Manha de junho no Douro

Scenic View Morning Ride Scrambler

Sai de casa as sete com a Scrambler e fui direito ao Douro. As vinhas ainda tinham neblina e nao havia ninguem na estrada. So eu e o barulho do motor a ecoar entre os socalcos.Parei num miradouro antes do Pinhao para ver o rio la em baixo. A agua estava parada, quase um espelho. Bebi cafe numa tasca que abriu ha pouco e o dono quis saber tudo sobre a moto. Disse que o amarelo combinava com a paisagem.Na volta apanhei terra na estrada e a Scrambler portou-se como deve ser. E para isto que ela serve. Cheguei a casa antes do meio-dia com o sorriso colado na cara.

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 ...

Above the Clouds

Scenic View

Rohtang was never about reaching the top. Every second person on Instagram has a photo at the Rohtang sign, posing like they conquered Everest when there's literally a traffic jam of Innova taxis behind them. No, for me the ride was about that stretch between Gulaba and Marhi - where the treeline ends, the clouds drop below you, and suddenly you're riding through what feels like the inside of a painting that hasn't been finished yet.I'd left Manali at five in the morning specifically to beat the tourist rush. The Himalayan was running beautifully in the cold air, that single-cylinder thump echoing off the mountainside like a heartbeat. There's a dhaba just before the first switchback where an old uncle makes the best aloo paratha you'll ever eat in your life, served on newspaper with a cu...

Sunset Rider

Sunset Scenic View

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...
