• Superficial Friday: The Beer Cooler Scooter  Beer. Cooler. Scooter. 3 words that alone are the stuff Frat boy dreams are made of. Together perhaps an unholy trinity that stinks of Old Man Jenkins’ front lawn being torn up, toilet papered trees and a DWI. Can 3 words so wrong together be made right? I give you – The Beer Cooler Scooter: Throw on some turn signals, [...]
• Motorcycle Photo Blog-O-Rama: Great Signs on the Road  We stumbled across this sign (okay, fine it’s graffiti) in California when the GPS routed us to a road that didn’t exist anymore. I ask you – Seriously, who doesn’t love pie? Photo Theme: Great Signs on the Road Do you wanna play Motorcycle Photo Blog-O-Rama too? Post one of your motorcycle related photos that suit [...]
• Motorcycle Travel Pictures: 6 Bridges from Away  Some people are perfectly content to live their lives in the same town, in the same city. My great aunt lived on the same street her whole life. 75+ years on the same block! I on the other hand am plagued with a nagging wanderlust. I want to be moving all the time. This often [...]
• Motorcycle Tip: Don’t Try This One At Home!  This morning I walked down the driveway in the misting rain and Kenny said “be careful,” from the front door. As I rode away, I thought to myself that it isn’t something I hear very often from him. 40 miles later, I reflected on his words as I found myself trying to pick up my [...]
• Superficial Friday: Magical Motorcycle Boots Make Your Wildest Dreams Come True!  When I got newenough.com’s email blast on Thursday it contained the news that they were offering Sidi Vortice Motorcycle boots for a mere $329. That’s nearly $150 off the original price! The catch? The white ones only. I don’t know that I could ever do white boots. I think they’re a little too storm trooper-y [...]
• “Pink” Triumph Speed Triple Motorcycle: Hot or Not?  According to Triumph, they have never made a pink motorcycle. Since the year 2000 they have however made Nuclear Red motorcycles. Which if you’re playing along at home look decidedly… pink. Something about that strikes me as very Seinfeld-y. Jerry: “It’s not a purse! It’s European!” Triumph’s website boasts: “The Speed triple is tougher than ever and [...]
• On the Road: California to Montana on an Aprilia RSV  Back in July, Novos took the time to share his plans for a week long trip from Southern California to Montana on his Aprilia RSV. Now that the trip is in the books, he is sharing his ride as a series of posts as a guest blogger on my partner site Watermelon18.com. The photos are [...]
• Motorcycle Group Riding: Leader Responsibility?  Ride Your Own Ride These words have been uttered by responsible riders the world over. Sadly these same words have fallen on deaf ears on many group rides. The ride leader sets the pace, the rhythm, the tone of the ride.  What the ride leader can’t do is control anyone else’s motorcycle. When faced with a riding [...]
• Saturday Link Love: 3 Motorcycle Blogs I Read  Sometimes you stumble across a blog and just connect with it. Maybe you like the writer’s sense of humor, admire their spirit or appreciate their writing voice. Maybe it’s something as simple as they post terrific pictures. I tend to like the motorcycle blogs that tell a personal story, be it big or small. The motorcycle [...]
• Superficial Friday: Japan’s Bosozoku Motorcycle Style  Some would say that there is no accounting for taste. I am strangely drawn to the look at photos and videos of Japan’s Bosozoku Motorcycle Gang culture.  The videos I have watched show a constant frenzy of revving noise, sparkling paint, crazy seats, ridiculous farings. All of it a strange and beautiful mishmash that I cannot [...]
