Today I joined ~400 people from the local community at @seattlehumane.bsky.social's first Together For Pets Luncheon. It recognized the community helping to not only find homes for pets in need, but keeping pets and families together when help is needed. Proud to have sponsored with the Tulip Ride.

Saw Drink the Sea tonight. Been at R.E.M. shows with Peter Buck since the 80s, and tonight he was great with Barrett Martin (Screaming Trees). Great venue, amazing second set. Thanks @lori.henshaw.org & @paullu.bsky.social for a breakout Thursday evening. drinktheseamusic.com @remhq.bsky.social

"We get on our bikes and seek the unknown" Unboxed my pannier liners today, and found this on the fabric inside the top box liner's cover. Unnecessary, but the sort of added touch that upshifts from functional to joy. Well played, BMW Motorrad.

Capitalized on the last few days of this amazing extended riding season with a North Cascades loop that brought some flaming, and some furry, surprises.

Yosemite, Death Valley, Tahoe, and Lassen Volcanic
Three National Parks and several National Forests in one amazing ride through 115° heat in Death Valley, and penny-sized hail at Lake Tahoe. Wildfire smoke hazed the view, but the parks are still incredible places to ride.

September Loop in the Pacific Northwest
You know you're not in Seattle when the motel provides complementary gun-cleaning rags. This trip around the Northwest taught me that the fuel range goes below zero.

The Proper Way to Break In a New Motorcycle
My idea was to purchase the bike roughly the same distance away as the break-in interval, and choose a route home that was inherently diverse in its speed and riding style

Endorsed for Three Wheels
When I went into the dealership to look at trikes, I learned that I couldn’t even take one out on a test ride because they require a completely different driver’s license endorsement.
