RIDE THE MOUNTAIN - COOL DOWN

102 degrees in the valley today.Take a ride, let the wind pull you in.

This new stuff is a trick. Check out the placement of the rotor.

Sensors, exotic metals, parts that won't fit on anything else.

250 two stroke madness

Plenty of Ducks

Motor Company's version of a Black bike

TR6 jewel

Stars & Stripes

Thanks Rick.

MOVIE NIGHT COMING UP

Spread the word. Come on down, go on the ride, meet a bunch of good people that have been riding for many moons. The club did this a couple of years ago at an old theater in South Pas,

unfortunately the place was shut down due to some code issues. Now that a new venue had been found, this will hopefully grow into a traditional event.

KEEP IT TIGHT

Often been warned about keeping things tight, but up until now never left any parts behind. During a recent upsurge in energy, washed the bike and found an interesting observation. Crap, it's gone.

Here it was. Nestled between the rear cylinder and the carb. Lesson learned, this one was warning. Locktite here I come.

====CHOPPER PARTY====

Working man's down fall. Yes, another good time I'm unable to make due to work. Don't be a dumb-ass like me.....GO!!!!

Rick, Go take some pictures...PLEASE.

MORE FROM BF I I I ..More pictures

I took a lot of pictures at BF III. Still sorting through the good bad and the blurry. More to come as soon as I get a few minutes to sit down with the laptop.

****** BF 3 ******

The Born Free 3 It was no doubt a top notch show. The contrast between the bikes and people at the show and those at Cooks, well i guess it's all good.

THIS WEEKEND!!!

BORN FREE

Finally here, no more O.T and time to enjoy some time off!

THE UNFORTUNATE SONS & DAUGHTERS

We often forget that while we enjoy the freedoms of working on our bikes, spending time with close friends and doing all the things we enjoy on a daily basis, there of those of us who are not as fortunate. Countless people join the military to find a way out of lives with limited resources, while those in power toy with their lives as their sons and daughters are shipped to fancy foreign universities to hide behind the vial of academia. When was the last time you read in the paper or watched on the evening news that a senator's, governor's, or any other high ranking officials kid was sent to war? The more reason we should give thanks to those who are less fortunate today. You know who you are...THANK YOU!

******THE SATURDAY RIDE******

WITH THE WEATHER WARMIN UP MORE BIKES ON THE ROAD. NICE THING LIVING IN L.A. IT'S ALL HERE.




LOTS OF COOL STUFF COMING UP - - - STAY TUNED

RIVER RUN II

Really I only had one beer.


A few diamonds amoung the sea of ape hangers and stereo systems.

One of the coolest thing I saw amoung the sea of tee-shirt vendors - Baja Iron - a conversion kit for your sporty. Check out their site.

The AVI still hosts the drags. Got to run em this time. Would have done a couple of more runs, except I lost my oil cap and sprayed oil all over the track and my tire.

LAUGHLIN 2011

IT'S A DYING EVENT.

Attendance was way down again this year. Nothing but baggers, baggers and more baggers. Still fun though to see friends we haven't seen in a while. Here's the first batch of pictures.

That's right, ..Loud Fast Rules!

Latest fashion in bagger wear..Crotchless pants.

Got a boat at home that needs some hull work? Here's a cleaver way to put that pile to good use. You turn it into a bar of course..A "BOAT BAR". Yep, some of the people there are fed up with the Run and are looking for ways to bring it back to a RUN instead of a goofy show and shine.

Still it was fun and despite a little wind the weather was great!

More to come.....

BLACK SHOVEL

Since I couldn't make it to the Hippy Killer or anything else for that matter, so the best I could do is go to Walmart and pick up the latest Horse BSC magazine *SAD*

Check out the May issue and a sweeeet shovel. You can also check out the Jockey Journal.

Here's a preview.

APRIL HAPPENINGS IN WINCHESTER

ONCE AGAIN IT'S TIME TO RIDE OUT TO WINCHESTER AND ENJOY A HOEDOWN. IT'S A NICE RIDE OUT ONCE YOU GET OUR OF THE CITY. THE BEER IS CHEAP AND THERE'S PLENTY OF SPACE TO KICK BACK AND SPEND THE DAY. NOT TO MENTION THE BIKES AND CARS THAT ATTEND ARE FIRST CLASS. THIS YEAR COLE FOSTER IS ATTENDING , HOPEFULLY BRINGING DOWN SOME OF HIS WORK - CLEAN.

PARTY DOWN ---- NOW !

WE DON'T NEED NO STINKIN CALL OFF DUTY/BACK OPS

Great pics Rick!

No helmet, no boots, no gloves, no green or red sticker, no PlayStation, NO PROBLEM!

This was our Playstation. Kids could be kids and experience how to be one with their machine. Is it a wonder why many of us who enjoyed these simple pleasures still ride.

BIKERS ARE CREATIVE

In a world where people are too self conscious and worry about what everyone thinks, or if they got the right look, blah, blah, blah. It's refreshing to see some people don't really give a crap about all that and do what ever it takes to have a little fun. Check out this add I ran across today on Craig's List, in no less the motorcycle for sale section. Don't know if the add is real but, since I myself have felt this way, I can relate to how this chap feels. What a great story this would make if you have the resources to help out.

JUNE WILL BE HERE IN NO TIME

Last year rode out to the race to check out some vintage iron and enjoy the sounds of Smile Face Down, hosted by none other that the master of good times - Meatball. You've got to check this out. If you have a dirtbike sitting in the corner of your garage that you haven't started in 20 years, now's your excuse the clean out the carb and fire-it-up. If it won't fire, be a spectator and support this event. Guaranteed to keep you bustin' up all day long.
