Your Bio

Welcome to my world. You will find a growing photo collection of family, friends and hobbies that influence my life. Enjoy the photos and email me if you wish. Raising my two sons, teenage daughter and spending time with my wife and family, is the most important interest in my life, they will always come first. My personal passion is adventure riding on my dual-sport motorcycle(s). I consider myself an "Adventure motorcyclist" and enjoy the freedoms of riding dirt trails, riding with fellow rider(s), motorcycle camping, and the challenges of off-roading riding. Feeling the wind on my face, breathing the plethora of smells while riding is better than any day sitting behind a desk or trapped in a cage. If you ride you know what I'm talking about.
--Ride hard, obey the law, respect the land, ride within your own experience and skill level--you will save yourself a trip to the grave. Peace

1st KTM rally in 2005 for the Pacific North West : Awesome weather for our first KTM rally in Washington, Sponsored by KTM and several KTM dealerships. A special thanks to Bill MacDonald from Pro Caliber Motorsports for his foresight to bring such a rally to the Pacific North West, his idea became a reality when nine KTM riders enjoyed a beautiful weekend riding over 600 miles along Washingtons most sceanic roads. Look for a ride report at advrider.com under ride reports.
