Fun day at Wizard’s Workshop
It was fun creating creating this Steam Punk Nerf gun.
You got to ask yourself one question… Do I feel lucky… Well do ya Steam Punk?

Wow, what a great day at the track
Temps were HOT, but on the track everything was cool. I had a little hiccup after the first session as I noticed my back tire was going flat. Took the bike over to Jason at Dunlop Race Tire Services but unfortunately he didn’t have a tire to fit my aging 18 year old bike.
While I was contemplating my options of calling it a day, or making the drive to Bakersfield to pick up a new tire and try to salvage the rest of the day, Jason came through and somehow found a replacement tire for Ol’ Yeller. It was even the same make and model tire that had gone flat.
Thankfully, the rest of the day went smoothly and without any more drama and it was fun enjoying the track with good friends and family. Thank you Jason, you really saved the day!
Dave Moss had Ol’ Yeller dialed in and after a few sessions had me glued to the track. If you haven’t use his service at the track, I highly suggest spending the $40 for a full day of adjustments. Dave has incredible knowledge and won’t make you feel like an idiot when you ask him stupid questions.
I’m thinking I may have to retire Ol’ Yeller from future track days as I think maybe it’s time to bring out a more modern bike even though the Repsol is over 11 years old.
Let’s Ride Trackdays runs a great event and I’m looking forward to our next track day together.
I feel the need…
I can’t believe it’s been nearly eight months since my last track day. Can’t wait to get out there again and take some corners with some good friends.
Ol’ Yeller is ready and willing and I’m looking forward to getting the old dog back on the track.
Friendship Ride 2016
What a great day. Took another trip with an awesome group of riders this year. A bit smaller than what we are used to, but all good friends having a great time enjoying our awesome mountain roads. Wildfire smoke was at its lowest in years, traffic was smooth and flowing and the temperature was nearly perfect.
We ended the ride again this year at the Fresno Flats Historic Village and Park where we had some tasty BBQ pulled pork and chili beans.
This ride never disappoints. What a great venue for spending the day with friends and family. Looking forward to years to come, riding with friends and remembering those that have left us too soon. Thank you to all those that have stood by me all these years. I could not do this without your help, you are truly appreciated.
Until next year my friends, ride safe.

Finally got the new shoes mounted
Let the fun begin!
Gotta start somewhere…
Getting started on a little home gym.
Now, get out and ride
I can’t believe it’s been so long since I’ve taken Ol’ Yeller out for a street ride.
My tummy’s been rumbling for some sweet Kobe beef so tomorrow it’s off to one of our favorite destinations, The Diamondback Grill in Sonora, CA.
The bike has a couple track days under its belt so a bath was certainly on order.
All washed up and a quick system check has proved that this old dog is clean and running better than ever. Looking forward to spending some time with my old friend on some of our favorite roads.
Happy “New Shoes” Friday!
I think I’m addicted to shoes.
OMG, how did this happen?
Well, the day I though would never come, finally did
The Little Runt is off to its new home.
Although not the fastest, sleekest, or fanciest bike, I sure enjoyed our time together. There is much to be said about riding such a light bike. So much different than the bigger bikes I’ve grown accustom too.
This thing was such fun to ride, I will truly miss our trips together.
Some days it’s nice to just do nothing.
Relaxing at Capitola State Beach.
