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\/<\/a>. 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.)<\/p>\n

\"coolNow, the reason I was thinking about Gary is that I was going to do this post about him and his planned ride. The time is drawing near. But when I saw the list I figured I’d pass that along to you. In Carole Nash’s post<\/a> 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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

Helmet Hair<\/a>
\nBikes in the Fast Lane<\/a>
\nForty Years on Two Wheels<\/a>
\nUSA Tour on a Harley Davidson<\/a> (this is Gary France’s blog)
\nOuch! My Piles!<\/a>
\nAtlas Rider<\/a>
\nFuzzie Galore<\/a>
\nNo Foreign Lands<\/a>
\nKnuckle Buster<\/a>
\nSaul T Nutz<\/a>
\nTwisting Asphalt<\/a>
\nBike EXIF<\/a>
\nThe Kneeslider<\/a>
\nThe Scooter Scoop<\/a>
\nHonda Motorcycles Blog<\/a>
\nSwag\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s Rant<\/a>
\nMotorcycle Training Blog<\/a>
\nCyril Huze<\/a>
\nFaster & Faster<\/a>
\nChessie\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s Tales, Motorcycles and Rides<\/a><\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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<\/a>.<\/p>\n

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

Biker Quote for Today<\/h3>\n

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<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
