    This is the Story of How I Got Here
    And Became Edward Running Bear of the Blood of Many Nations.
    Do Not Look at the Picture of a Life Lived.
    Feel The Journey for Your Self in the Words That at Times Will be From The Poet Himself.
    This is Not a Journey of Time and Space Going From Place to Place.
    This is a Journey of Pain, Seeking a Place Out of the Way.
    Finding Instead The Healing Found Only in Inner-space.
    Driven Along the Four Red Roads and Finding,
    In a World Gone Mad with Outer Strife that Masks the Inner Pain,
    The Path of All Who Teach That Leads to the Same Inner Peace.
    My Hope is That You Can Better Feel Your Way
    Following These Few Crumbs of the Printed Page in Pixels
    I now cast into cyber space

  4. Where's the 1st one Char? I would so bin it ...
     
  5. Wonder if Norman Foster rides a Ducati?
     
  6. Nevada I think

    You'd still give it a go though
     
  7. Anything with a 'To die for ?' poster. And they look like two prime candidates :biggrin:
     
  8. First one looks like Arizona or maybe Spain, but yes looks great to me :smile: My bucket list will consist of any quietish roads with national speed limit signs at either end. My list is made up of destinations rather than roads. I was even thinking about the logistics of riding my Kawasaki to Japan. I might even write a book about it....maybe

  9. The roads under the viaduct are too tight and nadgery for a duke (be great on a supermoto though). No, head north on the bridge, then west on the D911 (I think) - now that's Ducati territory: empty, perfectly surfaced road with 130mph knee-down sweepers:upyeah:
     
  10. That second one reminds me of a road in Virginia.
     
  11. Mine aren't roads, they're racetracks. I've been lucky enough to ride a few current GP circuits and a few ones that used to be on the calendar already: Donington, Silverstone, Jerez, Assen, Eastern Creek

    There's a few more I want to add to that list: Phillip Island (racing there later this year), Laguna Seca (the corkscrew!!), Brno, Mugello, Misano, Sepang, Aragon and the Isle of Man (planned 2015, 2014 if I can swing it)

  14. You should do it bradders, it's proper fun:upyeah:
