The Orange Happy Dance

I love Orange !

What I did on my Birthday- today...

I ended up spending 3 hours with my new young Sportster friend Derrick Dieffenbach. But we spent the time over at Seths Motorcycle shop watching Derrick's friend get his bike inspected, then Derrick decided to get a new rear tire put on(which took an hour). We finally went for a ride to Cruiser's Cafe- which I was told(last week) to stop by today, and guess what, they had- had a birthday celebration waiting for me, but all those 3 hours I spent with Derrick at the shop next door, made the Gals at Cruiser's think I Wasn't gonna show, so they had the party without me, and cut the cake and passed it out- all except one piece which they saved for me. Soooo... I traded a B-Day party for me with the ladies- for hanging out with some guys in a Motorcycle shop, ahhhh.... I was Robbed ! BTW- Derrick can be seen in the Slow Races Video, as the guy with white t-shirt with shaved head and stocky build, riding the Sportster custom with the batwing fairing. Derrick lost out early against the guy on the Yamaha R6.

Happy Birthday to ME !

Well, I'm waaay past the halfway point now. FYI- I consider middle age to be 35-40 years old, and I just Turned 51 today/June 29th ! ARGH :-(

Better late than never- Bike Nite June 23

Well, this past tuesday nite's Bike Nite at Cruiser's Cafe was the best turnout yet. The weather was perfect, and we even had a Slow Race competition as our Biker Game. See Joel's blog at http://www.cruisers-cafe.com for pix and Youtube Video of the Slow Race !

Sometimes my life feels Ying and Yang, but dare I say that- or I'll be diagnosed BiPolar !

Long time -No Post !

Alternate title; "Who'll Stop the Rain ?" Although to be fair, we had a really warm Spring with very little rain in April- when we should have gotten our showers. So I guess I'm just bitchin' coz I've been spoiled by the early nice weather this year.
FYI- I've done lots of motorcycle riding already this year, probably 4000+ miles already !? I've done quite a few Bike Nights already- including Two at Cruiser's Cafe, altho the first one was sorta rained out :(

I've been kinda depressed lately tho, as the reality that is my life-or lack there of, has really been hitting me hard. I'm made alot of mistakes in my life, and sometimes I really don't learn from them, so I'm doomed to repeat them :(

*Sighs* and old age is scaring the CRAP out of me as well.... I'll be turning 51 in a few weeks, and that AIN'T Middle AGE (Coz I know I won't be making it to 102 !), at the very best- my life is 2/3 over :(

Anyway, these are the cards I've been dealt, so I guess I'll just have to play them, as it's a bit too early to fold them....
