Day Two – Chugchilan to Salinas

On December 4, 2016 By Jim Porrata
At the end of the first day of our trip, I have to admit that I got in bed thinking there was absolutely no way I would be in riding condition again by 7am the next morning. However, when my alarm went off at 6am the following day it [...]

Day One – Leaving The City Behind

On November 28, 2016 By Jim Porrata
When we left Quito early in the morning we quickly realized that the city riding was pretty intense, and we needed to be very defensive to get where we were going in one piece.  The Monday morning traffic in Quito was crazy.  Buses, taxis, people, scooters, dogs, and motorcycles, created a [...]

Jonny Bullet’s 1980 Ironhead Bobber

On November 14, 2016 By Jim Porrata
Jonny Bullet and I have known each other a long time. We bought and worked on our first motorcycles together well over 10 years ago and were friends long before that.  Jon and I have always liked Harley’s, we like old, dirty, garage built Harley’s.  Well actually it’s better stated… that’s what [...]

Summer Time Machine – 1972 CB350

On November 14, 2016 By Jim Porrata
Summer is a fantastic time for a moto adventure, especially in New England. So this past August I took off on a 600 mile round trip from Connecticut to Maine and back. I had spent a good deal of time over last winter restoring a forgotten 1972 Honda CB350 that I picked up in [...]
