I feel love thumping at the doors of my heart

It is time to start dreaming about spring. My dreams have their fair share of tulips and green shoots, but 99% of them involve zipping down the highway with nothing but two patches of rubber and a beautiful machine to separate me from the pavement. Who needs wings?

Went to the Edmonton Motorcycle show yesterday. I think I'll survive the rest of winter now.

Star of the show/object of my desire, January 2010

Who would NOT have fun on a Monster?, January 2010

Oh, just to touch if not to ride, January 2010

LED bling ($70,000 bike), January 2010

How do you learn to fly like that?, January 2010

Jason Britton! Live! In Edmonton!, January 2010

Can we go now?, January 2010

This is what seeing all the new bikes makes me feel like:

The English Beat, Doors of your heart (1981)
