View break on the Oregon coast. Rider: @madison_lundy #dainesemoto #dainese #daineserider
She rides as good as she looks. @madison_lundy on the Old McKenzie hwy. What a blast!
MotoLove just happens. Riding will do that to you. @madison_lundy @lundy_images
Foggy morning on the Oregon coast. We walked to coffee, ate wild blackberries from the bushes along the sidewalks, danced with older women in the karaoke bar, marveled at the characters we met, and rode our motos on the most carvaceous back roads in Oregon. #lifeisgood
An impromptu ride to the lava landscape of Dee observatory and some of the best twisties in Central OR with moto bud @lundy_images. Aren’t we lucky to live in such a beautiful place, with such awesome people? #grateful
An oldie but goodie :-) When we were in the Amazon a few years ago we stopped by a little house in the river that had various critters hanging out. This baby sloth was one of them. I was instantly in ❤️! It’s a cold, cold heart that can’t be melted by these cuties. Thanks @danicruzphotography for hosting us and amazing lifelong memories!
Sometimes we need to humble ourselves and accept that something very simple can make a big difference. I just listened to a great talk by Melissa Gilbert, and one of her top tips for being successful as a creative writer, or artist was this: an old-fashioned egg timer. No phone timers, no nothing that can distract you, or allow you to be distracted. Set the timer for one hour, put your head down (or headphones on), and start to work on that creative endeavor. Don’t stop or touch anything else until the timer goes off. Do this every day and you will be successful. I just started this morning using this to finally get me started on my latest book project, “Beautiful”. I think it was what I needed to get this thing in motion. And you know what they say about a rolling stone. No moss means procrastination no mas.

This is why bike locks need to come with instructions. Lucca, Italy 😜 #pleasestealme
Little details at a snack break. Got a macro attachment for my iPhone and it’s pretty nifty! Slow food in Lucca, Italy.
Sunset picnic in Lucca, Italy. On the wall surrounding the city. ❤️
Lucca, in Italy, is a wonderful little town surrounded by a wall that you can walk, bike, or skate on and circumnavigate the city. It is lined with beautiful trees, park benches, grassy knolls, and little Cafés. We grabbed some salami and cheese from the local deli, tossed the goodies in our bike baskets, and had ourselves a picnic on the wall, overlooking a beautiful botanical garden in a villa below.
