HWY trip film. All my life I’ve had high anxiety, for the first time in my life I went to a therapist just for myself, she said I’m a master of hiding it. I tend to pull away and just want to observe to make sense of things. Sometimes it makes me shut myself in the house, and other times it takes me out on the road to try to make sense of the gears spinning inside my head. Every sign leading up to this trip said -don’t go-…. So many odd, mechanical issues springing out on me every day.. the anxiety deepens in you and  give yourself 1000 excuses of why you shouldn’t go. Well, I did go. I’m so glad that I did. This was a really beautiful trip. It was definitely taxing at times, right when I thought I had made it out of the mud and the trees of an old fire trail, I went sliding on my side next to my bald front tire, and I just had to smile. I spent my whole life learning from heavy slams, why should now be any different? I used to do it alone, mostly, I’m learning that it’s not so bad to have friends around to help pick you up from some of those slams and the low times. Thank you @hwy.inc Chase,Peter, and Dave, putting us all together. And thank you to everybody that was there, it really was a blast. Here’s just some of the photos I took on my favorite camera. Leica mp. Take a look. #4qconditioning

World’s getting pretty small these days. Still a lot of adventure out there to be had. Rode all the way to California for @bornfreeshow and didn’t even make it to the event, which is probably the best way to do any motorcycle event. But I did protest in solidarity with Afghans, crush six state lines, make about 32 new friends, munch 3,000 miles or so, eat clam chowder for breakfast, blow through 3 Andrew Jacksons in Vegas, and smile a whole lot. Which I think is the right way to live life, but I’m still working that out, so don’t take my word on it. Thanks to everyone who hosted or helped or put up with us, see you round the bend. Love you all. ♥️
