Camp set at Stovepipe Wells, inside the Death Valley National Park. Bikes still clean, mayhem proper set to start the next day. This post is in honor of my friend since the days of High School Edda Isabel Girardi Karnas (Bel) who passed away on 3/18/2019. #fuckcancer #deathvalleynationalpark #deathvalley #stovepipewells #hondacb500x #cb500x #cb500xadventure #rallyraid #rallyraidproducts #hondamotorcycles #yamaha #wr250r #bikelife #motorcycle #motorcyclesPart of the fun on motorcycle trips to the Death Valley is the trip to get there itself. Especially when getting closer to the Death Valley. By sheer coincidence this time around I met three of the nine folks on the road as I got closer. We stopped, hugged each other and decided to have lunch in Randsburg. This is one of the many towns that was born out of gold which was discovered nearby, in this case in 1895. Many of these towns have died naturally as gold mining ended. Randsburg has survived, population 69 on last census, and is now a tourist destination from fall to spring. Unfortunately for us, the town is only “open” during weekends... we were there on a Wednesday. Anyway, it was good to see it, a nice short detour, and we were soon at our basecamp destination in Stovepipe Wells. #deathvalley #motorcycle #motorcycles #bikelife #randsburg #adventureriding #goldrush #goldrushtowns #california #hondacb500xBikes loaded! 2019 Death Valley Adventure Riding gets nearer. #cb500x #cb500xrallyraidstage3 #cb500xadventure #hondamotorcycles #hondacb500x #wr250r #yamaha #yamahamotorcycles #deathvalley #2019deathvalleytrip #motorcycle #motorcyclesWhen simple lines mean sophistication! Picasso proposed simple lines in his bull lithographs series circa 1945... the lesson? it is a challenge to make it happen. Moto Guzzis are great motorcycles with traditional air cooled motors even on today’s models, not known for sophistication. Loved how this builder managed to simplify this 2001 Moto Guzzi even further and at the same time taking it to another level... a sophisticated result in my opinion. Should I call it Scandinavian/Italian perhaps? Certainly something Picasso never envisioned. Art history buffs are ready to kill me now. #motoguzzi #onemotoshow #motorcycles #motoguzzimotorcycles #caferacer #artonwheels #picasso #picassobullsBikes are ready for the 2019 Death Valley adventure! With all the snow, who knows how are the roads and passes on the way to Death Valley, and then what Death Valley roads and trails will be open. No matter what, that’s already the adventure we have ahead of us. #cb500x #hondamotorcycles #rallyraid #rallyraidproducts #cb500xadventure #wr250r #yamaha #deathvalley #deathvalleynationalpark #adventure #snowcalipse #snowmageddonBecause Moto Geo reminded me of this bike on his OneMotoShow video, I decided to show one more RSD / Indian collaboration. This bike was ridden by Travis Pastrana in Las Vegas in July 2018, successfully jumping the fountain at the Ceasar’s Palace. It was a re-creation of one of the famous Evel Knievel jumps. I remember watching Evel Knievel’s jumps on TV as a child. The bike is based on the Indian FTR 750 Scout. #evelknievel #travispastrana #travispastrana199 #indianmotorcycle #ftr750 #ftr750flattracker #rolandsandsdesign #rsd #onemotoshow #motogeoRelated Blogs
