Motorcycle Blogs You May Want to Visit

Gary France is a Brit who is planning an extended tour via motorcycle in the U.S. this summer. He and I have been in communication in regard to his route and I periodically check his blog, http://garysusatour.blogspot.com/. Well, I checked it today and he had just put up a post about a motorcycle insurance specialist, Carole Nash, who had put up a list of her Top 20 Biking Blogs. As you might expect, the list leans a bit to British blogs but not entirely. Gary’s blog was one of them. As I guess they say in England, he said that “I am chuffed to bits.” (That means he’s pleased.)

But when I saw the list I figured I’d pass that along to you. In Carole Nash’s post she tells a bit about the blogs and has a screen shot of each one’s home page. I’ll just give you the links and a couple comments.

It’s a good list. There are several I recognize and would include in my own list if I was making one. They include Helmet Hair, Bikes in the Fast Lane, and Cyril Huze. Worth checking out.

Chessie’s Tales, Motorcycles and Rides

By the way, Chessie is another I’m familiar with and that’s because she has read some of my stuff and left comments. I’m pleased to see her in this list, too.

Finally, as a bonus extra, commenter Glen Hughes noted on Carole Nash’s post that she left out this good one, which I’m also familiar with: Rippin Kitten.

Of course I would add the Passes and Canyons Blog as a favorite, but you already know about that one. And I’d also give you Redleg’s Rides. So that should keep you busy for awhile.

Biker Quote for Today

Motorcycles tell us a more useful truth: we are small and exposed, and probably moving too fast for our own good, but that’s no reason not to enjoy every minute of the ride. ~ Dave Karlotski
