The Grand Shamrock Tour
We landed in Central Oregon after four years of living in an RV. Our full-time travel around the U.S. took us to 43 states and riding 500-1000 miles in each state! We found a peaceful home in the high desert with beautiful mountain views and decided to stay. This past year we sold the RV, sold the Big Mamba Jamba (the 2020 GMC Dually) and began building a “Bike Barn” to store our two NEW motorcycles: Caroline’s 2023 BMW F750 GS and John’s 2024 Honda Transalp.
We continue to share our story of motorcycling, travel, a few install videos, and maybe a Side-By-Side video here and there.

We want to invite you to watch the latest video from the AirStreamers - Jim and Michelle. They live and travel full time in a beautiful Airstream and you may enjoy following their travels. (Link below)
We had the pleasure of meeting them during their time here in Central Oregon and had time to show them just a brief glimpse of our life here on the Crooked River Ranch.
Thank you for the collaboration!

Which do you prefer? Black or Chrome crash bar and headlight guard? Good question!
We had someone ask for a “side by side” so why not take a photo of our #2023bmwg310gs ?
Since November we have made several additions and now the Nelson Rigg bag is in the way. 😂 I do hope this helps!
Ride safe and have a great weekend!

The Amazon link for the QWork Compression Latches is in the comment of the video. 👍
See below for copy and paste link:
This seems to be a popular video! We love the QWork Compression latches and apparently you guys do to! 😃
We are happy to say that we can now provide a link to this product on Amazon and at least get some credit for introducing you to it.
As a side... John just finished the install on the front bay door of our fifth wheel and now we are both happy. Let us know how it goes!

Thank you to the 45 people that showed up to our “Presentation” and our 1 year Anniversary Party! The positive comments that we received was so humbling to John and I and gave us the feedback we needed to move forward on presenting at the BMW National Rally in Redmond. Here are a few of the comments:
“Go John and Caroline! What a treat to hear your story. Those fireflies are amazing. “
“You guys rock. Thanks so much for the invite.”
“Thanks for having us! You are the most inspirational couple I’ve ever met.”
“Thanks to you and John for an awesome presentation. What an adventure you are having... To put 55k on the truck and over 35k on motorcycles in 3 years is wild. Enjoy your new bikes.”
A few more suggested name for Caroline’s bike:
“Smokey Martini”
“Chromeo”
“Pimento”
“Tupelo Honey”
“Anja”
And finally...
“To John and Caroline. May you be happy. May you be safe. May you be healthy. May you find Joy. Love you!”
It was a very special night for John and I for SO many reasons. To have friends and family take time out of their day and spend it with us was an absolute joy and we thank you!
