Days 4 to 8 – AMA Women and Motorcycling Conference…I made it!!
Redstone to Keystone could have been reached by any number of roadways, but I chose to take Independence Pass, a road that was highly praised by several riders. I chose Hwy 82 to Hwy 24 to Hwy 91 to Hwy 70 getting off on Hwy 6 to Keystone. So, once again I packed up my…

Day 3–Moab, UT to Redstone, CO
Since I have a moment…I thought I’d throw up a few more pix! Since I arrived in Keystone and the AMA Women and Motorcycling Conference, it has been a whirlwind of events. Between seminars, test rides, walking in this gorgeous country that winds the heck out of anyone not used to 10K elevations, and meeting…

Day 2–Ely, NV to Moab, UT
The morning came early or maybe I should say the night never ended. Down the hall in the Hotel Ely, a vintage hotel casino, a lively all night party brewed and by 2 am I’d had quite enough. Rather than yell out the door as others had done and been ignored, I put on earplugs.…

The CO journey begins! Sacramento, CA to Ely, NV
Had the bike packed and was on the road by 9am. For those of you that know me, this is a serious feat considering I didn’t make my usual 5 trips back into the house for forgotten items! It’s amazing when a plan comes together. The one thing I didn’t plan was how chilly it…

AMA International Women and Motorcycling Conference–Keystone, CO
Well, it looks as though I will be attending the conference. Now, I have only to route an amazing ride to get there and home. There are soooo many great roads in CO that I can’t believe how difficult the task is becoming. I did find this wonderful resource of CO Motorcycle Roads, which is…

Donna and Gary’s Oregon tour!
After a fairly late start leaving Sacramento, we finally got to Burns OR after staying within the speed limit riding the back roads north bound out of Susanville. We couldn’t have had better weather or roads riding Hwy 139 to 299 to 395 but we did see at least 8 CHP on the combination of…

Coming Home…
My injured friend Tyler is coming back to CA tomorrow, pictured here with her sister Cyn. This is the beginning of some extensive treatments to repair the crushed skin on her legs from being run over by a tractor trailer. She is a miracle girl proving the power from positive healing energy of the masses…
