The Weekend Roundup

Hey, Life is nuts. Just turn on the television. There’s a side of me that wants to ride into Arizona and hide in the rocks from all the bullshit and infighting. I’m just an old biker, but to me it’s all easy. Freedom works. If both sides would put freedom first they would come to […]

Hey, I took my grandson to the Long Beach Swap Meet today, that’s why the news is running late. We didn’t find all the parts we needed for his ’05 Dyna repairs, but I did buy a beautiful new Kraft Tech Rigid frame. Do I need another frame, oh hell no. It’s nuts, but what

Hey, This is an interesting day. I’ve been watching CSPAN, which covers the actual hearings and debates.

Hey, Life gets more strange by the second. With the more we learn the more we question. We now know how long the universe has been around and life, as we know it takes up but a spec of that history. So, when you’re really pissed off at your ol’ lady, or you’re motorcycle isn’t

Hey, A reader sent me a tough comment today about the news. He didn’t like the politics. I would like to know which politics he doesn’t like, helmet laws, Trump, or Climate Change? Believe me, and I said it the other day, I would rather chase redheads, whiskey and ride choppers than talk about politics

Hey, I’m coming up on a challenge. I’m working on a panel discussion about emissions for the V-twin Expo next week in Cincinnati.

Hey, Life is super nuts as we head into the Holidays. Monday I hope to roll over to Bennett’s Performance for the wrap up of the Yelvington reverse installation on Jasmine’s 2015 Street Glide. Then, if I’m lucky the girls will start to roll in for our Holiday celebration and the party will start. WOMENS

Hey, The holidays are flying at us and they don’t feel the same. I held a memorial for my late 94-year old ma last week and it may turn a corner in my life. I have always ducked tradition. I don’t go to Sturgis every year. I don’t go to any particular Xmas party or

Hey, How much of life is a roll of the dice, or fate. Of course, in order to test fate you must roll the dice or play the game. We feel very fortunate around the headquarters. We have succeeded in building a pure unrelenting motorcycle nirvana. We do whatever we want, whenever we want. Our
