Riding the World…2013 A year of contrasts and loss


A ponderous year, 2013, full of poignant moments, sadness and bliss. I lost some wonderful friends this past year as well as my father, all of which broke my heart bit by bit. Thank the stars for the gift of travel and the renewal I receive from the journey.

Gladly, I move into the new year , seeking fresh experience, visiting old friends and making new ones. My passion for motorcycle travel has given me more than I can ever repay, in friendship and awakenings. Not a day goes by that I don’t give thanks for a healthy body, and a desire to be more than just an observer of life.

I am often asked, “how long do you intend to ride motorbikes?”. To that I say, “as long as I am able”. Here’s to the end of 2013 and the start of 2014!!

And RIP my lost family and friends. You will always be fondly remembered and your tales will continue!
JB Williams, my father
William “Bill” Robinson, Best riding mate, ever
Syd “FishWitch” Sheppard, Long time friend and fellow girly rider
Casey Mulgrew, High school and life long pal
Linda Richardson, Studio partner and long time friend
