Summer Cruising on the Klunker

Summer causing on the Meriwether Klunkpacker is opening my eyes to bike versatility and flat bars. Check out the images and words from rides and rambles in MN, ND and IA.

Maah Daah Hey

Next weekend is the MDH trail race and I have a number of friends doing the event. I had the good fortune of riding and touring the trail recently. I took two day and rode much of it. I didn’t have enough time to do a full out and back or a coordinated drop off […]

MY CUP RUNNETH OVER

I have been a bit quiet lately huh? Based on my posting, some of my friends have been asking me am I dead? Nope, just focused and busy. My cup runneth over is a phrase meaning I have more than enough for my needs. So much in fact that I am almost drowning. So much […]

Souris Valley – North Dakota big country

I am a little behind in my posting but the memories of my trips and my rides are fresh and at the front of my mind. When I need to escape the hustle & bustle of the city, as well as my stress from work, I often escape to my memories of the Souris River […]

Not dead yet!

Hey folks, just back from our annual family trip to North Dakota. I brought Big Blue (my trusty Fargo) too and enjoyed some quality time in the big, big country. I just got home and am offloading images, but here’s one I like. I’ve taken this image each of the last 3 trips to ND. […]

Big, Big Country on Film

50th

I posted earlier in the week that the Gnat family was in North Dakota. We were back for a special reason, that being celebrating my wife’s parents 50th wedding anniversary. It was a special surprise mini family reunion. Celebrating a 50th wedding anniversary is special and every member of the immediate family made it home. […]

Big Big Country – Riding in North Dakota

Some of you know that from time to time my wife, kids and I get back to North Dakota to visit with family. This was a special trip, one I’ll share a bit more about later this week. Every time we go back, I try to bring a bike and I try to get out […]

Left out

I got in late last night from North Dakota. Our family gathering was great as was my big ride in the big country. I thought we’d get in earlier yesterday and that I’d have time to process a bunch of images. But…That did not happen. I am cooked and my mind and body feel like […]
