What is this all about?

It's about motorcycles. Mostly older bikes, but who knows, maybe I'll ride a newer bike and think it's worth mentioning too. Honestly, I just figured that I've seen so many different bikes already, it would be neat to have a record of a current day bike geek's impression of the older iron that used to be high-tech. While I certainly haven't ridden everything, or even close to it, I have thrown a leg over a pretty broad variety of 1960's, 70's, 80's, and 90's motorcycles.
I love motorcycles generally and can appreciate even the awful ones. Just like with kids, a parent (owner) can always find something to love about even the dumbest and ugliest little brat of a kid (Ducati Paso 750/Yamaha TX750).

And oh yeah, I like pictures too!

Let's just see what happens...
