Hmm...

Reading the Intelligible City

Come by @blankspacegoshen this evening for a series of presentations by local designers. Oddly, I won't be talking about motorcycles! The event is free and starts at 5:00. #design #urbanism #morphology #blankspace #goshenindiana

We had to try the "Janus punch" for our anniversary dinner...

A beautiful morning in the field with old and new friends. Ended the day with roast pheasant in caper, dill & chervil green sauce!

First sampling of this year's dandelion wine.

One of my favorite motorcycles, the Majestic, circa 1929. A masterpiece of French engineering and sculpture, the machine features fully enclosed Art Deco pressed steel coach work that doubles as the frame, with an extremely early example of hub-center steering and overall panache. I got to experience this model in person a couple of weeks ago at the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum in Birmingham, Alabama. #barbervintagemotorsportsmuseum #barbervintagefestival

Trying out the new @motus_motorcycles MSTr at the factory in Birmingham last weekend. What a well-finished bike. #barbervintagefestival #birminghamalabama #janusmc #motusmotorcycles

@motus_motorcycles founder Lee Conn stopped by this morning to check out the Phoenix. We have been so impressed with Motus' hospitality and gorgeous motorcycles. #barbervintagefestival #birminghamalabama #motusmotorcycles #janusmc

What an honor to have George Barber stop by our booth and take a look at our motorcycles! #barbervintagefestival #barbermotersportspark #janusmc

Trying out the feel of Confederate Motorcycles Wraith. What a bike...

Post-distinguished gentleman's ride with @jordan_druber and @grantolio. It's a pleasure to work and ride with these guys, even if we can never get them to both smile at the same time... @gentlemansride #dgrchicago #dgr2015 #dgr

The Aldi Spanish Tour Continues

The Aldi Spanish tour continues tonight with the Viña Fuerte Tempranillo, a semi-dry red hailing from the quixotic district of La Mancha. It is a succulent wine with flavors of black cherry and plum and is complimented by nuances of clove and spice...... This wine does not need to chambré. $6.99.

Distinguished on a KLR. @gentlemansride #distinguishedgentlemansride #chicago
