This blog has a big fat disclaimer to start off with…there’s 8000 years of ancient Indian history about yoga. I don’t know anything about that stuff, and I’ve hit my head too many times. Holiday blues got you down? I’ve had them since the Fourth of...

Somebody at the brain injury awareness group asked “What kind of helmet do you wear snowboarding?” The only time I wear a lid snowboarding is when it was required for racing boardercross. My unprotected head sank into my hands. Here it comes…” I...

To blow off steam or control stress, I always try moving forward. Not the self-help tomorrow is going to be better than today, but head into the wind while moving fast. Play is where its at! Big Wheels, bicycles, dirt bikes, skateboards, any toy or vehicle that...

The Safety Third Compound is in the HIGH country of Colorado. Any direction on the bike spoils me. Ripping through the mountains fast and loud is as much a part of Wind Therapy as meditating at the top of the Continental Divide. Turn left and an hour over those...

I’m looking forward to passing on the need for helmets and a healthy lifestyle to my brothers and sisters attending the 80th Annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. I plan on eating well or at least safely. I don’t think trucks of kale will be receiving police escorts...

Day 2 The Sacral Chakra Laying low in a parking lot with a couple dozen others seeking shelter from the storm. We are behind a Union Pacific train car getting respite from the passing thunderstorms. It got sideways here fast. In the scramble a couple bikes hit the...

DAY III The Solar Plexus Chakra Three weeks ago, I spelled Chakra wrong. 5 months ago, I couldn’t walk up a hill without getting winded. Now I’m running further than I have in my life. My buddies are asking what I’m running from. Today I’m running from my...

The Heart Chakra Waking up at Devils Tower this morning and the moon is still hanging out as the sun lights up some fast-moving clouds. This sky and spectacular monument fill the heart with love, compassion and gratitude for the universe. I got out here early to beat...

The peak of the Perseid meteor shower is goin off while I’m packing the bike. Frequent enough to see tracers reflecting in the chrome after giving the bike a wash yesterday. It’s always darkest before the dawn and the best time to stargaze. It’s going to be hot...

Wandering around Main Street I did catch the scent of sage and incense. Behind the hotdog stand sits the “Sturgis Serenity Building” and The Giving Goat Crystal Shop. Sturgis’s version of a wellness center complete with weekly AA meetings, Taoism, Buddhism, crystals...

Misspelling sacred for scared can significantly change the meaning of a story. When your riding and writing from a motorcycle you won’t catch it for a few hundred miles or when you stop for a long rest. Being on the bike takes total focus and awareness,...

I’ve been cooking since I was a child and working in restaurants into adulthood. I’ve worked with plenty of chefs. Trained quite a few. Drank with all of them and solved the World’s problems with some late nights. We kitchen types are all smiles when you...

Most of the motorcycles I’ve owned have been sport bikes, or bikes that handle quickly and are easy to maneuver. Lightweight bikes that served as fun and affordable transportation. Harley Davidson’s didn’t have the reputation for economical or even...
