About Me


MyGen Profile Generator
I Ride with Jesus everytime I ride.
Nothing like an hour ride to start and end the day everyday. Not many people can ride Ortega 5-6 days a week. Something about watching the frustrated cages sitting there on a beautiful canyon rd as you smoothly and safely blend into the double yellows and disappear. Cold doesn't matter, rain adds a heightened element of alert that is already there, Pitch dark is something to be adjusted to, and bright and dry is liberating, Fog is rarely enjoyable. All circumstances are simply part of the environment and all offer their own aspect of enjoyment ....... it all about " THE RIDE". I like splitting lanes and watching the cars fade behind. Dropping into a corner and finding the perfect line. Smiling as I play with the Gixxers power .... "Intoxicating" !!
Looking forward to getting to the track. I am getting better every week, still a long way to go. Got 22k on my new 07 already. Getting close to 100 thousand miles on Ortega over that last many years. " hey guys, how do you see around blind corners" I still haven't learned that one. But that Dog helped me understand thinking on the fly and slow motion ( dog is alright)
Need to fix my smashed CBR.
Miss my smashed BMW RT
Really need to get back to the gym and train before I forget what an omaplata is.
Family is doing well. These days we are Thankful to God for all he has provided for us and rebuilt in our lives.
These are a few of the things I am pondering and meditating on.

Below are some the places I have trained. I'm working on MMA, Boxing, Muy Thai, Jujitsu, Wrestling @ Jokers Wild.... Great place. Nothing better than training MMA for all around fighting but time has been tough to find lately. High level competitors. This place can get you to the next level in your training. Joker is a member of the Tap Out crew and runs the school.

I trained with Grandmaster Kim in Westminster 14 years ago. Multifaceted art of hapkido. Good joint locks and throws, but flashy kicking was more fun than practical. I could do the splits back then, I must be getting old.
