Life never passes you by

we couldn't believe our eyes

But we have photographic proof. My travel buddy and I were heading back to Hanoi after a day out on Halong Bay. During our three weeks of traveling around Vietnam we had seen as many as five people on a motorcycle and had seen various chickens,...

THE ENTIRE COAST OF SICILY

We arrived the port of Messina via ferry boat(so the adventure technically began in Naples) and in 10 days we were to experience the entire coast line of Sicily. Now we had been to Sicily a few times before, but this time it would be different as...

This little piggy went to market...

Motorcycle Lovers: Take a Walk Through History at the Ducati Museum in Bologna, Italy

When my husband and I visited Italy last year, we each chose one place we wanted to visit. I chose Venice: I wanted to see the famous canals and gondolas first-hand. My husband, a long-time lover of Ducati motorcycles, chose a tour of the Ducati...

1400 miles of life lived

A buddy of mine and I rode 1400 miles from San Francisco through Yellowstone, Death Valley, Lone Point, Las Vegas, San Bernardino, Santa Margarita, Monterey, and Highway 1. The idea for the trip started with plans to reconnect with friends in...

Palm Springs on Two Wheels

A scooter is not the most practical way to get around Palm Springs, but it is the best way.

The people of Taiwan, like so many in their corner of the world, have made scooters like the above one of their preferred means of getting from Point A to Point B. Considering the ease they afford to weaving in and out of traffic and their...

After School Car Pool in Goa

While touring around Vagator in Goa, I couldn't help but smile, and snap a photo, as this happy group of children were picked up from school. The elder driver of the scooter arrived, and was sitting outside as class was being dismissed. I watched...

Motorcycle Taxis, Uganda

In Kampala, Uganda’s capital, and other cities, boda-boda motorcycle taxis are among the most popular forms of transportation. But away from the industrialized centers, makeshift—brakeless—bicycles and scooters built out of wood hurtle down hills...

Scooters Abound

Arriving in Rome it becomes quickly apparent that the scooter is the prized mode of transportation. It's quick, easy, and let's admit it, it can be sexy with the right rider.

Learning to Drive

My wife and I are the only people relaxing on this white sand beach on the island of Lombok, when we her the buzz of a motor. We look up and see a Muslim girl learning to drive a scooter on the beach. The girl on the scooter seemed a little out of...
