When I look back at my Summer 2023 trip to Czechia I have a weirdly negative perspective on the trip. As I upload this “photo essay” of the trip my memories metamorphose into something more positive. This was following the less-than-legal Trans Czech Trail, of … Continue readingCzechia
It’s been a while. Last post in January 2021, which wasn’t even a real post. Three big trips and a couple little ones between then and now. I’ve changed profession, I’m a motorcycle electrician now. That surely deserves a post. I started writing something about … Continue readingNicked
This is the precursor to the post “Nicked” which until recently was the most current post here. The trip itself was wonderful and deserves it’s own record, so here it is. Lots of fine memories have come up as I pulled the text and photos … Continue readingTransitalia and Friends
This is a recreation of the Facebook post about this quick trip to Italy. Essentially I zipped across the whole north, skipping the concentration of trails in the western alps, in 4.5 days. The map above sometimes takes a few seconds to load and move … Continue readingAn Italian Quickie

I’m not sure about posting this one, mostly because looking at it from a 2025 perspective it seems somewhat alien to me. The photos are dull and uninteresting and I can’t say I love the text. It reminds me of just how much of a … Continue readingSardinia and the Death of Lenore
A couple of months ago I was asked by John Ross, the coordinator of the fabulous TET project, if I could put together a guide on navigating the TET using Locus Map. Here’s the guide. I’ve tried to keep it simple; there is a lot … Continue readingNavigating the TET with Locus Map
A relatively quick tech article for today, split into two parts. I’m not going to write a comprehensive how-to on either of these topics as YouTube already has the bulk of it covered. I used Rocky Mountain’s excellent YouTube video on how to do the … Continue readingWP 4CS Service Tips and Dal Soggio Ray Kit Install
Ok, a beer in Iceland maybe. But with no engine in the bike and virus induced isolation a dirtbike messiah needs something to do. You can control the zoom level in Locus Maps with the volume buttons on your headset. I had planned to just … Continue readingAndroid Handlebar Remote for Less Than the Price of a Beer
