It's a beautiful world...get out there and see it, especially if you can do it on two wheels. https://www.youtube.com/@meanderingmiles
Rode the Back of the Dragon the other day. Route 16 from Tazewell to Marion Virginia. It’s a beautiful ride. Just got and downloaded my pic from the website.

Ok. This isn’t funny.

I think heated riding gear is going on my holiday list.

What to ride after the Blue Ridge Parkway? Why Skyline Drive, of course.

This morning’s weather is a bit different.

Yesterday I rode the entire (well there were 2 detours) VA portion of the Blue Ridge Parkway in glorious 70 degree weather. It was a long day but beautiful.

The endless sky over southern Alberta was one of the amazing things I got to see on My Grand Detour.

Join me on Wed, September 3rd at 7pm ET for my first LIVE event.

Ask me anything about my 112 day, 18,225 mile solo motorcycle trip across the US and Canada.

Well. That's embarrassing...fixed below.

226 curves, breathtaking views, no traffic, and a baby bear!

On June 17, I rode The Dragon Slayer—KY-160 from Appalachia, VA to Lynch, KY. I took it slow, soaked in the scenery.

30 minutes of real-time riding. No narration. No music. Just the ride.

This was my ride a couple weeks ago--close to that exact spot. I really loved the Trail of the Lonesome Pine...nice sweeping turns, and almost no traffic. A really fun, relaxing ride before the Dragon Slayer.

Day 6 is starting out with...but...it's only ≈50 miles to the rally.

So...I'll sit here and have another cup of coffee before I head out.

Day 5 was ≈220 miles. Harlan KY to Cookeville TN.

KY-987 is a pretty ride to the Cumberland Gap National Historical Park. Into TN and highway tag with other BMWs who were (probably) on their way to the rally as well.

45mins to the @bmwmoa.bsky.social rally tomorrow.

Day 4 was 202 miles from Beckley WV to Harlan KY.

The Trail of the Lonesome Pine Road was beautiful, and I road the famous Dragon Slayer, RT-160 from Appalachia, VA to Lynch, KY.

And, saw this little cub.

Another ≈200 Miles today...in the rain.

WV has beautiful, twisty roads. I wish I could have actually seen them...through the rain.

Rode The Talon...in the rain.

Saw New River Gorge...in the rain

Day 2 of my Ride to the @bmwmoa.bsky.social #motorcycle Rally is in the books--from Hagerstown, MD to Elkins, WV. Not all the miles I wanted, but 251 is respectable.

I stuck to highways, because it rained most of the day.

A new playlist: Miles in Silence

No background music. No narration.

Just amazing views and the sounds of the engine, wind, and a world rolling by.

I was riding from Calgary to Waterton Lakes in Canada. There's pretty much nothing between the two.

I remember thinking, "there's just so much sky."

Big? Massive? Immense? Sometimes, there just aren't words.

I support all who ride, whatever you ride, wherever you ride.

To be honest, I support you even if you don't ride.

(Don't you love how AI always puts the bike on the left side of the road? I don't support riding on that side of the road in the US. Be safe out there.)
