About Me

I won't sit next to you when we're the only 2 people in a booth at a restaurant.Looking forward to riding and fjords at Riksgransen in May. Only by putting it out there will we maybe get our asses to Sweden to ride in the midnight sun.Addendum: But we won't get our asses up to Sweden now because my darling boyfriend blew his knee in the Log Masters. Thank you honey. There goes Argentina in august as well.
