Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Moments


With a little help from the late, great Robert M. Pirsig, we ride our motorcycles to a place we've never been before and enjoy a Sunday ride that is completely in the moment. No plans, no schedule, no hurry, just Clif on his Yamaha FJR1300, Britt on his Harley-Davidson Dyna, and me on my FZ-07 as we explore flora and fauna in the red dirt country of West Texas on a beautiful autumn day.

Additional notes on this episode:
1.) Texas's only natural lake is Caddo Lake, which it shares with Louisiana.
2.) Texas has 187 manmade lakes/reservoirs.
3.) The Hedge Apples in this video are Maclura Pomifera.
4.) Mrs. Kathy's is located at 3413 College Avenue in Snyder, Texas.
5.) Total mileage for this trip was 171.
6.) Shoot date was Sunday October 13, 2019.

Harley-Davidson to show earnings for Q1, but continues its epic slide | What went wrong with this brand?

Even though Harley's freefall as a company continues, it looks like they will actually post earnings for Q1 according to THIS STORY from Yahoo! Finance. That wasn't expected and buys them a little more time in the wake of having recently stopped a partial takeover. Here's hoping they figure out a way to turn things around, but according to the current numbers, it's gonna take more than their few remaining loyalists to save this dinosaur from extinction. That said, Harley has proven itself to have 9 lives in decades past. Let's just hope they're only on No. 8 because America wouldn't be the same without them. As a motorcyclist of some 42 years now, I've never had any serious interest in owning a Harley-Davidson (though I did entertain the thought building a Hammer Sportster several years ago). However, I do think it is an important American brand and that losing it would have a huge negative affect on the American psyche. It would be the equivalent of lo...
