Welcome to Steel Horse Journeys, a motorcycle travel blog. Here you can travel vicariously on my motorcycle adventures throughout the US and Canada. I’ll post day-by-day stories of my travel and include maps, photos, and more.
My name is Keith. While I grew up mostly in the Bay Area, these days I call Seattle home. I work with internet start-ups, typically building specialized support and service teams. Working with fast growing companies is intense and often 24×7. Resting between these opportunities is key.
To rest, I enjoy riding my 2013 BMW R1200RT to interesting and scenic places. Together we have traveled over 75,000 miles and counting!
Here are some of my recent and/or longer motorcycle adventures:
- 2018 Ride to Beartooth
- 2018 Ride to the Dalton
- 2016 Northern States Tour
- 2015 Trip to Hyder
- 2015 Southern States Tour
- 2014 Western States Tour

It varies quite a bit. In 2014, it was about 16,000 miles. In 2015, it was roughly 22,000 miles. I expect about 12,000 miles this year.
