Winding down the riding season somewhat. I guess I won’t get those epic rides for awhile but at least I have what’s left of the cool fall days to enjoy. I think some heated gear is in order as I would rather ride year round. Last Friday was another Palouse Falls loop […]

Changing things around a bit. Looking for a better theme and I think I’ve found one. Bear with me as I move things around. If you think anything is just totally ugly, leave a comment.

You knew it… that title had to come… It’s just too easy.

So yesterday Governor Gregiore approved the dreaded windmill project in Kittitas. I was riding through that area not long ago and stopped in the driveway of the project HQ on the old highway. Dropped my motorcycle helmet on the gravel. A […]
