Pillion Papers: 36570 US Highway 24 N, Buena Vista, Colorado

Lynn and Mike traveling on their BMW

The first time I ever rode on a motorcycle, Mike was the driver. He borrowed a friend's Honda CB550 and took me on a ride around Burlington, VT where we were college students. Mike bought his first motorycle, a Honda Sabre, when we lived in Indiana. We rode through the backroads of northwest Indiana until the motorcycle took a back seat to childraising.

Fast forward to today. We have more free time and what better way to spend it than on the bike? Mike rides to work whenever the weather allows. We go for short evening rides, longer day trips, and 3 day to 5 week+ explorations around the Southwest and further beyond. There's something thrilling and satisfying about sitting behind Mike, arms around his waist as we ride through the countryside. I tap him on the shoulder when I want to point out a deer in a field, a hawk lazily circling above us, or an ice cream stand we just can't miss.

Stay tuned to see where the bike takes us next!
