She Left Me and She’s Never Coming Back

Knowlesville Posted on July 23, 2020 by MattJuly 23, 2020
Crashed Triumph motorcycle

It’s the end of a long love affair. Today I watched as my favorite motorcycle of all time left my yard on the back of a Humboldt Towing flatbed. Even though I was getting close to saying goodbye, this isn’t … Continue reading →

Early Ride up to Route 1

Knowlesville Posted on April 28, 2019 by MattApril 29, 2019
Sprint ST

One of my springtime rituals is riding up to Route 1 in the South Fort Mountains to see my favorite wildflower patch. I usually start trying Memorial Day weekend to see if the road is even open. But this year … Continue reading →

The Final Four

Knowlesville Posted on June 7, 2008 by MattJune 14, 2019
Rose Arbor

A sunny workday for a change, so while waiting for paint coats on the house to dry I put up the last four brackets, and did some painting on the fence until I ran out of primer. So I went … Continue reading →

Roadside Cascade

Knowlesville Posted on March 12, 2007 by MattJune 6, 2019
Cascade

With the snowpack quickly melting in the heat, there were lots of cascades along the route during my ride yesterday. This one was very pretty. I only had my little Pentax with me and no tripod so I couldn’t do … Continue reading →

Highway 36

Knowlesville Posted on March 11, 2007 by MattJune 6, 2019
Highway 36

Today was gorgeous so I figured it was time to really get the Sprint ST out on the open road and test the new tires and seat out. Rode out Highway 36 all the way to Red Bluff and back. … Continue reading →

On The Road Again

Knowlesville Posted on February 11, 2007 by MattJune 3, 2019
Triumph Sprint ST

The Sprint has a new pair of shoes. I decided to try out a new brand this time, a pair of Continental RoadAttacks. They seemed to be well reviewed, and they were pretty cheap as far as motorcycle tires go. … Continue reading →

Fashion Design

Knowlesville Posted on August 2, 2005 by MattMay 20, 2019
Sprint ST

Lori made a comment while we were photographing this setup that I have quite an interesting sense of fashion. Ok, so maybe you won’t see many women dressed like this at the mall, but it’s probably closer to reality than … Continue reading →

British Maid

Knowlesville Posted on August 1, 2005 by MattMay 20, 2019
Sprint ST

I had a good weekend with the Sprint ST. Saturday I took it out to scout for locations for a photoshoot, and then Sunday we did the shoot so I got to ride it two days in a row. Pretty … Continue reading →

Horse Mountain

Sprint ST on Horse Mountain

I took the Sprint out for a ride to Horse Mountain. I was up there for two hours and had the road totally to myself. Try to find a road like that in the Bay Area! From where the bike … Continue reading →

Santa’s New Sled

Knowlesville Posted on December 18, 2004 by MattMay 15, 2019
Chelsea & Becki

We spend far more time at work than we do at home (unfortunately) so when Lori suggested we get a tree this year, I thought we should put it in our studio so we could enjoy it more. It also … Continue reading →

Spinning the Sprint

Knowlesville Posted on November 5, 2003 by MattMay 6, 2019
Sprint ST

This was a little experiment to figure out how to create a Quicktime VR object movie. I’ve created panoramas before where you spin the camera inside a room for example, but in an object movie it is the object that … Continue reading →

Covered Bridge

Knowlesville Posted on August 24, 2003 by MattApril 26, 2019
Covered Bridge

Finally, a day off after working nearly 3 weeks without one. Rewarded myself with a ride on the Sprint, even though I probably should’ve been doing yardwork or maybe working on the house. But the weather was just too nice. … Continue reading →

Lonely Sprint ST

Knowlesville Posted on July 17, 2003 by MattApril 26, 2019
Sprint ST

This was supposed to be a photo of my Triumph Sprint ST with a model posed on it. However, as it seems to be my curse, the model cancelled at the last minute. Since I had already washed it (a … Continue reading →

Time for the Sprint

Knowlesville Posted on March 30, 2002 by MattApril 11, 2019
Triumph Sprint ST

After spending the morning replacing the drive belt on the mower, and then mowing the lawn, my chores for the day were done. With it being such a nice day out, it was no tough decision on how to spend … Continue reading →

Highway 36

Sprint ST on Hwy 36

We’ve been having excellent weather the last few days, probably the best string of warm weather since we’ve moved here. Got out the shorts and t-shirts, played in the garden, and went for a lot of motorcycle rides. Greg, a … Continue reading →

Low Flying Aircraft

Knowlesville Posted on September 2, 2001 by MattMarch 29, 2019
Sprint ST

Today’s ride took Blake and I on Hwy 36 to Red Bluff, Platina Rd to Redding, and then 299 back to Eureka. Just over 400 miles of riding to end up back where we started. Hwy 36 is probably the … Continue reading →

Blake's Sprint ST

Blake, one of the guys I went to Colorado with, came up for the labor day weekend. Today we rode Avenue of the Giants, and then did the Lost Coast loop. About 140 miles to end up back where we … Continue reading →

This is Paul Masters, who has the same bike and leathers as I do. He is one of the riders from the Bay Area that I joined up with for the ride out to Colorado. Fortunately our helmets are different … Continue reading →

Knowlesville Posted on June 17, 2001 by MattMarch 25, 2019
Triumph Sprint ST

This is a group shot of most of the bikes that attended the rally. Mine just happens to be in the foreground, which means it was the most vunerable if anybody tipped one over. The line up was done in … Continue reading →
