Thanks John. The Horizon’s Unlimited meeting near Heidelberg should be interesting. Many, many other world moto travels will be there. Then it’s off to Slovakia!

Sideshow Dave,
It’s fun to get comments from you. This European ride is a great learning experience. Having a base camp enables me to test and retest to see what works and what doesn’t.

Hi Pete,
Thanks for following. Belated happy birthday!
The one day we had snow across the entire road, we were moving at 15-20 mph. No brakes, no down shifting, no big acceleration, nothing that might cause the tires to break traction.

Dean, Keep up the good work. Love the pic’s and the commentary. I agree with you…with Lisa on the last ride it was like watching the old Saturday Matinee cliff-hangers where you had to go back the next weekend to see how the hero didn’t get hurt when he fell off the cliff and how the heroine escaped the oncoming train after being tied to the tracks. ‘Twas exiting reading on your last trip, but sometimes “boring” is just fine. Be careful out there and continue having a great time. More Pic’s are always good, too. Paige

well, that’s all pompous and condescending and all. Good job there and yay for you. And when I am old enough to retire I look forward to boring trips too! Meanwhile, the rest of us are hoping that you two are actually having fun on this adventure, as opposed to the boring crap you’re posting. So throw us a freaking bone and tell us more than about the temperature (yawn) or road conditions (whatever). Jeez. Isn’t there some fun or excitement or something of actual interest???? YOu must be meeting people of interest, or fun, exciting food, or great places you’re staying. Right??? And I don’t believe you actually HAVE a riding buddy unless he is Caspar the friendly ghost. No photos, no name, no nothing…just sayin….

Lumpy,
Inorder to have goofball antics I need to be riding with my ol’ goofball riding partner — you!. But you’ve gone housewife on me! I’m on a boring ride through Scandinavia and you’re on the thrill of baking cookies and the agony of shopping at Costco. We’ll try to see what hysteria we can create today but — dang it’s difficult when everyone we meet are just interested on where we’re from, where we are going and why we are riding in the snow showers. Guess you’re going to have to watch “Dancing with the Stars” or “Desperate Housewives of Orange County” for excitement tonight. I’m gonna go pack the bike and ride all day on a road I haven’t been on before… ) I know it’s boring but someone’s gotta do it.
My riding buddy concurs with this thought! :^P““

NB – We get it. It’s cold, wet, snow, more cold, more wet, more snow, crashes, fog, ice, cold, so enough already! We want FUN, FRIVOLITY, wrong turns, u-turns, bad border crossings, funky foodstuffs, crazy locals makin’ stink eye at Danish furrinners – you know, a Ride Report! What the heck. You haven’t even fallen over much OR had to pick up your riding buddies bike either. Boring!!! Gimme some goofball antics, something silly, stupid or just plain old hysterical. Holy Cow, I’ve been waiting for a month for this stuff to make me laugh and you are letting me down. So buckle down there bacon boy and gimme some good old fashion FUN!!! Hi to your riding buddy too!!! Miss you guys

Dean,
Perspective….it did not snow at all in my office today.

The snowest ride in Norway beats a warm day behind a desk everytime!
Ride safe.

I’m guessing that you’re going rather slow in the snow ?
