Milestones

Why is it that certain combinations of numbers in certain contexts seem so important?
The Tenere rattled over 20,000 miles today, in 25 months almost to the day. I got a feeling of satisfaction seeing it.

Playing

My christmas present lens arrived yesterday; a Sigma 10-20mm for my Canon. I couldn't resist snapping a few pics. I'm looking forward to taking more time over some more shots.

Buy the postcard (take the ride)

Hands shoved in pockets we wander,
works of the undying glimpsed.
What is seen is not really seen
for some.

Markings and notes,
the snap of the capture by those wanting
to remember more.
Yet not actually having the memory.

What is seen is more than seen for those that do.
It is felt and acknowledged.
Public spaces become private.
Personal is everywhere.

Triumph Love


Feeling the love for the Speed Triple. Appearances on Rocket Garage and on Bubble Visor have reminded me that I shouldn't sell it.
Also all that bare oiled alloy would be a magnet to the salt that's out on the road at the moment, so in the shed it will stay.
