Brake, Bite, Breathe.

A journey of rest stops, meals, and mental resets.

This is more than just a blog about motorcycles and food — it’s about finding peace between the miles. I’m Dom, a new-ish rider hitting the road to clear my head, chase new bites, and reset my mind.

Turns out, some of the best rides start with no expectations and end with sore muscles, a full stomach, and a clearer head.

Bridges, Bald Eagles & Burgers: A Cold Ride to Blackwater

A morning ride across the Bay Bridge led us deep into the still beauty of Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, where bald eagles soared and marshlands whispered. It was my first ride with Captain Crunches, and between the unexpected reflections on fear, a peaceful stop at one of Maryland’s hidden gems, and a burger-and-stout finale at RAR Brewing, this ride packed more than just miles. Sometimes, it's the short rides that leave the deepest tracks.
