The Year in Cities 2008 (and 2007)

I haven’t done the Year in Cities since 2006. In a nutshell this meme is a list of all cities that you spent one or more nights in. So far for 2008, I’ve got the following (including motorcycle trips to Arizona and Seattle/BC and another trip to BC):

  • East Helena, MT (I live here)
  • Helena, MT (my girlfriend lives here but believe it or not I’ve never slept at her house I had another reason to sleep in the city limits)
  • Great Falls, MT (Mom used to live here. Also stayed over after Disturbed concert)
  • Red Lodge, MT (weekend away with girlfriend in June)
  • Spokane, WA (Goodguys car show in August)
  • Irving, TX (business trip in April – business analysis training)
  • South West Triumph Fest, Prescott, AZ in May
    • Henderson, NV (Visited cousin Jenny)
    • Prescott, AZ (Dwight’s house)
    • Springville, UT (hotel, on the way to Henderson)
    • Richfield, UT (hotel, on the way home)
  • Seattle-British Columbia Motorcycle trip in July
    • Thompson Falls, MT (John’s house)
    • Big Lake, WA (Lynda’s house)
    • Surrey, BC (Gordie’s house)
    • Kelowna, BC (hotel)
    • Nelson, BC (Mountain Hound Inn, also August weekend away)

Much better than 2006, and pretty good for a hosehead. I don’t currently have plans to go anywhere else this year.

The Best Triumph Bobbers

The Best Triumph Bobber Pictures Post – The Jockey Journal Board. There are some outstanding bikes in this thread. I haven’t even made if very far (it was started back in 2006). For example (so tempted right now to powdercoat my rims dark green and leave the spokes polished and get wide white walls)…
