Wandering Biker on a recommended blog list?

I just discovered that my blog is listed on Stacy Brock’s list of recommended motorcycle blogs. I had no idea! I am honored and now I feel even worse for writing so little this summer.
The list of blogs is here: http://bolty.net/motorcycle-links/

Wow….it’s been a while!

I didn’t realize it had been so long since I last posted. I’ve been trying to get my new business up and going and seem to have lost track of the summer.  Not only do I need to write, I also need to upgrade to the latest version of Wordpress and install security so that […]

Durango, CO to Farmington, NM to Durango, CO - 120 miles

The GF was available for a motorcycle ride today so we decided to go to Farmington, NM and get another city in my Titanic World Tour.
The sky looked kind of strange on the way out to the storage unit because of the wind and the amount of dust in the air. In fact it was […]

Comments and spam

Hi folks,
I’m afraid I’m going to have to turn off comments, at least for a while. I hate to do it as I really enjoy hearing from all of you, but the amount of spam comments I’m getting has gotten to be too much. If you are on Facebook you can find me at http://bit.ly/djjqEL or […]

Durango, CO to Ouray, CO to Durango, CO - 157 miles

I am starting a new tour called the Titanic Grand Tour. To complete this tour I have to go to at least 25 towns that end in “ton” or “burg” (or “berg”, or “burgh”).
For today’s ride I had two goals in mind. To bag my first town in the grand tour and to test out a new […]

Fort Walton Beach, FL to Hendersonville, NC - 524 miles

Well it is time to leave the beach and head up to North Carolina to stay with my friend Carrie. I’ve enjoyed my couple of days in Florida.
I head north out of Fort Walton Beach and pass by/through Eglin Air Force Base. I keep on secondary roads and US highways through southern Alabama. The roads […]

Biloxi, MS to Fort Walton Beach, FL via Panama City Beach, FL - 277 miles

I left Biloxi with Jimmy Buffet blaring on the CD player. “Brown Eyed Girl” came on and I felt sad that “the GF” was so far away back in Durango.
I crossed the bridge to Ocean Springs, MS and then on up to I-10. I stayed on I-10 to Alabama and enjoyed the beautiful view of […]

Natchitoches, LA to Biloxi, MS - 301 miles

Today was a beautiful southern Fall day. It was a little cool when I Left Natchitoches but quickly warmed up. The drive through southern Louisiana brought up some old memories and I enjoyed listening to some Randy Newman as I crossed the Mississippi on the Huey P. Long bridge.
I took I-12 around the north side […]
