Blog Uwharrie Back Roads This past Saturday, the weather was going to be sunny and 50. We both decided to take a ride to Uwharrie and tackle ALL the forest roads. We usually do not ride these since there are many 4wd tracks, hiking trails, and horse trails so the traffic can be a
Blog Close Call...High Side I just got back from Florida. Was down there for a few weeks helping out my brother. No, did not take my bike so it sat on the trickle charger for almost 3 weeks. When I got back, the following day, I decided to take it out and go for

Blog Weekly Dinner One day every week, Kirk and I get on our bikes and ride over to a local Hawaiian restaurant (L and L). They have a special on Misubi (the spam version) which sells for $1. We eat for under $5 and it tastes great. After that, we head over to
