"Just like autumn leaves, we're in for change..."

Times are a bit strange. Work is a ticking timebomb, had two very good friends get laid off within hours of each other, and the fam is on the brink of making some serious lifestyle decisions. And on a positive note- Barak Obama.

I'm not sure why I feel the need to post anything today, other than to state the obvious- everything changes when you have a child. Don't think for a second that it's a bad thing- quite the opposite. Holden is, without a doubt, the most powerful being on the planet. He's capable of bringing me to tears and weakening my knees with the most unassuming action. Something that would be overlooked by anyone else other than his parents. Can't explain it.

Anyhow- not trying to get all emo, but what can I say? I was listening to TVOTR this morning, drinking coffee- and Province came on the iTunes. As the title of this post states, we're in for change.

Stay tuned...

Never been a scooter guy, but this is just bad ass


And Friday was Halloween. Got the kids together- check out the monkey attacking the lion

Fall in Portland

Matt sent me a couple pics from a little fall afternoon ride we did. Myself on the 400, Mike on his 400, Chris on his GB, and Matt & Julie in the 356.



Oh, and here's the happy fam. Maybe Holden will be into vintage bikes when he gets older? He is looking the part already....

Baby walking

Well, kinda. Here's a little youtuber of Holden walking with the help of a wagon. Dutch is pretty excited about it, too.

Happy Time

This makes me happy...

Summer's over

So this summer it was all about motorcycles. From the Three Balls Ride to the yet-to-be-named September ride, it's been tons of fun. Of course now I'm left with two motorcycles that are limping along after a summer of harsh use. I guess this winter it's all about fixing what's broken...

For a little inspiration, watch and enjoy (thanks Jason).


And if you have more free time, check out a great site here. Forget that it's snowboarding, and take a looksee.

Black Bubblegum

I know this is rather old, but this song came on my shuffle this morning and I thought of this clip. Conan is not phased by Dillinger or Les Savy Fav. He's the man... Check out the end for his glowstick mastery followed by a calm sip from the coffee mug.


****So apparently NBC took this video down, and since it's copyrighted- no one has a good version I can post. So you will have to do with this recording of the actual tv...
