Hey, From time to time I send Tony Sanfelipo, investigator for Hupy and Abraham, article notions, mostly about freedom and legislation. Recently while talking to the Redhead of Redheads, she mentioned a new Portland ordinance. It required you to scrape or steam all the labels off any glass jars you plan to recycle. Keep in

Hey, I’m reading the Last Lecture again, by Randy Pausch. Dying of cancer at a rapid rate he was asked to give a Last Lecture speech at Carnegie Mellon University. His book is short and incredibly inspirational. I think I needed it. I read it a couple of years ago and sent copies to lots
INSPIRATIONAL SUNDAY POST for October 25, 2015 Read More »
Hey, Get this. Life is nuts. The MIC wants to take over a dealershow/aftermarket show. Hillary Clinton wants to pass more gun laws, but doesn’t mention dealing with the mentally ill. China is expanding into the Pacific. Russia is expanding and fighting in the Middle East again. Didn’t they learn from us? Oregon passes laws

Hey, I’m trying to shift my focus. Focus is the key. I’m trying to teach a couple of kids about focus. One is five and the other is 25. One is just starting school and the other only focuses on getting high. I’m trying to get them to understand how important focus is. I remember

Hey, I’m confused and frustrated today. I’m sure you face similar situations. I have a good friend who doesn’t trust our government. He doesn’t pay tickets, his registration fees, or even fix his busted vehicles. He’s not a dummy, but he just doesn’t give a shit. Just ran across another guy who is doing the
CONFUSED SUNDAY POST for October 4th, 2015 Read More »
Hey, How do you feel today? I’m sorta on edge. I’m prepping for the run to Vegas BikeFest. Did you know the Chinese are planning to build a high-speed train from Los Angeles to Vegas. That could be the shit and we could dodge airports. The ride to Vegas primarily involves one fucking freeway, the

Hey, Life is nuts, but bikers are cool, creative, adventuresome, and love freedom. Too bad the rest of the world can’t find the way. I read about Buddhism from time to time. It soothes my heart and helps when I get wound up with too much bullshit. It’s not a religion, but a philosophy. Here’s
THERE’S A WAY BIKERNET SUNDAY POST for September 20th, 2015 Read More »
Hey, Interesting times. I was just about to write something and my politically correct, chickenshit meter started to ping me. I’m hesitant to write about terrorism, yet it surrounds us. I’m squeamish about writing about religions; don’t want to piss anyone off. It’s difficult to write about science, history, race, you name it. I suppose
9/11 TRIBUTE BIKERNET SUNDAY POST for September 13, 2015 Read More »
Hey, There’s a strange philosophy abounding around the world. I find it completely bullshit on one side and obvious to the point of absurdity on the other. It’s the core of the Code of the West and the media and many governments don’t get it. The French terrorist is the most recent example. This guy

Hey, Hang on, Choppers are back! I get such a kick out of this industry and folks who attempt to make a mountain out of a mole hill, especially today. Today shit changes in the blink of an eye. You virtually can’t say anything for certain. Of course, that makes it damn tough on marketing

Hey, This is a good one. I’m in the middle of so many things I don’t know which way to turn, but it’s all good. Or I hope they all turn out good. We are working on a deck on the side of the building, trying to get the Redhead moved in, scrambling on several

Hey, What the hell? Here’s the last report from Ray Wheeler, Bikernet Performance editor, on the condition of the salt in Bonneville, for the Bonneville Motorcycle Speed Trials August 29th to September 3, “The salt looks like a go.” Actually the team is dragging the course today. It rained again Friday. The mud is gone

Hey, Life has turned into scrambled eggs. We seem to be flying from one event to another, but in a sense it’s all good. We’ve got lots of wild Sturgis reports heading your way. Rogue, the new/old BikernetBaggers Editor is on the case hard. Hang on. Let’s hit the news, I need to make an

Incredible, I have a boatload to tell you, but first an apology. The Redhead of Redheads has convinced me to stay connected, while on the road. So in the future I will contact my computer Guru, longshoreman, Chuck about an I-pad or something, so I can stay in touch and work with Lisa on the

Hey, Bandit pushed off for Sturgis and left me in charge. We’ll make this brief so we can get on with the day. Hang on! I woke up with a random song in my head. I was planning to get out on the road with better music blaring to drown out

Plus, we always support Michael

Hey, It’s a riot how life changes so quickly. A lot of this rapid-fire decision making comes with our multiple communication devices, good and bad. You could be all set to go in one direction for six months, then presto everything changes. I try to follow a couple of simple mantras: One is never give
HIGHLY SENSITIVE SUNDAY POST for July 12th, 2015 Read More »
Hey, We have daunting questions chasing us for many reasons. Two political basketballs could save this country, so should, would we, could we make them happen. One is our medical system. Should we turn it over to Medicare, eliminate insurance, unless you want it, and save the country trillions, annually? Tort reform is the next

Hey, I’m sorta under the weather. I caught a Mung cold somewhere between Charleston, SC and Los Angeles and it kicked my ass, almost. I missed the Born Free Weekend, but you will see various reports. The discussion continues with comparisons to the Smoke Out and comments from Born Free. A younger rider felt there

Hey, I read the Week magazine for the news because they make a point to give you several slants on any issue. They screwed up this week when they reported on motorcycle gangs (clubs) and only relied on one source: Cook, a gang investigator. Of course he’s going to tell them only awful shit. He

Hey, I’m confused this morning and so are the Bikernet Security dogs. When dogs act strange I wonder about earthquakes. They sense these things. I’m on a Cycle Source deadline wrapping up the news.

Hey, It’s overcast today and a handful of the local gang are going to cut a dusty trail for a new adventure today. There is never a lack of new cultural opportunities in Los Angeles. My mother was a big one for finding the new and creative. If it wasn’t an art exhibit, it was
