A Motorcycle Meditation

Need a bit of Zen? Even if you cannot go for a ride, just sit on your motorcycle and enjoy the energy of your many road trips that are contained within the spirit of your ride. Connect with that, have a moment of prayer time. Say a few gratitude prayers, ask for direction. Or simply be still and let the RIDE be your guide. Just a moment in the saddle, even without actual throttle motion, can still put your dreams into action and connect you with the higher power of that divine rush found in those magical wind whispering moments:

Spirit of my ride
by my divine guide
align me with that perfect truth
forever my fountain of youth.

Tra, la, la, la, love,
Sasha

Throttle Therapy

One of the greatest escapes in all the world is simply to be still while twisting the throttle. How is THAT so? Stillness in spirit. Active in body. Open in mind. Still. Active. Open. That is throttle therapy. That is stillness as you listen to the Creator that is pure truth and being open to the journey filled with opportunity and active at simply living in the moment and going with the flow. Though your schedule may be crazy with ta-dos and the like, within that schedule, there be some saddle time awaiting you. Grab some. xoSasha

A great Spring Morning

This is a great morning for the individuals who are able to ride. It's has that slight breeze that reflects refreshing
Early each morning I venture into the world with a young lady, named Spirit. Our job is to inspect the world around us, greet our neighbors, and arouse energy for the day rising around us.
As I approach my house, the neighbors either quietly greet or yell, their ' Good Morning".
then I smile to myself, when that bike rolls out of the garage, my neighborhood will all be ready for the great day ahead of us.
My day is complete, it's the journey to challenge what's ahead of me!!!!!

Introduction to the world of Blog

I am introducing myself to this world of blogging. I write a monthly article called, Danni's Times in the Ridersmag here in the province of Ontario, Canada.
The greatest advantage of my article is , it has enhanced the world of motorcycling for myself. Thru the years, I have gathered so many stories , one day, there will be a book. The day will not be here for a while yet, I know there's more stories to follow.
At the moment, we are building a community of Lady Riders, the name is, Ontario Chrome Divas here in Canada. Sisters to the home-based Florida group, Chrome Divas.
Starting out here in Canada is a little tougher than let's say the USA. It could be this is a smaller country, more spread out, the glue is just not here.
Look daily for news on what's important , not what's just there. The important factor is , the month is April and the weather beckons the body to jump on the steel stallion parked in the garage and follow the wind.
I have parked mine for today, the wind was cold, but refreshing. The ride was not long, but it was necessary. Following the wind

The roads are alive with the sound of music!

Ah! Spring is here and the roar of pipes everywhere is music to the ear. How incredible it is to see so many female motorcycle riders out there twisting that throttle and owning the road?! The sisterhood is stronger than ever before and it's a very exciting time in the culture. Receiving lots of letters from new riders who are transforming their lives on a motorcycle. Dreams are roarrring to life! Anything is possible with a rockin' throttle. Don't you just love this positive energy floating in the wind? Own that saddle time! Giant gratitude to Wil & Ed for including me in this outstanding project. I ride in one heartfelt connection with all the windsisters around the world! Start your engines! xoSasha

Hello from Cris Sommer Simmons

Hi to all of you that I know and I hope to meet those of you that I don't know.

Thanks to Edward for putting this all together and for those of you who have never met Ed, he's awesome... the real deal! We were lucky to get to meet up in Daytona, though it was a crazy, busy day. Hopefully, we can hang out again when we aren't so busy. (His daughter is a sweetheart too!)
