The Atlantic

Drove out to Provincetown on Cape Cod and took a little dip. Provincetown is a not so little beach town with way too many tourist for my liking but it would probably be a nice place to stay for a weekend.

 

Drove out to Race Point Beach. Riding gear is not the best thing to bring to the beach!

Riding to Maatapoisett

 
 
I kinda wanted this to be a nuclear power plant because I've never seen a working one plus it would create more drama for one of my photos. But after some quick research by Amy, found out it wasn't. Seeing the giant cooling towers was awesome though. Wish I could've stepped up next to one and seen how big they were.

 

Leaving NYC Monday morning

This guy was great. We were going to stay with Angie Hughes on Sunday night before leaving Monday, in not the best part of town. We drove by his studio where his door was open with a motorbike parked out front. It was not more than 50ft from Angie's place. I didn't want to park our bikes on the street that night so I turned around and asked to see if he'd store our them for the night. He was more than happy to.

Super nice guy and a metal fabricator. Those of you in PDX might know my interest in metal. He does great work too. awsfabrication.com

 

Last morning in New York

Staying with Amy's friends while in New York was great. They were all so welcoming and fun that it made it hard to leave. This was taken at Angie Hughes' place the last morning in New York.

My thanks also goes out to Chris Michael and Andrew for letting me stash my stuff at they're place. They were awesome!

Emily was also great for putting me up in her place. What a wonderful group of friends Amy has made in during her time in the East Coast.

Pork bunzzz. Thanks Erin!

 

This wall art caught our eyes on the way out. Shiny. I think it was made from circle pieces hanging from threads.
