February 1st
Thanks so much for all the kind and supportive comments. It was indeed an emotional day as we rode out of Medellin toward Bucaramanga. But it was a good day as I reflected back on the many memories that i have to be thankful for!! As a guy, my emotions are not...
January 31st. A sad anniversary for me.

January 30th
Woke up this morning to pouring rain in Medellin. We decided to stay in Medellin along with several other riders. Had a good facebook post from a friend. Ray Said; " Aint it nice to be able to say...(to heck with it). It is raining. I think I will just lay around...
January 28th- 29th Still in Medellin 🙂

January 23 & 24 Bucaramanga back to Medellin
Decided that I could ride the bike back to Medellin, figuring if I needed parts I could get them. It was a 280 Mile day on a bike with bent front end.... felt every bump along the way. But made it back to Medellin before dark ! It was a good ride, with beautiful...
TESROSTERONE VS PHYSICS! January 22, riding Colombia

January 21st Guatape to near Puerto Berrio.
As always parked our bikes in the lobby. This one was tight ..... The lady who ran the hotel was great, but could not get her into the photo... Cool wooden doors to the lobby. And I had a note on my bike. Unfortunately we were not able to give Tony a call... Thanks...
January 20th 2012 Medellin to Guatape. Colombia

January 17-18th, Medellin, Colombia
James was having some issues with his rear shock. They changed out the seals in the preload, but when we were ready to leave he noticed oil leaking from the main part of his rear shock. We had ridden down town Medellin to an area filled with small bike repair shops...
