A goodbye to my friend Jessi Combs— educator, welder and fabricator, land speed record holder, motorcycle builder, TV show host, off-road racer, Queen of the Hammers, beautiful, bad ass, intelligent woman.
Goodbye Jessi Combs- Legend, Leader, Lady
Photos from the ride yesterday to Sauvie Island and Skyline, 13 bikes… mostly vintage. If my favorite meal were smoke, today would have been perfect… I was eating it behind Alex’s bike up front. As he said, “Hope you guys liked the smell of that bel ray two stroke oil today, my wee 350 used all it’s ponies setting pace!”
I was always hesitant to go on group rides with more than 4 or 5 people because I thought logistics of riding with so many people would be difficult. But it’s amazing how seamless it is. For the most part, everyone interacted flawlessly on the road. If you wanted to pass, you passed. If you wanted someone to fall back, you signaled. It was a great experience, I’ll definitely be doing it again soon.
