Jill and me in 1967 with our first BMW motorcycle.
Here I am 40 years later, in 2007, with my 1967 Granada red BMW R60/2.


I wish to note who I am here in secular and common sensical terms for purposes of my humble website — I am Jeff Dean, an obsessed motorcyclist (according to my long-suffering wife, Jill—who is absolutely correct), a motorcyclist instructor and coach, an architectural historian, a photographer of historic buildings, and in all other ways a wandering rider on the great twisting road of life.  

I am a proud free thinker, secular humanist, and atheist, and life member of the Freedom from Religion Foundation. (Actually all believers are atheists with respect to religions other than their own. I have just completed the journey and am no longer superstitious or a believer in ancient myths.)


That's me in February 2007, above, riding a friend's 1950 R51/2. Click on the photo to go to my R51/3 web page.

Here I am in August 1967 riding the first real motorcycle I ever owned. It was a 1966 BMW R60/2. I learned about correct riding gear a bit later. Click here to read Ed Youngblood's MotoHistory article (here, a about me.
