British Motorcycle Gear

A photo from a ride through the northern Sierra Nevadas. That’s my old Triumph Tiger.

Hey, here’s an alert to a cool new moto blog from good buddies Val and J.  It’s focused on an area that is arguably one of the best riding locales in the US, and that’s the northern Sierra Nevada mountains.  The site is appropriately titled Sierra Mountain Passes and it’s impressive.  My advice is pay it a visit and add it to your favorites list (it’s now on mine).

Sierra Mountain Passes grabbed my attention for a couple of reasons.  One is that I did an article for Motorcycle Classics magazine on the area a few years ago (Five Sierra Nevada Passes), the other is that J and I will be hunting deer in Idaho later this year. That’s going to be fun.

Good buddy J on a recent Baja ride.
