Catch the LDR Bug With Webb

"It's not the destination; it's the journey." This year I'll ride my Harley over 100,000 miles to help seven young men live their best lives by getting them off the pavement with an all-terrain wheelchair.

    I got my hair done!

    February 10 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 66 °F

    Well, I spent most of my day in bumper to bumper traffic around Dallas collecting four more Harley dealerships and a mural at the American Legion near where my parents lived.

    Man, I forgot how terrible traffic is here. And the same roads that have been under construction for the past 6 years (at least) seem to be in even worse condition than 6 years ago. Luckily, I didn't nail any of the huge potholes in the highway or drop my front tire into the massive gaps between the lanes. Bonus: only two cars pulled into me, both swerving back into their lanes when I hit my Denali Sound Bomb horn 🤣.

    After surviving I-635 and taking back roads through DFW Airport to avoid I-35E South--a.k.a. The Parking Lot--I got to the hair school in Grand Prairie an hour early, so I had lunch at Torchy's Tacos. Really good, but $6 for one taco is nuts.

    I had some fun with my hair today 🤣. The blond on the sides won't last past the next haircut, but the red should stay for a while, well, at least until it finally gets cut, too.

    All in all, another good day of riding. Plus, I got home just before dark 👍.

    Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING!

  • Perfect Weather Again

    February 9 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 73 °F

    Another day of perfect weather here in East Texas! 80 or so for the high, around 55 for the low last night. Just right for riding, so of course, that's what I did today!

    I popped over to Shreveport to pick up some AULDR stops and 2 Harley dealerships. Even though it's Monday, there wasn't as much traffic as I expected. Maybe everyone took the day off after getting too wasted yesterday during the game I didn't watch because the Cowboys weren't playing. Oh well. After so many years of living and traveling outside the country, I lost touch with sports. And I honestly don't miss any of them.

    Anyway, it was an uneventful ride today. Several stops, but I didn't meet anyone. (Both HDs were closed, as is typical for Mondays.) No close calls, truckers cutting me off, or animals jumping out at me, so cool.

    BTW, when I got home, I made it onto my parking pad without hitting a gopher hole, so I didn't need to use my jack today 😜. I could use Chevy Chase's help with the gophers out here 🏌️ 🤣.

    The only thing that went wrong was that I forgot my Wild Ass motorcycle cushion 😞. The stock seat on my bike is not a good fit for me, and Wild Ass makes it waaaay more comfortable. But I just put it on so I'll have it tomorrow!

    Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING!

  • Damn it I forgot the tracker again

    February 7 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 70 °F

    I am now completely relocated from Cincinnati back to Texas. I am so very happy to be out of the horribly cold weather up there and back to the lovely Texas winter.

    Today is about 65°F and barely a cloud in the sky. So naturally I had to take a motorcycle ride. I picked up I made it down to Lone Star Harley-Davidson and Tyler and then run around for another just shy of 200 miles to collect some America's Ultimate Long Distance Rider points.

    I'm trying to sell an extra windshield, but the buyer didn't show at Lone Star, which is why I had a big box strapped to the bike all day 🤣.

    It was a really great day, not a lot of traffic, warm and clear, very little wind. Just great therapy...until I got back to my rv-barn-dominium. There's so many gophers here and they leave soft spots in my gravel/hay/dirt drive. So I got to use my jack again to pick up the bike after I fell over. 🤦

    I decided it was a good opportunity to show y'all how I pick up a 1,000 lb bike without lifting it, so if you want to see the video, go to my YouTube channel (visit the POPL link below). It's too long to post here. Spoiler alert: I have a motorcycle jack 💪.

    I'm getting pretty good at using the jack, which I think is a good thing except that I'm using it way too often, which is why I'm getting good at it 🤣. It's a vicious cycle.

    I don't know what it is about this Road Glide Limited, but it is so top heavy that any little turn of the handlebars at slow speed just tips you right over. It's happened enough now that when I feel it going, I just keep my hands on the grips, pull my knees into the tank, and let it do what it wants, then brush myself off afterwards.

    If motorcycling was easy, everybody would do it, right? 🤣

    Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING!

  • I forgot to turn on the tracker

    January 15 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 21 °F

    Today was my second day on the bike this year and I knocked out about 300 miles. Unfortunately, I forgot to turn on my tracker, so the map isn't going to show today, but with 99, 620 mi left this year, I don't think that's going to make a huge difference 🤣.

    I spent all day in the snow and cold collecting photographs for the Harley-Davidson dealership challenge (5), the America's Ultimate Long Distance Rider challenge (21), and the Ride to Eat Across the USA challenge (1). It was only 300 miles, but it took about 13 hours because of all the stops, plus I stopped to eat lunch and thaw out a little bit.

    While eating lunch at Culver's in Dayton, I chatted with a lovely couple who also ride and are spending the entire year of their 50th wedding anniversary going on 50 mini trips and adventures. What an awesome idea! Kudos on you two and congrats for being able to put up with each other for that long 🤣.

    Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING!

  • Finally On The Road...For The Day

    January 7 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 46 °F

    Hey, everybody! I finally had the time and the weather to get out on the bike and begin my 100,000-mile ride!

    Officially, my odometer and starting mileage are 46,667.

    In 45°F and overcast sky, I headed up to Mason, Ohio, to visit one of my sponsors, Powder Keg Harley-Davidson, who threw a battery on the bike for me this morning. I put on my heated gear underneath my Aerostich riding suit, but I never turned it on--not even the gloves--and had to take it off when I got to the dealership. This suit is the bomb! There is not one seam crack and absolutely no air gets in the suit with all the zippers zipped. It is fantastic!

    After that, the sun started to come out and I headed back to Kentucky for a picture and check-in at High Stakes Harley-Davidson. One of my riding goals this year is to win Harley's Ride 365 Dealership Check-In Challenge. 2 down, 650 to go!

    I only logged 86 miles today, but it's a start!
