The Beginning

We are a husband (Matt) and wife (Brandy) who ride together. Well…. I (Matt) ride and she sits back and is the ultimate Passenger Princess. It has its advantages though; she feeds me snacks while we roll down the road and I do my best to make sure she is comfortable on the back, but that doesn’t always work out. Her primary responsibility is to take photos of the scenery as we pass by but that only happens when she isn’t napping or on her phone.

I started Bad Attitude on 2 Wheels as nothing more than an Instagram page to share pictures and video clips of our rides around North Dakota. We ride solo because we are not interested in being on anyone else’s schedule or going to do a bunch of shit we are not interested in. That’s not to say we won’t ride with groups but they have to fit with what we are interested in. There is no telling where you will see us, we could be cruising the county roads, flying down the interstate, or rolling with a group during a charity ride. Because we have regular jobs we usually do most of our riding on the weekends, which might be a 50-mile ride or a 200-mile ride, it all depends on how we feel when we hit the road. This blog was started because I suck at making and editing videos even though I have an Insta 360. So I figured YouTube was out of the question, at least until I figure it out.

So, why call it “Bad Attitude on 2 Wheels?” mostly because life has a way of putting me in a bad mood. I am easily irritated in large groups of people, I think most people can’t drive, the oilfield life takes a toll on me, and my kid pisses me off constantly.

So, we hope you will enjoy this journey with us, and if we are for you and you like our content GREAT! But if not that’s ok too, just move along and keep your opinions to yourself because no one around here gives a shit!
