I Passed the MSF Course!

I took the two wheel safety training course and passed! First there was a 6 hour classroom session last Thursday night. I was a little disappointed with it, and felt like I hadn’t learned much more than what I read about in the little MSF book I got when I bought my motorcycle. Then there…

Halloween

Ah yes, my favorite time of year. I love to dress up and go to Halloween parties. But this year has been a little stressful for me, so once again I am taking a break. I’ll probably just pass out some candy. If you are looking for my old costumes, you can find them here.
