July's Update is up!

[smoker guy]

I didn't get past the pic of Michael when I had to start laughimg. I have a co-driver(share a semi twice a week) who rambles on about motorcycling when he neither owns or even knows how to ride. He calls ADV(adventure) riders a bunch of idiots. I am a novitiate of this style of riding. I will not lie...it was Bubba, Brutus, and Michael that pointed me out in the direction of riding that I gravitate towards. He thinks that bikes are only for local travel or riding the interstates. He has even gone so far as saying that I am wasting gas and making my wife suffer for taking two vehicles on a week long vacation thru North Minnesota. I do this as 1.) I am a new rider who doesn't trust himself to a passenger on a bike, and more importantly 2.) my bike is a 650 dual-purpose, i.e. a single seater.

Where is this going...I don't know, but I want to thank Bubba, Brutus, and Michael for showing me the style of riding I wa looking for.
