Motozor

A girl, a bike, and an open road

Every fall, around Halloween, I make a document on my computer where I collect all the events I hope to attend during the next year, big projects I want to accomplish, etc. As the days grow shorter, I fill in with details - ticket confirmations, hotel reservations, notes on side trips, links to maps.. the ephemera of adventure. I thought this year I might share some of that in a sort of preview for the year, and hopefully it inspires someone else to take an adventure of their own, and doesn’t become a promise I don’t keep..


Projects

Major and minor stuff I want to get done sooner than later

  • Sell KLR & Tiger
  • BMW
    • Aux fuel cell
    • Radar
    • Reroute control cables for bar risers
    • Replace GPS power
    • Move seat to switched power
    • Add stop checklist to screen or something
    • FLIR (if I win the lottery)

GTs and untimed certified rides


Calendar


February


🏰 15: V-Day Week at Disney w/Chloe & Sam

My friends Chloe & Sam are going to Disneyland for Valentine’s Day, and I decided to get a ticket to the Sweethearts Nite event.. and grabbed dinner reservations at Cathy and Blue Lagoon!

March


✅ 10-12: IBA Pizza Party - Jacksonville, FL

Optimistically signed up and made reservations; maybe I’ll mix in a 50cc attempt?

April


15: Kactus Kilo

Website

I might pop back west for this, we’ll see. I like to leave possible events on the calendar, as well, in case plans change.

✅ 29-30: Heart of Texas Rally - Irving, TX

Website

Wouldn’t miss this! Trying to decide if I want to hang around the Southeast for March/April, maybe explore up the Carolinas, then head over to Texas… or park the bike in Texas and fly home for a month? Definitely have a ton of friends and coworkers who need visiting.

May


✅ 26-29: West Coast 66 Rally - Pasco, WA

Website

Another can’t miss event, and my last “tune up” event before LDX.

27-29: How the West Was Won (HW3) - Sayre, PA

Website

If WC66 doesn’t go, change registration to HW3?

June


🏍️ 9-12: Minnesota 2022

Website

Start/Finish location: Google Maps

If for some reason WC66 doesn’t run and I sign up for HW3, this would be a fun event to tack on before heading to Cheyenne for LDX

Currently in the planning stages - stay tuned
