Yes, I suck. And not in a good way.

I know, I know, I haven't posted anything in well over a month. BAD BLOGGER. But I have a little bit of an excuse - in that month I went on an epic motorcycle road trip that covered 15 days and 6,700 miles of this nifty little country, plus another weekend ride that covered another 650 miles of Angeles National Forest. Not to mention the time it took me to sort through almost 1300 photos.

I've got lots to tell, tons of trip pics, plus all the little daily pics that get my 365 up-to-date. So sit back and enjoy the deluge, if you can handle it. I'm going to post the 365 pics first, then do a detailed post on my road trip(s).

Back home.

Odo reads 34,184 for a grand total of 6,682 miles ridden in 15 days.

Viva Lost Wages

After I left Yellowstone I was running short on time, so I boogied on down to Las Vegas to spend the night with the delightful Sheryl.

Yellowstone!

Before I even got into the park itself, I was trying to figure out when I might be able to return. I love Yellowstone so much, I cried more than a few tears of complete happiness as I rode through that amazingly magnificent place. I just don't have the words to describe how happy I am when I'm there.

I must go back. Soon.

An awesome ride.

This was somewhere in Wyoming, I believe. There's so much more to see, especially on a motorcycle, when you leave the interstate freeways and check out the back roads.

More abandoned.

I spotted this abandoned farm house near Raymond, South Dakota. This is one of my favorite pictures from the trip.

I have some other pictures from this cool place that can be seen in my Flickr feed by clicking on the photo.

Maurice.

My dad's cat. He's a good little guy; totally spoiled.

When in Rome...

Riding through Wisconsin, I had to stop for some string cheese.

Inside jokes.

"It doesn't get much gayer than a purple car fulla Jims."

BS.

Almost half the reason we gather at Mid Ohio is to get to bullshit with the assembled brain trust in person. Always a fun time with the great group of guys (and girls).
