Current Goal

I took a trip on a slow boat to Europe but didn't get ashore. Now I'd like to try it the hard way. This time I hope to have better luck. My dream is to see Europe for a year or two and be photographed with many different motorcycles and/or their owners, before finding my way home to Nova Scotia Canada.

About This Item

Sparky

I am one of two spark plugs that came from my owner’s 1985 Harley Davidson Low-Rider. I've had many mile traveling the roads of Canada, now it is time to expand my travels.

Now is this fate or what. I am heading to Europe on the third of next month. I can hold this bug until then and I will deposit it somewhere on the Rhine.

  • Mr. Gene & Carly & Sparky Sparky was getting lonely for some company and Mr. Gene (our neighbor) agreed to go and bring over a friend. 

Sparky said "Happy Canada Day" to everyone yesterday....and today his Harley buddies were saying "Happy Fourth of July" to Sparky.
  • Sparky talks with a Friend in Pennsylvania Sparky needed some alone time with some new friends. They talked about life on the road and what it was like being in the "club".

After a while....they decided to go for a ride.
  • Sparky & Carly Carly is taking care of sparky. 
She's been very helpful so far and will help transport Sparky down south in 2 days.

Picked up Sparky and will take him on a ride across the island on our snazzy rental scooter! Wish us luck!

  • No Harleys here Not a Harley to be found. Sparky meets up with a Bermuda Full Dressed Touring motorcycle. This isn't Europe, but they drive on the left here! It feels British.
  • A row of bikes. Adding this entire row of bikes doesn't output the torque that Sparky grew up with. There's no V-Twin rumble on this island. Hopefully a vacationing European will grab him next for a trip across the Atlantic.
