http://sturgisbike.blogspot.com/2015_04_12_archive.html
A New Motorcycle for (BEYOND) Sturgis. A short discussion about motorcycling, rider friends, motorcycle gear and trip planning. Sturgis has long since passed, but the gear evaluations, bike mods and rides continue. Join me as I slide into the second half of my riding experience. Wednesday, April 15, 2015. Push me/First Ride 2015. Hope you're doing well and have a riding buddy, gym buddy or other partner who gets you through the not-so-fun parts of life. I'll see you out on the road. I hope you se...Okay,...

Harley-Davidson Road King Classic (FLHRC). My new Marmite: eCall. On March 11, 2014 by bleiglass. In a nutshell, eCall is a automated system in your car that sends out a distress signals to the rescue operations should a accident happen, all by itself, without human interference. The emergency services then can start their rescue without any delay. Hurray you say, this will save lives. I say, it will cost lives. Isn’t a crash the moment when most things break? Do not wear your helmet, it’s the law! On Fe...

Bee in the Wind: A Lovely Trip to Acadia Maine
http://beeinthewind.blogspot.com/2011/06/lovely-trip-to-acadia-maine.html
Bee in the Wind. Wednesday, June 29, 2011. A Lovely Trip to Acadia Maine. I am a member. Of a motorcycle forum called The New England Riders. An eclectic group of accomplished riders that just love to ride and eat. Of course, this is what bikers live for! Friday morning, I left home at 5:30am, meeting Mannie for the ride north. Excitement was in the air, for me, a couple of days on the road to the ocean and for Mannie, his brand new to him Goldwing. This was to be his first trip on it. I swear. As you ar...

The Future is not Today: March 2015
http://nomadwillie.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
The Future is not Today. Saturday, March 14, 2015. Well the riding season has arrived. Oops, there still is snow blocking the entrance to the garage where my FJR is located, however with the temps finally rising, it will succumb to bike wash soon enough. I will be participating in 2 Grand Tours this year. First one is the GLMC Talk Like a Pirate Grand Tour. I have participated in GLMC's GT for the last 5 years and finished in the top 10 in four of them. Posted by Willie aka NomadWillie. Into the menu sys...

The Future is not Today: November 2014
http://nomadwillie.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
The Future is not Today. Sunday, November 16, 2014. Some Rock N' Roll. A couple of weeks ago MeAsWe and I (or is that Me) headed for Ohio. Now we could have taken I-90 all the way there, but what fun would that have been, so we headed thru Connecticut into New York and finally picked up RT 6 somewhere around Scranton PA. To make a little time we did use I-84 to get out of New England. Right inside the door was this guy having coffee. Last stop in Middletown was the Webb Horton Mansion. Webb made his ...

The Future is not Today: The Plane The Plane
http://nomadwillie.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-plane-plane.html
The Future is not Today. Monday, May 11, 2015. The Plane The Plane. Morning breakfast with a coupon from Jailhouse Suites. Some place along the way. Seems the Midwest has a lot of these vintage gas stations. Before we got out of Dayton, we visited Endora from Bewitched. Stopped in Sidney to grab a picture of Louis Sullivan's Bank built in 1917. It still operates as a bank today. Most of the time it is not possible to go inside the buildings. The stain glass ceiling and windows are really kewl...A little ...

The Future is not Today: July 2014
http://nomadwillie.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
The Future is not Today. Saturday, July 26, 2014. A Sprinkling of Nutmeg. Got the Bloomfield High School and headed out of town. The GPS was acting up and I figured I had a corrupted waypoint in the route, because everytime I charged up the route, the GPS would shut down and reboot itself. Time for some Point to Point navigation. I find myself going down this neighborhood street, passed these guys coming home and had to go back for some pictures. I headed for the next historic spot, the Deep River Freigh...

The Future is not Today: August 2014
http://nomadwillie.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
The Future is not Today. Friday, August 22, 2014. WWW Tour - I'm Going Home - Day 7. Goin' home, my baby. Goin' home, my baby. Goin' home, to see my baby. Our baby, how good. My baby, be good. I'm goin' home, my baby. Home to see my girl. Alvin Lee Ten Years After - 1966. For breakfast we hit a place called the Egg and I, another place I would recommend. This appears to be a franchise type operation in it's early stages and they would appear to be doing things right from a chain restaurant perspective.

Bee in the Wind: April 2010
http://beeinthewind.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Bee in the Wind. Wednesday, April 28, 2010. Many of my friends are veterans who are very active in Rolling Thunder. They have been inviting me to ride to Washington DC each year since I began riding. The thought of 350,000 motorcycles in one place has always been a bit frightening! And there have always been obstacles preventing my attendance, you know. life's little adventures. This is the description of Rolling Thunder, (found online):. Please check out the website www.rollingthunderrun.com. So back to...
