LIVING LIFE ON MY MOTORCYCLE

About Me

I'VE BEEN RIDING MOTORCYCLES SINCE I WAS A KID. I JOINED THE MARINE CORP IN 1981 TO HELP PAY FOR A NEW HARLEY. EVERY YEAR AS I GET OLDER I RIDE EVEN MORE. ITS GOTTEN TO THE POINT WHERE I ALMOST LIVE ON THE ROAD. I GO TO ALL THE RALLIES IN THE US AND HAVE BEEN TO EUROPE ON MY BIKE TOO. I'M PLANNING A AUSTRALIAN TOUR THIS FALL.THIS FALL I WILL BE LAEVING SOUTH FLORIDA. I WILL BE MOVING TO THE MOUNTAINS OF TENN. NEAR THE GA. AND N.C. BORDER. IT IS A SMALL TOWN LOCATED HALFWAY BETWEEN KNOXVILLE AND CHATTANOOGA.CHECK OUT MY NEW WEB SITE WWW.BEANRE.COM

My Interests

I am a biker but I also have many other interests. I love snowboarding and I have boarded all over the US and in several other counties as well. I also enjoy fishing. I can sportfish offshore or simply drop a line into a pond.

I'd like to meet:

I enjoy meeting people in places where I have never been. Thats probably why I travel so much. Famous people are cool but there are just like us. I only beleive they had some good breaks.

Music:

Classic rock is what I grew up with and I listen to on radio but I also like the new bands to see live. My favorite has to be Audioslave. They rock! Been to alot of concerts and I go everychance I get.

Movies:

I watch alot of movies. I get them by the handful at blockbuster. I like the typical guy flicks but have even been known to see a chickflick, just not very often-lol

Television:

When I'm home TV has a way of taking me away from everything that has been going on that day. Some people have a drink to unwind. I lay infront of the TV. I would have to say that my favorite show was the episode of VTwin TV that the did about me. What can I say- its not everyday that kind of stuff happens-lol. I'm sort of like Cramer on Seinfeild. I don't know how all the stuff happens, it just does and on a regular basis.

Books:

working on my own book which will be available at www.beanre.com check out the site now- its free

back in the wind

I have been in Miami waiting for my house to sell so that I can finally make that move to Tenn. Money has been tight and it seems like all I do is work ( as hard as that is for some of you to beleive)...

I'm over cricket

  I had stayed in Sydney way too long. I wanted to get back into Melbourne to make sure I had plenty of time. It is only about a 600 mile ride but I didn't want any surprises. I needed to get to ...

timing is everything

 I rode like the wind and 2 days later was in Brisbane. I got a room in the seedy part of town but they still wanted 100 a night. I talked them down to 80 which I felt was a rip off but when I we...

deliverence without Burt Reynolds

 The picnic table I slept on was not the most comfortable even with my foam camping mattress. Needles to say I got up early but I needed to so that I could have my morning Latte and a light break...

wet dreams

 It was a beautiful day riding south. I wasn't going far, only about 50 miles. I wanted to keep riding and take advantage of the great weather but wasn't to stop in Tully, a small town that had a...

The Great Barrier Hurle

I slept great and woke up early as usual. I needed to be at the downtown harbor at 7:30 am. The woman at the desk said it was only a short walk and that I should leave my bike. Leaving the bike sounde...

I fought the law but the law won

Sleeping on the ground was getting a little old. I didn't have a air mattress and the ground is quite hard. I was up at dawn and decided to make an early start and put some miles down. I had 1000...

the lone rider

We were riding north in the afternoon. We hadn't gotten very far today when we saw a sign for Glasshouse Mountain. John had read something about it and so we detoured to check it out. It wasn't too fa...

surfs up!

We awoke at sunrise having went to bed early. We loaded up the bikes and rode  north. Within a few miles of where we camped we came across a herd of Kangaroos in a field lounging. We pulled over ...

 We got up in the morning and I was ready to ride. I had already been in Australia for over a month and I had taken my time seeing all the sights along the way. I now wanted to ride as fast ...
