By Spitfire I slept right through my alarm clock. The days have been long and the nights short. Itās beginning to wear on the entire crew. We woke to steady rain, not a welcome sight. Riders began donning garbage bags and goggles, taking last sips of warm coffee but not wanting to have to stop to use a restroom because of the additional clothing. The Motorcycle Cannonball is truly a test of both man and machine. Who will endure to the end??? Only 58 riders started out today. Currently the 5 front runners have been steady. They are on two Harley Davidsons and three Hendersons. Today we face more steep grades as we climb into the High Desert. 262 miles ...

By Spitfire There was a different energy in the air this morning. The day before had been long hot and grueling. Today we will be traveling 264 miles and will reach an elevation f nearly 11,000 feet as we cross Wolf Creek Pass in the Rocky Mountains. The person in 1st place, #13, Dean Bordigiori from California, was at the start line early making last minute adjustments. Doc, #52, who has all of his miles in for every day told me that he had lowered his gear ratio to help climb the mountain passes. The sunrise promised a beautiful day but Iām not sure anyone else noticed. Shawn Duden, #39 from a previous cannonball (the chopper guys) arrived with the ...
Read More Lawmaker Killed By Motorist, āRight Of Way Violation.ā
By Bikernet | | General Posts
Source: Abate of Michigan In recent months many advocates of mandatory helmet laws have attacked Michiganās ADULT CHOICE motorcycle helmet law passed in 2012. In these āreportsā the claim is that 40% of riders who died in fatal crashes were un-helmeted which means 60% of riders were wearing helmets. More riders died wearing a helmet than without. The real problems are UNENDORSED MOTORCYCLE RIDERS and car drivers violating a motorcyclistās right of way, by making a left turn in front of the rider. Every year since 1989 (a total of 27 years) when Michigan started keeping track of this data, 40% OR MORE of the motorcycle riders did not have a motorcycle endorsement and, were thus, riding illegally. In 2013 ...

By Spitfire After a day of rest, people were ready to get back on the road. During the ārestā day, competitors and crew worked hard on the bikes to get them read for the seven days that remain. For some it was stressful. So much to do in so little time! Engines were rebuilt, chains changes, fluids and bearing replaced. Weather cooperated, mid 80s and dry. We were in 3 hotels , non of them right next to each other. Everywhere I looked people were busy but not in a frantic way. I rode around town making a couple trips to stores to stock up on smart water, more bandages and re-stocked the first aid supplies in the support vehicles. ...
