Bio: A website developer by day and lifelong motorcycle enthusiast, I find a bag a beef jerky and a few beef sticks get me through the day. I'm a computer geek going back to 1981 with an interest in online computing, but I'm also a blogger who loves to write. Maybe you'll catch me on the roads on my motorcycle.
