    2011 Steve's Ride

    What was going to be an epic ride, turned into another memorial ride for one of my best and closest friends, Steve Wild (Scruff Dog). Sad, as I just did one last year for our mutual friend Merlin.

    It's going to be about a 1,750 mile loop thru UT and CO, thru some of the roads I did last year, and a few new ones.

    Godspeed Steve-O, love ya brother, and this one's for you!

    Got my new Metzler M5's mounted and on the bike Wed night (when I heard the news about Steve-O), and she's got fresh oil and filter, lubed and tightened chain, and is all ready to roll this afternoon.

    This one's for you Steve-O!

    Have a safe ride out there. "Try" not to reminisce too much while on two wheels.

    Yeah, I hear ya, thanks! I'm gonna get me a little bottle of Beam, and do a shot for him, and pour a shot for him onto old Mother Earth like I did last year for Merlin on video. I'm sure he'll smile and appreciate it.

    Thanks! Tell that to all the crazies out there this weekend though! Luckily, the roads I'll be riding are remote and very lightly traveled.......

    Just got in a little while ago, sitting here with a bourbon on the rocks, heading to the 24-hr hot tub. AWESOME ride today, got about 1,000 miles in so far. REALLY like those new M5's......

    Tried to post pics, but the ForniClient security here is hosing me up. Drat!

    Got some AMAZING shots (and some fine bourbon too....), I'll try and find another way to post 'em. Might have to over a friends house and post 'em from there.
