Life is so interesting. I rode over by the LA airport yesterday to attend a memorial for Paul Larquier, who once was the boss of Santee and worked for Jammer Cycle and was a member of the Jammer Cycle streamliner team.
Travis, another member of the Jammer Streamliner Team rode with me with a young engineer and bike builder. We hooked up with the family in a nice home on the east side of Hawthorn. We ate fresh made on the spot tacos and discussed Paul’s life with his daughter.
Then we rode down to a marina where several old bikers live including Harold, who was the boss of the Berdoo Hells Angels in the ‘60s. He’s 81 and living with his wife on their sailboat. We talked old times and Frankie, my grandson rode over and hooked up with us.
Travis taught Frankie how to kickstart his old Panhead. It’s strange. We’re getting very old and the kids are having kids. What’s it all mean, goddammit! Let’s hit the news. Read more.
