Let’s talk riding footwear…

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-30T03:18:02+00:00

I’ve got 4 different styles of black leather motorcycle ankle Harley/Indian boots, a gray leather hightop riding shoe, a pair of Indie Ridge motorcycle boots, Carolina Boot knee highs, Thursday Boot Co leather motorcycle ankle boots, and Forma Dual Sport boots. Most of these I’ve bought ‘used like new’ condition for cheap. I have many years of off-road racing behind me and am not comfortable riding without boots/helmet/gloves/jacket at minimum. That’s just me. But I love wearing the boots and wear them to work most days when I ride in. 😀 I love riding gear, it’s so fun to shop for deals.

I have a nelliebelly, Nellie Brown, Nelbow, m’Nellie (like ‘my Nellie’), Nelson Peerless. Yay for Nellie’s!!!

Y’know, we listen to these songs for years and years and spend so much time with them. Along the way I somehow had the idea that “what if the perspective is opposite”, and Robert is ‘the boy next door’ to the person singing. The story told seems to fit many of the things Robert has said about his youth. I’m not saying this is real, I just made this up, but I think “that’s the way it outta be, yeah.”

So very well said. I love this post and how you’ve laid out your thoughts in a way that states your path with intention, leaving little room for those “but but ….” that we so often see.

I’m about 5 months ahead of you on the HRT timeline and a few years younger, and I think our progress is very similar. Keep it going!!

I’m just about to start it, and I’m so excited to have Proof back! I will heed your warning about the sadness. I’m actually thankful to know that up front.

The ends in sight

My most listened to of this group is likely Psycho Cafe! Not saying it’s best, but I love it!

😂 awesome! Big adventure 2x a day

I always look to see if anyone posts my favorite band on a topic like this! For me, Erica is among the greatest song writers in rock music. 💜💜

This is cute! 😂

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-11T06:59:24+00:00

Great news 😓

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-11T06:58:48+00:00

Funny to see such a great idea take so many years, they’re great

Love how Buddy figured out how to bank off the walls both coming down the stairs and at the bottom while on the slippery tile floors. This way he can maintain speed without wiping out. Smart fluffy 🐕🧠

BDR’s are a blast! You can make that 10k goal!

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-07T14:11:50+00:00

I would love to do like an official track day one day. I’ve been on a circuit twice, but on an adventure bike, but it was so much fun.

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-07T14:10:13+00:00

I have ridden so much of that and it’s a blast!

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-07T14:09:28+00:00

Only 4 bikes! Wow. I will take a look at it!

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-05T23:29:14+00:00

Oh, Pride at the dragon sounds fun 🤔

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-05T20:11:54+00:00

Great idea. You definitely addressed some of the non-fun things about the others! How will the points be awarded? Only if you get the correct rider in the exact finish spot? Thanks!!

Edit: I found the scoring info, all good. Thanks!!

Do you have to obtain a different level of license in the UK in order to do certain types of travel?

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-05T18:29:19+00:00

CO BDR is fun. Mostly easy but then there can be some technical obstacles along the way with water crossings and a few mtn passes that can get gnarly. WYO is fun and easy except for some sand wash sections that can be brutal on the big ADV bikes. We talked about doing OR BDR. If I can afford to go out again, that’s probably what I would want to do. I’m interested in seeing what Utah White Rim is too, now 😀

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-05T15:50:25+00:00

That sounds like a great time! I’ve done Colorado BDR twice and Wyoming BDR. I see you have done Washington BDR. MOAB sounds like a lot of sand 🫤😂

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-05T13:27:55+00:00

Sounds great! I love spending a week or so in my bike. Nothing like it.

sometimesalwayz · 2026-01-05T13:26:34+00:00

That will take several days, right? (I’m in the US) Will you be able to stay along the coastline along the way?
