a couple years back?
I know the feeling not having any DS buddy`s. None to be had in these parts. I love gravel roads so much I traded my street bike in for a KLR.
I used to have a DS buddy. He got himself killed by a semi truck on our way home from Montana in 2007. Now nobody wants to ride with me

Sorry about your buddy, man. That sucks.







Personally, I love that alone time in my helmet.

Keep watching the thread, you never know what will happen.


And again, sorry about your buddy.

Don't worry, I can't hear anything.

If you submit your work in writing, I'll be glad to help you out.

Hey Putts, it was nice to meet you last year in CO. I rode through Darby and over to Salmon last year when I was coming back from Canada after I finished the CDR. I thought it was an awesome and beautiful area, and I look forward to coming back. I'M IN

I'll either be on my way to or on my way back from the Canadian rockies. Or at least that's the plan at the moment. :)

See you all there. Can't wait for summer.
