Girls Just Want to Have Fun

  Enjoy the camaraderie of other independent, self-reliant women. by Vicki Sanfelipo. Be the first to comment 'Rallies', 'Road Trips' and itā€™s human nature to want to belong to a group of like-minded individuals. You see many such groups in the world of motorcycling.

Brotherhood Around The World

  2007 Firefighter Harley Ultra travels from Texas to Serbia for Brotherhood. By Wild Bill. In May of 2012 even though it was very chilly at 5 AM I was riding my ā€˜07 Firefighter Harley Ultra to work for a typical 24 hour shift. The cold ride to work was worth it for the beautiful ride home after shift! During training that day I was very significantly injured ā€“ retired on permanent disability from on the job injury ā€“ and had to be brought home by ambulance. Long story short, I was robbed of my ability to ride, at least at that time and certainly not atop a heavy Ultra. As a result my bike sat outside for some time ...
