How NOT to take a motorcycle photo



First, be sure to take the photo AFTER the ride so that your jeans are all stretched out and you have serious helmet hair.

Second, face directly into the sun so that your eyes are good and squinty.

Third, make sure to get part of a lamp post in the picture for no good reason.

Fourth, stand in front of the bike, especially if you're over six feet tall, so that you can make the bike look smaller than it is.

Finally, make sure your T-shirt is sticking out the bottom of your jacket for a real touch of class.

Wife and I rode around the lake. Ride was uneventful except for one unusual sight. About ten thousand of several different kinds of water fowl were all clustered together in one lobe of the lake. I would have gotten a photo of it but the sun was directly behind the scene. That didn't stop a bunch of people from trying. The parking lot closest to the phenomenon was packed with amazed onlookers. The lot looked like a good place to get backed over by a distracted driver so we kept going.
