To the ladies who have sent me some very nasty mails accusing me of being some soulless, heartless, jerk who has no compassion for women & their feelings or needs.... You're quite wrong, I do have great compassion for a woman, her needs & I'm always interested in how a woman feels. But constant drama is frustrating, to constantly have to prop someone up emotionally wears you down & will eventually destroy any relationship, I know this quite well as I've been in several of these & I don't care to go to that place anymore. A good relationship is about both partners, it can't be all about me, it can't be all about you, it needs to be about us. If my lady is sad or upset & I'm not the cause then I want to know what I can do to help, but if a lady has self-esteem problems, a constant need to be assured that she's the best thing that ever came into your life, anger or jealousy when you spend some time with other friends & not her, it wears a person down & this all applies to men in a relationship & having those same issues, no woman wants to deal with that either. People seeking or requiring honesty in a potential relationship have no call to get offended when the receive what they want, I'm not perfect & I'm not seeking nor do I require perfection in another as perfection is an unrealistic & unattainable goal...
Now, back to my profile......

Hello, I'm a 52 y.o. old school wind tramp & sometimes aircraft pilot, I'm 6'2", 230#, long dark blonde hair & blue/gray eyes. I've been building & riding for 35 years now, but tired of doing it as a solo act.
I like music more than the tv, I like to travel a good deal on my bike, putting for 200 miles or more a day is typical rain or shine. I like to take my sweet time about getting anywhere & I've been known to get sidetracked on my way to a big run by a smaller run that turns out to have better people & more fun than I might have had otherwise I've been told a time or two that I'm a good looking man, but you be the
judge, I don't play bullsh*t games of the mind or emotional kind & don't have tolerance nor patience for folks that do.

I grew up in Santa Cruz, in the Monterey Bay, I'm pretty easygoing as a rule & I have a somewhat twisted sense of humor, I'm slowly transcribing motorcycle journals that I've kept for the last 36-odd years into a book form, something that I'd not ever thought of until people that had read some of them started telling me that I should, I've written short stories that have been published in some of the biker magazines, but never thought that folks would find my journals so entertaining....

Distance isn't important as it's only a number on a map & relocation for the right woman is possible, or if she likes where I'm living then that'll work too. So write back if you're interested & ask me what you
will, I have nothing to hide.
Ride easy & enjoy the journey, that's what it's all about...


To the ones who obviously don't read profiles, I'm a biker, no, I'm not clean cut, no, I'm not in any way shape or form an executive, nor am I rich. I work really hard most of the time & enjoy my time off as much as possible, but I don't do fancy restaurants, opera, the theater, ballroom dancing or long romantic walks on a moonlit beach. I do enjoy bike runs, air shows & long pointless rides to nowhere in particular, I'm not a bar hopper, but I do like to shoot pool, play darts & have a few drinks now & again.
Yes, I currently smoke, but I'm in the ongoing process of quitting & for those who have smoked a number of years you know what making the big attempt can be like, for those who have never smoked, you'll just have to bear with me, it's sure as hell not an easy thing to do.
I'm a simple person with simple tastes, I don't care for drama, arguments, screaming matches, needy people, or whiners, if you're looking for a man to complete you (complimenting you is different) then I'm not him.

I'm not a mean person, but if you can't stand on your own two feet & constantly require someone to prop you up emotionally then you're certainly not going to like me. I am a really direct sort of person, tact & finesse aren't two of my major virtues, I will speak my mind & I expect you to do the same, it saves any misunderstandings.

I certainly hope this helps you in case you feel that you want to contact me....

A long ride up through the Sierras on a warm spring day or a warm summer's night, there's more to it than just the ride, but I'll fill the rest of this in later
