In Toledo, Ohio, a little girl who allegedly is being bullied in school is getting help from some members of a biker club. Alexandria Reynolds says her daughter, 7-year-old Audrianna is having a hard time in school. The first grader at Marshall Elementary has allegedly been bullied for over a year. Alexandria tells 13abc, "It could be part of it that she is a tomboy, but who knows." One of Audiranna's favorite things to do is ride her dirt bike. It's her daughters love for motorcycles that inspired Alexandria to enlist the help of "The Punishers", a law enforcement motorcycle club in Toledo. And while they may look dark and dangerous, they're far from it. Daniel Bushey, president of The Punishers recalls, "The first thing we thought of ...

A few years ago, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) sponsored a competition where companies were challenged to come up with a compelling stealth motorcycle design. The goad was to provide ground troops with the ability to navigate through tough terrain quickly and without detection. Such a bike could also airdropped down to troops on the ground whereupon they could use it and subsequently hide it "for later retrieval." Earlier this week, at the National Defense Industrial Association's Special Operations Forces Industry Conference, two prototype stealth bikes were on full display. One bike -- The Silent Hawk -- was developed by Logos while the other bike --dubbed Nightmare -- was developed by LSA Autonomy. Both are hybrid bikes. The ...

Custom Cycle Engineering's front fork truss is a performance part that was designed to improve front end handling on Narrow Glide or Wide Glide front ends. The engineering design and sleek styling are obvious characteristics in this part. The compound arc, which sweeps upward and rearward simultaneously, imparts greater resistance to deflection, twisting and bending of the fork. The upward arch also provides additional fender clearance. The addition of large diameter holes spaced out to a maximum strength calculation helps keep unsprung weight to a minimum. Installation is very simple and the disassembly of the front-end is not necessary. These trusses are designed to bolt securely to the lower sliders. Trusses are machined out of solid billet aluminum and can ...

Hey, This has been a fascinating week. I could say it was a challenge. I could also say it was fucked. But I try to keep a constant positive attitude and my goals at the forefront of every effort. Let’s get specific. I had another meeting with the City of Los Angeles regarding my building. It was quick and direct. I spent hours trying to draw blueprints of the building to their specifications to prevent being forced to hire an architect to scan it for $2,500 to $5000. I sat with the Chief and reviewed our permit direction and one more drawing. I need a plot map. So, I have another homework assignment on my plate but we’re getting closer. ...
