Just drove 6K lbs over $5K of motorcycle helmets 2x. The results were shocking (albeit unscientific at best). No flat tires to report. YouTube video later today.

I thought this tailgate was such a gimmick. I was WRONG. 10’ 2x’s a bunch of 8’ and some 4x8 sheets of ply with the tonneau cover closed. No straps needed, no plywood sheets going airborne on the highway. I do not miss my Ford F-150 even a little.

The Indian Pursuit isn’t just another touring bike—it’s been my escape, my therapy, and a reminder of why I love motorcycles. Life has thrown some challenges my way recently, and riding has been a much-needed reset.

In this video, I share why the Indian Pursuit stands out, not just as a machine but as a brand that puts people first. While every company is in business to make money, there’s a right way to do it, and Polaris has always done it right in my eyes.

I also break down my long-term thoughts on the Pursuit and how it compares to the Harley Road Glide, covering:

✅ Handling & Weight Distribution – Why Indian still does it better
✅ Suspension & Comfort – One brand is ahead of the other
✅ Reliability – My experience with the Road Glide check engine light
✅ Harley vs. Indian Identity – Why switching brands isn’t losing yourself
✅ Evolution vs. Revolution – Is Harley really catching up?

I own a Harley and love it, but Indian deserves more respect, and the Pursuit is a serious contender in the touring world.

I was recently let go from Autodesk. Some might ask, “Why share something so personal?” Because integrity and transparency have always been at the core of who I am. (Video link below.)

At Autodesk, I focused on what I did while I was there, not just what I did for the company. My reputation in the industry has always been my priority and at times I identified with our customers more than I did my tech co-workers. Industry professionals trusted me because of who I was, not because I presented workflow charts where every road conveniently led to our software. Technology is a great tool, but it’s not a silver bullet. In construction, “You can’t bu****it a bu****itter” is said with pride. I understand and embrace this because I embrace the people.

I was hired as a Technical Solutions Executive for construction, but shortly after, Autodesk merged its construction and design sales orgs. I made it clear these are not overlapping skill sets. Simply speaking up instead of offering a canned “I am super excited” response marked the beginning of the end for me.

When my time at Autodesk ended, I had a choice: take a clean exit or retain my ability to speak openly. The decision was clear.

To all of those on the inside who reached out after I was let go, I thank you. It meant more than you know.

If you’re in construction and evaluating operational software, I’d love to connect. My passion has always been bridging the gap between technology and real-world ex*****on.

Dog attacks in neighborhoods are serious. Leashing dogs is incredibly important especially if they are described as ferocious or problematic. I share the ongoing saga with my neighbor and his off-leash dogs that have turned a peaceful neighborhood into a stressful and dangerous environment for my family. I’ve always believed in a “live and let live” mentality, but after multiple incidents involving his aggressive dogs, I’ve been forced to take a stand. This isn’t just about the drama—it’s about the importance of empathy and consideration for those around us. I hope this video sheds light on how small actions can have big impacts, and maybe, just maybe, help others in similar situations find a path to resolution. If you’ve ever dealt with difficult neighbors or have your own story to share, let’s talk about it in the comments.
