No, I didn't hike up this time. I went up the easy way. This Triumph Motorcycle climbed Mount Washington! Rocket 3 Triumph with a view I had a nice fall Saturday all to myself. Headed up to the lake house to get a few things done. Since the girls were not showing up until that evening, I grabbed the motorcycle, stuck on my GPS and headed up to Mount Washington. I have always wanted to climb the auto road via motorcycle. Attempted it many years back but we the group of us showed up at the base, the attendants had to inform us that they closed down the road to motorcycles due to the high winds. I wish I knew…

Tonight was the last night for the Wednesday Motorcycle meet up in Milford New Hampshire. And what an absolutely perfect night it ended up being!

This year I participated in the DGR ride. It's a ride to promote men's health - prostate cancer awareness, suicide prevention, etc. Not only is it a good cause, but it's one where we get to ride on "vintage style" or vintage motorcycles.

Heading to Milford, NH where we met up at the Union Coffee Co. They had a big part in putting this together and I've very thankful for them doing this. Roughly 40+ people showed up on everything from 1938 Indian motorcycles,…

It's the time of year again: Time for Laconia Bike Week! A group of 5 of us, that turned into just 3 since this was a mid-work week get-a-way, got together so we could go over to Gunstock and see the hill climb. I pulled out my trusty (ok, far from trusty, but completely rebuilt) T120R - 1968 Triumph Bonneville. Not the best bike for long tours, but this was the right distance for this bike. Far enough to stretch her legs, but not so far that I couldn't get it back simply enough if it all went wrong. The first thing we did was go down to the Weirs Beach strip just to take a quick…
