Leather, Breeches, Boots, Bike

My partner took this photo of me at my request on Monday when I decided not to go on a motorcycle ride, and we decided to "play" instead. You saw the results of some of this "play" in my last blog post.

I really liked this photo and the image portrayed, so I thought I would post this one, as well.

Life is short: Say, "grrrrrrrr!"
