Hey, I’m probably in Wyoming heading to Sturgis. The clan is taking over for me, while I’m on the road. Thanks to all the readers and staff who are holding it together, while I drink all the whiskey between Barstow and Deadwood. Gotta get there somehow. A big Indian is chasing me.   Ride Free

  Hey, Are you packing for Sturgis? It’s that time of the year to make our annual pilgrimage to the badlands. Along the road we finally have time to think without a myriad of distractions.

  Hey, There’s a secret. Another challenging week on the home front. I was told by the city to call for an inspection and they would arrive within 24 hours. I called on Monday. No one has called or come over, yet. Now, I could look at this from several perspectives. The Secret tells us

Hey, I watched the 4th of July celebration at the Capital, amazing. We need a slice of this stuff once in a while to offset all the negative media. We do live in an amazing country, but why is it amazing? Because it’s the land of the Free and the home of the Brave. In

Hey, This week was packed with major accomplishments on all fronts, and it’s not over yet. I believe we made major strides on our building. We now have a Certificate of Occupancy in the works. I refined the breather on my bottlecap engine, replaced the plugs and ordered a new headlight sealed beam. Another test

Hey, I’ve discussed not giving up on anything, including the 5-Ball factory racer, and I’ve seen success. I went to Zack’s houseboat last weekend and we talked about motorcycles and chasing mechanical problems. A small electrical glitch in the headlight triggered his circuit breaker and killed the bike. I’ll dig into my headlight. You never

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.

  Hey, This week has been beyond interesting. All the bottom line goals were almost realized. I talked about Not Giving Up, and you can’t. This week held examples.

  Hey, Here we go. This is one of those days. I’m not sure where to start. I’m excited and tenuous. This year put me in the middle of a whirlwind. I was attempting to finish my most recent book. It’s a crossroads endeavor. I want it to be the best book I ever wrote,

Hey, About Freedom. We seem to live in a society admonishing Freedom as a thing of the past. I had a conversation with Dennis Manning. The EPA told him point blank that they are controlling everything that rolls, and ultimately custom motorcycles had to be apart of the mix. So, why isn’t it the other

Hey, This is proof the world is nuts. The Panama Papers proved that I have no money in any offshore accounts or even here. Have you seen the documentary on Netflix about the Ukraine in 2013 and the kids fighting for freedom. That was just three years ago and they lost lotsa lives fighting the

Hey, I’m confused today. A brother of mine reminded me of his mantra, “We are facing constant and expanding regulation. We need to adapt to it.” I can’t. Maybe I’m not bright enough to read all the daunting fine print. Here’s a terrible example of government deliberate confusion. In Newport Beach, California you must go

Hey, I’ve noticed and was challenged by a trend of late. I spotted shops selling their wares using words like culture, markets, millennia, art, and such.

Hey, This news is action-packed and the Bikernet Headquarters are action central. We are still grappling with the city, filling out another form for consideration by the high command.
