  AUSTRALIAN CLUB LAWS LEGAL CHALLENGES Criminal lawyer Bill Potts, who is representing the Finks motorcycle club in a Queensland Supreme Court action, says the Government’s plan for a bikers-only jail could be open to legal challenge. Mr Potts says the Commissioner for Jails has the power to impose such conditions in some circumstances, but the State Government is taking that provision too far. “It seems the Government is effectively trying to force perpetual cruel and unusual behavior upon people for no good purpose,” he said.

  Two seconds later and from what seemed like far underground I could hear Charon’s voice, “It’s not what I thought; I can’t get back out!” “Empty all the water in your boots; don’t leave a drop,” shouted Hilts as he and Larry began pouring water from their own boots down the hole. “Charon’s too?” I asked as I lifted one of them up to pour. “Won’t he need this water to get back to the Styx?” The water from Hilts’ and Larry’s boots had slowed the closing of the portal. Charon’s voice sounded much closer. Behind us the town had suddenly changed into a cardboard cutout of a town. Every feature had been replicated in exact scale but in cardboard.  Click Here To See more

Sons of Anarchy star Rusty Coones(Quinn),owner of Illusion Motorcycles and guitarist for Attika 7, his wife K.O. along with the American Soldier Network are working to shoe the shoeless, give willing citizens a chance to work and donate funds thru A.S.N, to pass on to further benefit its continuing campaigns for the U.S. military wounded and recovering soldiers. Coones, an ardent supporter of military-based causes and support including numerous motorcycle fund-raising rides, and Annie Nelson, the head of the American Solider Network partnered in a Used Shoes Campaign to act as a three-fold program: to refurbish used shoes for citizens of impoverished and communities in 3rd World Countries, employ local workers by giving them a trade and repairing and refabricating donated footwear and finally, to create enough support to reach their goal of 30,0000 donated pairs as a bridge to a $10,000 donation check to aid America’s combat wounded and combat injured by using the monies to aid the American Soldier Network 7th Annual Christmas S.W.A.G. Bag (Showing Warriors America’s Gratitude) campaign. Recycle, Employ and Donate is their program’s mantra. In addition, the program will help alleviate some of the 630+million shoes that are thrown into land fills every years creating chemical compound breakdown nightmare. The Campaign hopes to help create similar programs to help not only heal those who are without but to also help heal the environment. The goal is set for 30,000 pairs of slightly worn shoes, boots, sneakers to be refurbished and sent FREE to communities and with these act of goodwill, local workers will earn a paycheck for their expertise with the end game being substantial monetary funding for the Wounded Warrior organization. Just like in Charming, a SON is working to make his home a better, cleaner and more charitable place. The Deadline for

Over 220 cars and motorcycles are set to speed down the runway of the Chase Field Industrial Complex October 25 through 27 as the Texas Mile revs up for its 10th Anniversary. What started as a grassroots motorsports event a decade ago is now one of the nation’s premier speed events for those on four or two wheels. The Texas Mile, now in its third season at Chase Field after being at a Goliad facility the previous seven years, is held twice a year, March and October. The Texas Mile is open to drivers of sports cars, motorcycles, trucks, and concept race cars. It features professional racers, novices and amateurs alike who all have a need for speed. The competitors and spectators come from over twenty-five different states and all areas of Texas to enjoy this festival of motor sports. The cities of Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, Corpus Christi, Rockport, Victoria and Beeville are represented by record holders in various classes, loyal fans and supportive sponsors. An international presence is also represented with some participants and media coming from The U.K., Taiwan, Dubai, Chile, Mexico and Canada. THE CONCEPT IS SIMPLE: DRIVERS LINE UP and GO AS FAST AS THEY CAN TO OBTAIN a TOP SPEED in ONE MILE. THE GOAL? Try to top the Mile’s record of 263.3 mph or at least be the fastest car, truck or motorcycle in their vehicle’s class or just to achieve their personal best. A Ford GT topped the record with a mph of 267 in March and he is back to ensure this potential new record remains standing. He has other competitors back to battle for Texas Mile supremacy. Motorcycle fans can see some of the fastest people on two-wheels. 5-Time motorcycle land speed record holder, Valerie Thompson (A woman on

  BikeFest Returns To Las Vegas For Its 13th Edition, With A Twist New this year was headliner entertainment, a killer contemporary art show, and vendors peddling the fleshy wares that have made Sin City famous. Also noted—a growing Big Wheel trend in bike building. Super-sized front wheels reaching cartoonish heights were hung on baggers, sometimes paired with super-fat rear tires and making the most pragmatic of bikes less than practical. In previous years, the BikeFest sent attendees down the Vegas Strip for their amusements, offering only local live music under a makeshift tent. The event has taken a step toward major rally status by inviting Foghat, Blue Oyster Cult and rising country star, Joe Nichols, to perform on a new main stage. SEE MORE AT  

Pope Francis has donated his Harley Davidson motorcycle to be sold to raise money for a hostel and soup kitchen that serves Rome’s homeless. “It is a precious gift that has once again made us happy in feeling the closeness of our bishop to the poor of the Church of Rome. We are deeply grateful to Pope Francis for this,” Msgr. Enrico Feroci, the director of Caritas Rome, said at an Oct. 12 press conference. The sale of the motorcycle will fund the renovation of Caritas’ Don Luigi di Liegro Hostel and Soup Kitchen at Rome’s Termini station. The two projects have operated since 1987 to help relieve the suffering of about 1,000 people every day, Caritas Rome reports. Msgr. Feroci thanked Pope Francis on behalf of everyone who will benefit from “this act of hospitality and solidarity.” He assured the Pope that the poor will continue to pray for the “precious work that he is doing in the vineyard of the Lord.” The Harley Davidson Motor Co. presented two of its motorcycles and a biker jacket to Pope Francis in June, when Rome hosted the 110th anniversary celebration of the iconic American motorcycle. On June 16, the Pope blessed about 800 bikers and their rides in St. Peter’s Square.
