This photo? In California. Roughly inland from Big Sur, this section of coast is famous for it's morning fog. Down below, it would have been chilly. Up here, perfect.

I love watching my partner Birgit meander along on roads like this. Lots of smiles.
Where? Pyrenees.

A surprise behind the Airbnb, a quiet forest path.
Out front, a long driveway connecting to the curvy roads ahead.
The perfect place to start and end the late Fall adventure rides around the Green Mountains of Southern Vermont.

Random #motophoto time. Riano in Spain. It's one of those countries that's full of surprises and that lake has quite a story.

Life should have as many smiles as possible, shouldn't it π
I saw this shop when Birgit and I were in Germany a month or so ago. I just could not resist a little modification! π
True for a week!

The Bardenas Reales in Spain. A fun set of gravel tracks to ride, and beautiful scenery. Especially in the low down, end of day light like this.
If you are planning a ride in Spain this summer, see if you can fit this place in.

1998 Northern Colombia. This fuzzy photo makes me grin because I was trying to take a pic of Birgit and our bikes when these guys rode into the shot, and made it! These cycle taxis were common. Cheap and practical.

I posted earlier that I don't feel much like being at my desk today.
There has been a silver lining. I found a folder of photos on an old hard drive. A bit of mental escaping from my desk π
This is from Arequipa in #Peru. Only place I've been where shop mannequins are up for a #laugh π€ͺ
#mototravel
It's a simple thought. I really don't want to be at my desk today. Do you get those days? I would like to be away riding somewhere like this again!
I'm telling myself to be patient π

Nice road. It's in Norway but other than being in the SW don't ask me where exactly it was. There are so many little roads like this, which out of season have almost no traffic at all. Proper meandering π
#motosky #motorcycle #norway #mototravel #motorcycles
Backroads Corsica. We'd taken a turn down this gravel travel because it was there, we had plenty of time and of course, we were on bikes.
No traffic. Just birds of prey wheeling above us and cactus loaded heavily with almost ready to eat fruit.

A town where people use art for art's sake, and to protest. Orgosolo in Sardinia. We spent a day there on a trip a while back, but could have easily spent 2 days. Fascinating place.

Random #motophoto time. It's on the chilly side here today so I've been mentally warming myself up by looking at hot motorcycle pictures π
This one's from Death Valley. Yep, I feel warmer now!

I snapped this shot of Birgit when riding backroads through Portugal.
That's her 1984 R80ST. I grinned when she said, after finding that the brakes on her '72 BMW R60/5 were struggling with the pace of traffic in the UK, that she'd like a 'new' bike.
1984 π

These two pictures just popped up as a memory. 2023 and riding through the Badlands in South Dakota. 10' away was the closest I'd been to these fascinating beasts.
They had an interesting earthy but very slightly sour scent. For some reason I'd not expected that.

It was a privilege to work with the authors who made this collection of tales from across Asia happen.
I think it's a fantastic book, but don't take it from me. Take a look at the link to see what the reviewers think.
