15 Months and Counting…

I’ve heard it said about parenting young children that the days are long but the years are short. I’ve found both of those things to be true. It is hard to believe that ThrottleGirl has been with us for more than a year now and that she has gone from a 4.5lb infant to a 20.5lb… Read More 15 Months and Counting…

Track Days on the Sidelines

Part of ThrottleDad’s and my deal is that we take turns riding and watching ThrottleGirl. This goes for weekend rides, bigger riding events like multi-day rides, and track days. I had a blast at Sonoma Raceway a few weeks ago, and so this weekend it is ThrottleDad’s turn for a track day – our first… Read More Track Days on the Sidelines

It appears that winter is over here in central California. After two months of decent rainfall, we’ve got a high pressure system sitting on top of us that is resulting in day after day of sunny, 70 degree weather.

Nine months and counting

When I got pregnant with my little girl, I knew it was going to mean big changes in my life. I knew I would be riding less, and hoped that I would be okay with that.
