International Female Ride Day



Today is the annual International Female Ride Day.  All you female riders out there, what are you doing today?  I have two very cool things I'm doing.  First, I'm getting together with my fellow sister riders from the Mountain Shadow Riders and we are doing a group photo.  Then a few of us are going up to Denver on our motorcycles for the second day of the Steel Horse Sisterhood Summit.  It's going to be a fun day with fellow sister riders from across the country.  I can't wait!!!

Wishing you an awesome riding day in your part of the world,

                                                  New Motorcycle




Hello, I took a hiatus, but I'm back.  There just wasn't any riding since my last post.  We got a fair amount of snow during the winter and a lot of extremely cold days.  Too cold to want to get out and ride, brrrr.  It's finally warming up a bit to get out now and then.

So at the end January of this year I took the plunge and got a new motorcycle.  I rode just over 8 years on my V-Star 650 custom and had a lot of fun times, but I wanted to finally upgrade.  Being short, that limited me a lot.  I had been admiring another rider's trike in my motorcycle group.  After doing much research I discovered that the Can-Am Spyder's are a bit cheaper and more stable than a trike.  I also think they are so cool to look at.  My husband was so supportive of this decision and we went out shopping for a used one.  After looking and drooling over the new models on the showroom floor, we broke down and I got a new 2013 Can-Am RT Limited Spyder.  I got a little bit of a deal, as they wanted to make room for the new 2014's coming out.  So here we are in mid April and I already have 1,071 miles on the spyder.  I am just loving my new choice!!!  Now I need to update the header of my blog to the adventures of riding a spyder, lol.  I already have a few things to share in future posts.  

With spring around the corner, I know many of us are gearing up to ride.

Wishing you wonderful adventures in your part of the world,
