Way back when



Here are some pictures of back when motorcycling for me was new. Shell and I didn't have good supplies. We slept in a cheap tent that was too small and leaked with maybe one sleeping bag, a cheap blanket and never had a pad inbetween us and the ground. I didn't even own a leather jacket. We didn't have chaps or full faced helmets. No hand warmers, windsheilds, floor boards or big plush ride. We had open face helmets and a little 750 V-twin Honda. I had just got a set of throw-over saddle bags (wish I still had them) Sure we would have loved all of that comfort stuff, not being sore after a ride, staying warm and having some peace and quiet behind a whindsheild, maybe cruising to some tunes and never really feeling uncomfortable would have made the ride more enjoyable but... I have noticed that when I got those comforting things I still enjoyed the ride but it wasn't the same. I didn't remember how cold it was or even what the weather was like. It dulled the memories of the trips a little. Sometimes, when the trip is challenging and sometimes even painful it made for a better adventure. The tough rides are what I love to look back on.

I need to ride
It has been so long now. I took a short cruse on Tim's Honda CB400 and that was a blast but I am really itching to get on the road. It's going to be a long winter. Hopefully just long enough to get my bike together for next year.

CB750 motor
Well, I have been cleaning... Nothing fancy and barely worth writing about. But it has been interesting going over this motor. I have found a lot of pieces that have intrigued me. Pretty cool how the oil pan has a load of extra fins for cooling. Something about old, air cooled motors that just have so much personality.

The Tin Sieve

Everytime I go there I end up drunk as a skunk. I swear I can't go there and just chillout. It's always party time at the Tin Sieve! That must be why I like going there so much...
This week it was 40 or so rounds down range. Many-ah beer cans lost there lives that day. Pabst with a few Cheladas and to top off the night I had a couple really cheap whiskey and cokes. Uggg 5 AM came really quick the next day.
I call this image "Six pack'O Cat" That's Tims new cat. She was actually a very good cat and for all you cat lovers out there, I removed the plastic right after the pic.
