Lois on the Loose…IRAN VIDEO
Lois is brilliant, irreverent, hilarious and a wonderful all around talented woman. I can’t say enough good, but I’d like to share to little look at her, and you can be the judge. I’d give just about anything to be able to join her on a ride!! If you haven’t already, do yourself a favor…

Big Money Rally continues across NM into AZ and UT
The next chapter! I actually slept in a bit and didn’t get up until nearly 8am. The wind was already blowing, although without nearly the power that would come later in the day. I geared and packed up and headed to my friend’s home 30 miles east of Albuquerque but stopped on the way to…

The Big Money Rally continues…
I’ve been visiting friends. The first was a moto-pal in Edgewood 30 miles east of Albuquerque, and now I’m in Truth or Consequences with some wonderful pals from my days of living in Alaska.

The Big Money Rally and a reason for a winter ride!
Well, we don’t have much winter in CA. In fact this year we have had almost none, so trying to create a “reason” to ride is like trying a new wine or a new meal, I mean why not?? As I read about the Big Money Rally, I was keen to give it a go,…

REPOST: Bike and Babes: The Female Rider…who is she and why does she ride a motorcycle?
photo credit/chickthatrides What is the quintessential female rider? In fact how do we define women riders in general? Who are those women that decide to reject standard female roles for a less common practice. Are they adventurers, enlightened or just plain mad? The population of female riders is expanding and with that expansion, come women…

Lois Pryce–Adventuresse!
What a delight to have found this interview of Lois Pryce to follow up my last posting. Lois was able to sum up the attributes of a motorcycle adventure aptly having gained her writing skills as a by-product of her adventure. I love that she personifies her “matter of fact attitude” and is able to…
