Keep the Shiny Side Up by: Miss Reine

We use this saying often as another way of saying ride safe and come home in one piece.  We do all we can to be safe on our motorcycles; wear the right equipment, get trained, get licensed, ride sober, ride responsibly and keep an eye out for those on cell phones, texting, putting on make-up, drinking hot coffee. . . . You know what I’m talking about.  Well, I hope to bring awareness to those on four wheels to watch out for those of us on two. Continue Reading →

Idea’s of Cool by: KinG JaKe

There’s been a shift in the motorcycle culture.  Propelled not by one man but an idea.  The idea being if you don’t need it on your bike, then why have it? TV has made Indian Larry the poster boy, and we couldn’t ask for a better fit.  He is the one who brought this idea into our homes and into our culture. Almost overnight the “kustom kulture” started looking at the choppers they were creating and asking themselves why?  The bikes at this time had gotten long stretched out, and had the widest tire you could throw under the rear.  I love choppers, but people always have to take things to extremes.

Always Be Prepared By: Jan Knobbe

            It’s four a.m. and I can’t sleep because I feel spring approaching.  So many things to do, so little time.  I know it’s hard to realize it, but the days are getting long already.  For me that’s a real good thing and for you also I’m sure.  Before you know it the days will be warm enough to ride.  If your bike is not up to snuff, you’ll be stuck in your garage or sitting on the side of the road messing with it, not enjoying it.  Think about pre-maintenance now, before spring hits.  Get the edge on the procrastinators.  Think about your battery, oil change, tires (March tire specials).  You know what they are, the normal A,B,Cs of pre-flight inspection.  But enough of that.

Vegas

Jan, Reine, and Jake went to Vegas this winter and here’s a couple pics from their Trip.

Riding around Vegas this is somewhere East of the Hoover Dam.

Not a whole lot of gas stations in the desert…  Got lucky and met a biker doing road work that carry’s extra gas on his truck for all the people like me.

Enjoyed Vegas saw the sights and all that jazz. Then we went to California…

Checked out the Garage Co. in Inglewood, they do only vintage bikes, and collect plenty of memorabilia to look at for days.

On the Way back to Vegas Jan’s throttle cable broke in the middle of no man’s land. So he rode the last 150+ miles with a combo of vice grip pull throttle and cruise control. All in all a fun trip. If you want to know more just stop by the shop and ask.
