Weed pens are becoming increasingly popular as an effective way to vaporize cannabis and its derivatives. If you’re curious about the potential of using a weed pen, it could make your day-to-day experience smoother and more enjoyable. Not only are they discreet, but they are also incredibly easy to use and portable. Simply pick from various strains according to your need or desire, load your cannabis into the chamber, hit the button, and you’re ready to go! Thanks to this convenience, more people are embracing the idea of using weed pens in their everyday lives to quickly escape from reality without any mess or fuss.
1. Create ArtWeed pens have become a popular way for many to experience the benefits of cannabis in an easy, discreet manner. With their versatility, modern vape pens also create an opportunity to create art.
This has led to a growth in what is known as “Vape Art”–a blend of fashion and functionality with larger-than-life vapor clouds being sculpted into shapes and designs. With weed pen technology evolving daily, more and more people are expected to enter this unique part of the cannabis culture to create art with vape pens––drawing on inspiration from new sources and manifesting that inspiration into something visible in real-time.
Weed pens give users an alternative to traditional smoking and are discreet, easy to use, and can even provide a new way of expressing creativity. One great way to get creative with weed pens is using them as an aromatherapy tool.
This means using their various aromatic blends for essential oils to help combat discomfort or give off a refreshing scent after a tiring day. The vast movement of smoke from the device’s wand tip could act as a great means for aromatherapy relaxation, allowing users to revitalize their senses and calm their minds as needed.
All in all, weed pens offer several possibilities to explore to find something new and exciting that works best for you.
Smoking weed pens isn’t just a fashion statement anymore, it can be used to add unique scents to your clothes that last all day. This unique vaping technique releases fragrances and oils into the air, which can be easily trapped in textiles.
It’s an easy process and doesn’t require extra effort — just take a few puffs and pass the weed pen through the fabric, such as t-shirts or pants. This intriguing trend, paired with everyday functionality, provides an innovative experience that everyone should have a chance to try out!
The relaxing atmosphere, quality fragrances, and lasting scent make it worth putting in some effort to get creative with how you use your weed pens.
The creative possibilities of weed pens are endless and can be adapted to fit any lifestyle. If you want to get creative, one way to do that is with the ancient art of perfume crafting. With a vape pen, you can use scents extracted from cannabis plants to make a unique fragrance for yourself or somebody else.
While this might sound complicated, it doesn’t have to be! All you need is a weed pen and essential oil. After performing simple steps like steeping and blending, you’ll have your own potent, aromatic perfume. Creating your DIY perfume is an unforgettable and innovative experience that can help you stand out in any crowd.
Vaping weed pens has become a distinct hobby even among home decor enthusiasts. With just a few subtle changes to your regular vaporizer routine, you can now scent your home and find refuge in the engaging aromas of marijuana.
Start by investing in high-quality weed-infused oil cartridges that replace your traditional flavors. Keep your vaporizer temperature low during inhalation for maximum results. As you vape, the micro-doses enable naturally generated aromatic molecules to travel across your living spaces, filling them with the desired fragrance that lingers on for hours.
The play of aromas emitted through vaping creates an interesting sensory environment and is an ideal way to start a relaxing evening when coupled with soothing music.
Nowadays, more and more people are looking for creative ways to bring the beauty of nature into their homes. One unexpected way to do this is with herb-filled weed pens. These pens are filled with fragrant herbs like lavender, rosemary, and chamomile, providing a pleasant scent in whatever room the pen is placed.
Not only do these plants smell great, but they also make a great decorative item that adds a natural touch to any space. Whether stored on or near a window to catch the sun in the afternoon or proudly displayed on a shelf or dresser, herb-filled pens will freshen up any room or office.
Weed pens provide a convenient way to consume cannabis without being encumbered by the paraphernalia associated with traditional consumption methods like bongs or papers. However, due to innovations in the cannabis industry, it is important for smokers and merchants to get creative with weed pens to ensure they stay ahead of the trends and competitors.
With an ever-increasing number of companies entering the space, brands that can offer something unique and interesting stand out more than those that don’t. Creative designs, interesting product names, and unique packaging all help set one weed pen apart. Getting creative with these aspects can help consumers decide which brand they want to pick up next.
Weed pens, also known as vape pens, are a vaporizer that allows users to inhale variations of cannabis concentrates. Depending on your location, these devices’ possession and sale can vary significantly in legality. In the US, possessing weed pens in 33 states for medicinal purposes and in 11 states for recreational use is legal. Additionally, certain types of cannabis, such as CBD, may be legally purchased even if recreational marijuana is not yet legalized in the state. However, it is essential to always check your local laws before purchasing any marijuana product or device, as laws can change quickly and without warning.

Harley-Davidson has confirmed rumors and revealed 2023 X 350 in China. It goes without saying that the X 350 is a bike that marks a new milestone for Harley’s history. It’s their first foray into the sub-500cc segment in the modern era and the first two-wheeler to be crafted by their Chinese partner, QJ Motor.
Retro flair is prominent by the round instrument console, mirrors, and headlight shape, while the aerodynamic and brawny radiator shrouds, as well as the flat-track-inspired tail section, exude a distinctive charm. Interestingly, unlike Harley’s traditional cruisers, the X 350 is entirely devoid of chrome, further adding to its unconventional, surprisingly sporty appeal.
It has mid-controls, a low handlebar, and a tall 32-inch seat height that puts the rider in a more neutral position instead of the usual foot-forward, laid-back posture. A basic digital-analog instrument cluster reflects the fact that this bike was designed with a budget in mind.
H-D X350 is powered by a 353cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine borrowed from previous models in QJ Motor’s lineup. Producing 36 horsepower and 22.8 pound-feet of torque, the chain drive is matched with a six-speed manual gearbox.
Its recognizable fuel tank stores 13.5 liters.
Keep in mind that this motorcycle is exclusive to China and costs approximately $4,793. This is less than comparable motorcycles in the 300 to 400 cc category.
However, the X500 may be aimed at beginner market in USA and would be based on Benelli Leoncino. (Benelli being owned by QJ). It is expected that the Harley-Davidson will launch the X500 first in China and other Asian markets before bringing it home to USA and probably to Europe as well.
It’s Not All Bad
Hey,

At Black Hills it snows for a couple of days, then bada-bing the sun breaks and it blows my mind every time. I believe I’ve made some serious progress, while stumbling from time to time. I should have a report completed next week.
Hit the gun show in Deadwood. Packed with vendors, it was a kick looking for a hunting rifle.
A big 45 flathead fan asked about the Bonne Bell and I found the feature from Cycle Source. I’m waiting for a report on the new engine from Departure Bike Works
Okay, so let’s relax and watch carefully as the world changes.

Bike Week 2023 rolled into Daytona Beach and the surrounds for the 82nd time.
Daytona and MotoAmerica have joined forces to host the Daytona 200 this year. Riders from all over the world participate in “America’s Most Historic Motorcycle Race” that moved from the beach/road course to Daytona International Speedway in 1961.
If you keep an eye on yourself you can see your moods change and why.
I’m going to cruise over to Cabana Dans next week. I need to cover his final pieces for his restored 1914 H-D Twin before they head to Tim the Flat Earth pinstripper in Spearfish, SD. I’ll sneak into Tim’s shop and shoot the action.
I’ve made serious progress on the VL, XA, FL-5. We made a set of pipes. Next week I will make controls and bring you a complete report.
I received a bicycle GPS speedo for the Salt Torpedo. Snowed the other day and might snow tomorrow. The Redhead is out finding a chunk of metal I can machine for the Knucklehead, so if I’m stuck inside I can still make progress.
I’m working with the Deadwood Historic Society on fixing up the basement under the Bullock Hotel. They want to go with a Vice theme, so I suggested this print of Kat Von D with my touring chopper built with Jesse James.
Join the MRF and stay up on the action, or keep coming back to Bikernet for weekly reports. We will fight for the truth forever.

Almost a decade ago, the Motorcycle Riders Foundation (MRF) began outreach to motorcycle clubs to find common ground on key legislative items. An MRF board seat, titled Director of Sustaining Member Motorcycle Clubs, was created and that seat is held by Russell Radke. Part of Russell’s mission is to educate the motorcycle club community on what the MRF is working on in D.C. and how our efforts impact all riders.
The National Council of Clubs (NCOC) has, for the past several years, invited the MRF to participate in its meetings to foster that dialogue. Last weekend, leaders of the MRF attended the February NCOC meeting in St. Louis, Missouri. The MRF was represented by Kirk “Hardtail” Willard (MRF President), Fred Harrell (Director of Conference & Events), Russell Radke (Director of Sustaining Member Motorcycle Clubs), Seven Cassel (Membership Director) and Rocky Fox (Government Relations). Also in attendance was ABATE of Wisconsin Legislative Director, Steve Panten.
Four different presentations involved an MRF or ABATE member sharing their views on motorcycling and legislative action. Hardtail gave a presentation on the “The Future of Motorcycling in America.” Rocky spoke on the MRF’s recent victories on profiling in D.C. Seven discussed how best to unite independents and MCs. Steve gave a case study on a recent summit held in Wisconsin between ABATE and motorcycle clubs in the state.
The weekend was filled with lively debate and great questions. The MRF thanks the NCOC and the club community for their hospitality and willingness to work together on issues we all care about.

Amazing Bessie spent 60 years in the saddle, aboard 28 different motorcycles
by Ann Ferrar
Ann Ferrar, author of “Hear Me Roar: Women, Motorcycles and the Rapture of the Road,” considers Bessie Stringfield one of her life’s greatest inspirations. Ferrar spent time with Ms. Stringfield during Bessie’s golden years, and thus a friendship blossomed between two women riders of different generations and very different life experiences. Ms. Stringfield was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2002.
In the 1930s and 1940s, my friend Bessie Stringfield took eight long-distance, solo rides around the country in the style of the old gypsy tours. Bessie dismissed the scolding of relatives who said that “nice girls didn’t go around riding motorcycles” and she became estranged from them.
