Sunset run down I-30

City Sunset Bagger Freedom

Took the CVO out tonight right as the sun started dropping behind the skyline, that cherry red paint catching every bit of light on the way down. Rolled out of Dallas on I-30 with the windows downtown lighting up in the mirrors.Pulled off at a gas station out past Grand Prairie just to hear the 117 idle in the quiet. Some guy in a pickup rolled his window down just to say the paint looked like it belonged on a fire truck. Told him fire trucks wish they looked this good.Rode back into town with the skyline lit up full orange, engine loud enough I didn't need the radio. Texas nights were made for rides like this.

Golden Hour

Sunset Scenic View

There's a road outside of Stanley that goes absolutely nowhere and that's exactly why I ride it. No destination, no ETA, no Google Maps voice telling me to make a legal U-turn. Just two lanes of cracked asphalt cutting through fields so green they hurt your eyes, with the Sawtooths sitting there on the horizon looking like God got dramatic with the landscape tools. I take this road at least once a week from May through October, and every single time it resets something in my brain.Yesterday was one of those golden hour rides where everything conspires to be perfect. Left Boise around four, took the 21 north past Lucky Peak, and by the time I hit Lowman the light was doing that thing where it comes through the ponderosas in slanted beams and the whole forest looks like a cathedral. Pulled o...

Sunset Ritual

Sunset Scenic View

Reckon there's no better way to end a day than parked up at Burleigh Heads watching the sun drop into the hinterland behind ya. Got there yesterday arvo around half five, backed the Ninja into the grass near the lookout, and just sat on the tank for a solid twenty minutes doing absolutely nothing. Bloke next to me with a fishing rod gave me a nod like he understood exactly what was going on. No words needed.The ride down from Brissie was mint - took the M1 to Nerang then cut through the back roads past Mudgeeraba. There's this one stretch where the road dips through a patch of rainforest and the temperature drops like five degrees instantly. You come out the other side and bang, there's the ocean. Gets me every single time, even after living here three years.Stayed till the sky went full ...

Gates Pass at sunset is a religious experience and I will die on this hill. Literally - it's a hill, and I've almost died on it twice because I was staring at the sky instead of the road. But when you come around that last curve heading west and the entire Tucson valley opens up below you, painted in oranges and purples that don't look real, with saguaros standing there like they've been watching sunsets since before humans existed - yeah, man. Church ain't got nothing on this.I usually head out from midtown around five, cut through the Starr Pass neighborhood, and take the winding road up slow. The Sportster likes this road. Low speed, tight turns, good excuse to lean into those ape hangers and pretend I know what I'm doing. There's a pullout at the top where the hang glider guys launch...
