Frank’s Motorcycle Pages

image

I hit Google today and stumbled upon Frank’s Motorcycle Pages. Frank is from California and has written quite a few trip reports from rides around California, Nevada, Oregon and other places west in the United States. He rides a yellow 2003 Kawasaki ZR-7S and likes taking photos on his trips – and they’re quite good!

He has written a little bit about his life philosophy on this page, here’s an extract:

“There would be many hours of riding in the saddle, focusing on the road, being buffeted by the wind, smelling the trees and the highways, feeling the heat of the day and the cold at night, sometimes listening to the rain hit the visor of my helmet. It was a completely different feeling from my normal life. Instead of just sitting and looking at the world around me, I am part of the world; I am part of the environment”

His site is well worth a visit. I’ve added it to my blogroll in the menu on the right. Click this link to visit his site: http://www.xsrider.com

Hubert has been riding non-stop for 5 years!

 

Hubert travels around the world for 10 years!

Hubert decided to quit his real estate job in New York 5 years ago and has been riding his bike for 5 years non-stop. Needless to say, his blog is full of great photos telling stories that very few can match. He estimates that he’ll be running out of money in 2015, then he’ll have to get a job – but for now he’s happy riding his bike. He keeps his belongings in his sidecar and spend many nights in a tent. Right now he’s in Lapland in northern Norway. Read all about his rides on his website The Timeless Ride.
