Thanks Tom, Danno, Dawn and everybody else that helped put the Black Dog together. We had a great time! Again!

I have posted my photos from this years Blackdog here:

We really had a great time-thanks to all of you for putting up with the sidecars! We look forward to doing the Black Dog all year long!

It was especially fun this year because my friend, Casey Houtz, and his little brother Brogan rode with us. Casey was driving #130 the black KLR sidecar rig. He took my sidecar class last June. The Black Dog was the second time he has ever driven a sidecar, outside of class!


If any of you think you might want to try three wheels, sign up for one of our classes. The next one is August 12~13 and there are still some openings. More info here:

Hi Dive!

The KLR is not near the bike my Triumph was. I do miss the horsepower! However it is an extremely capable machine and is lighter than the Triumph and easier to handle in the rough stuff.

The horsepower is comparable to the Ural, and like the Ural the gearing seems a good match to the power. I think the KLR will prove much more reliable than the Ural, which is what I need for my classes and tours.

We had a blast with the KLRs at the Black Dog!
