My favorite time? It’s when Luna and I hit the road.

Luna’s not a pet or a person. She’s my motorcycle – 500 pounds of freedom on two wheels.

When I’m on Luna, the world shifts.

Problems shrink in the rearview mirror

The to-do list evaporates. There’s just me, Luna, and the road ahead.

the world looks different from behind handlebars. 

Luna time is when I remember why I love riding. The subtle lean into curves. The engine’s steady thrum. The scent of fresh-cut grass or pine trees hitting differently at 60 mph.

It’s meditation in motion.

My mind clears. I focus on the now. The only multitasking I do is balancing not dropping my bike with looking cool in my leather jacket.

After each ride, as I park Luna, I ask myself the same question: Which part of the road today did I like best?

The answer: The part where the road and I disagreed on where we were going, and the road won.

This philosophy of embracing the unexpected led me to write “Road Theory,” a book born from the sensation of learning to ride and falling head over heels for it. I found my voice in creating a character for whom a motorcycle wasn’t just a physical vehicle, but a portal to another realm of existence. I write about how two wheels and an engine can transform not just a journey, but the rider themselves.

Here’s to Luna time. When the ride is the destination, and the world makes perfect sense.
