  • 2015 BIG MONEY RALLY!! A new reason to ride!!

    It’s been a relatively quiet year for me this year. Not particularly for any reason or maybe for a thousand reasons, but my bike has seen more garage time this year than ever before and it breaks my heart. I am such an enthusiast, a traveler, an explorer, a visitor and not least of all,…

  • Highlights of the Big Money Rally 2014 or Quirky America!!

    Well, after all it was my first rally, but I finished it and even got into the Bronze catagory, so I’m feeling pretty good about it. I await my swag. 😉 I wanted to share the highlights of this rally. In pursuit of points, I discovered things I didn’t even know were there and areas…

  • YEA….it’s a NEW YEAR! Hooray for 2014

    Well, I’m thrilled to have begun a new year and hope that this season brings more riding than last season, but time will tell. I did decide to take on the Big Money Rally, which will actually be my very first rally. This is no easy rally being it’s set for winter riding with some…
