Life is out there, we just need to live it

Biking

CTRL-ALT-DEL. Again.

By on June 1, 2023

Once again, I am restarting. If I had a dollar for every time I started over, I would have a much different financial outlook, but once again, here we are. I’m in a funk. I’m not sure exactly when it started, but I know it’s been for at least the last several months, if not […]

See ya later, bye 2019!

By on January 2, 2020

“See ya later, bye”, is what comes to mind when I think about 2019 coming to an end. It wasn’t without its triumphs though, but the overwhelming majority of this past year has been a complete and total shit-show. Allow me to provide some context for clarity. The year started off with good intentions. In […]

The Motivation I have always had a love for the great outdoors and anything that had to do with being off-road and in the woods. I don’t recall exactly when I heard about bikepacking, but I was intrigued. It was something that I was very interested in as I am always trying to figure out […]

Land Bridge Sign

I made it!

By on April 16, 2017

On a Steel Horse I Ride…

through the eyes of the Average Joe

Thank you for visiting my blog! For many years I have wanted to start a blog, but for one reason or another, I never did. My blog will cover a wide variety of topics from the perspective of the “Average Joe”. To my mom and close friends, I’m sure I'm special, but to the rest of the world, I’m really just your normal, average guy motivated by food and boobs.

I started a blog because I enjoy writing and “telling my story”, but aside from a few requirements for college, I didn’t have an outlet. Most of my entries will be about things I enjoy doing and places I enjoy visiting. I will provide some detailed information that the “average Joe” may be interested in, but I will not fill these pages with stats and figures and other items that will put most of you to sleep. Uncle Google will gladly provide that information to you if you ask nicely.

For the most part, things will be light-hearted and fun. Feel free to get involved by leaving a comment and/or suggestion. I believe in freedom of speech so it’s okay to disagree with my opinion on pretty much anything, but please, just do it respectfully.

Cheers,

Joe
