Video of the Week
VIDEO:DEVILS RIDE COMES TO DISCOVERY!
THE DEVILS RIDE sports a diverse crew but one bonded by a commitment to each other and the club. Meet Laffing Devils president Gipsy, who must balance the club's growing ranks with pressure from older members to maintain the status quo. An ex-Marine who served in Iraq, Gipsy credits the club for helping him deal with the emotional scars of war. Then there's club VP, Billy the Kid, who waits in the wings wondering if he'll have the chance to lead the Laffing Devils. And younger member Snubz breaks all the biker stereotypes with his degree in finance and a full time corporate job.

SPECTRO HAS A DIRTY SECRET
!
How about a dirty little secret... Spectro Oils make hand-crafted lubricants for your Harley-Davidson motorcycle.... Okey, another one... Synthetic oil is a lubricant consisting of chemical compounds that are artificially made (synthesized). Synthetic lubricants can be manufactured using chemically modified petroleum components rather than whole crude oil, but can also be synthesized from other raw materials. Synthetic oil is used as a substitute for lubricant refined from petroleum when operating in extremes of temperature, because, in general, it provides superior mechanical and chemical properties than those found in traditional mineral oils. Aircraft jet engines, for example, require the use of synthetic oils, whereas aircraft piston engines do not... Want to win a chopper? Go to http://www.winthechopper.com for details.

LAUGHLIN WRAP UP SUNDAY POST FOR APRIL 29, 2012What a strange year this turned into, but I won't go there, not yet. It's as if the Code of the West is being tested. This news will enlighten you as to the disparity in even government programs. We've turned into a world of control freaks, and they are now fighting to maintain their budgets, while governments sink financially. It's all nuts.

EVENT RIDDLED SUNDAY POST FOR APRIL 15, 2012I mentioned events in the news. It's nuts, and wonderful all at the same time. We've got project running in every direction, but if we tried to make it to every event, we'd never complete anything. Thankfully, the Bikernet Team is growing, so the old man can stay in the shop, while the young guns attend the RSD Grand Opening, the Illusion open house today, the Long Beach Grand Prix, Viva Las Vegas, the Michigan Freedom Party, or Bike Week in Daytona.

EASTER SUNDAY POST FOR APRIL 8, 2012Where are the eggs? It's interesting living down at the harbor away from any residential shanergary. When a holiday arrives the only indication is the lack of traffic, trucks and folks. The place is vacant for a day. So no sign of Easter Eggs, or rabbits. Although, the dogs have been killing baby possums every night. I can't figure it out. Where do they come from, and why can't they escape?
Let's hit the news. I need to finish up my son's seat pan and ship it back to Le Pera for classic upholstery. A gang of sparrows just flew into the shop. Are they looking for colored eggs?

Spring Is Sprung Sunday Post for April 1, 2012As you know attitude is everything.
