Date men from United States / California / Tracy, 52 year old

Date someone special from United States. Patiently searching for that balance of intelligence and beauty, adventurousness and subtlety, the desire to travel equal to that of staying home, common interests with the not so common ones. That perfect partner, lover, companion and friend for me.
I know the kind of woman I'd like to meet and grow old with and the jury continues to be out on if this is the right way to find her, but I guess online dating like a lot like playing the lottery, you can't win if you don't play, so I'll keep buying tickets!
Monogamous, a little sarcastic at times, active, fit and financially stable with no debt, own my own home, have a good job, no drama in my life and possessing serious cooking skills. Can only be called a "player" when sitting at a Blackjack table and believes success translates into how happy and content you are in your life, not how many zero's you have in your checkbook, the size of your house or the amount of material possessions. I say what I mean and mean what I say and never....well very rarely, sugar-coat anything. I know the meaning of the word "commitment" and understand that communication, honesty, trust and fidelity are the keys to a happy and long lasting relationship.
Classic rock is music of choice, not feeling the country or rap thing. Enjoy camping once in a while, cruises, sporting events, riding the dirt bike, comedy clubs, water sports, Monterey...especially for the Moto GP, weekend getaways and/or rides, movies, gambling, Street Vibrations in Reno, concerts, and hitting any tropical beach. I work out at least 4 times a week, so would like to find someone who puts in as much effort as I do, so perhaps we could go to the gym together or play racquetball at times. Quit smoking 16 years ago, so that would be a deal breaker.
Finding “Chemistry" is what we all want and should go without saying, but is definitely easier said then done. Unfortunately, in many profiles the word "chemistry" is often misused for the word "attraction". Attraction is immediate, chemistry is discovered.
I would love nothing more then to have that special woman in my life to spoil sometimes that is past most; if not all; the drama and lives close enough to be able to get together other then just weekends so that the relationship doesn't become one-dimensional. She should want a relationship, not need one and be able to keep up with my adventurous nature, eagerness to go places and be willing to ride with me occasionally so we could enjoy some motorcycle related activities together. I may be alone, but I'm not lonely and as much as I'd like to find her I know it's better to be alone then with the wrong person.
That being said, the search continues....
Relationships aren't always easy and no one ever said they were supposed to be. You have to want them to work and be able to make concessions because anything worth having is worth working for. We're all going to have some sort of baggage at this point in our lives and that's to be expected, as long as it's just a carry-on!
My daughter is on her own, my son just joined the Army and I'm at the "my time" chapter in my life. Just missing someone to share it with that for some unknown reason has become so elusive. I always have been and always will be, a one-woman man who's searching for that one woman who shares a mutual attraction, is fun to be with, wants to travel and is willing to work towards what I would hope to be, a last commitment.
