I am riding over to Lake George today for the Annual Americade Motorcycle Touring Expo. This is my favorite annual event because it is oriented to my type of riding—long distance touring.

Grace and I were talking about how there are so many different types of motorcyclists. I have always been in the long distance touring category; however, now with my Norton, I’ll be in the classic British bike group. Tony is a Harley guy through and through, there are the BMW riders, the sport bike guys, the 10 percenters, hard core bikers, the trike guys and then the ones that annoy me the most, the trailer-toting motorcyclists. I’m sorry—trailers don’t belong on motorcycles, instead of waving as they go by, I usually mumble, “get a minivan!”

I usually poke fun at hockey since most of my team are rabid hockey fans, but I was actually watching the Stanley Cup Finals this year. The Chicago Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup for the first time since 1961—which was about the last time I followed hockey, in the days of Bobby Hull, Stan Mikita and Glenn Hall. Yeah, BlackHawks!
