Hey, I don’t know shit about Syria issue, except for what the Frogman said. The Frogman spent 10 years in the middle east training troops. He said to stay away from Syria. It’s a no-win. I’ve read several reports and watched Senate hearings. So here’s the list: 1. We are being asked to attack one […]
FROM SYRIA TO LAS VEGAS – SUNDAY POST for September 15, 2013 Read More »
Hey, This is the first of the new Sunday Post regime. It was 90 degrees in my shop today, and I was going to say that Bikernet was taken over by a massive Chinese conglomerate of corporations. They own half the world. But Bikernet would still be assembled in the United States. And we would

Marko fished off the dock under the Vincent Thomas Bridge. It spanned the wide channel between San Pedro and Terminal Island, which once housed the Long Beach Naval Base and still was home to the Terminal Island Federal Prison. Bandit sat on a rusting galvanized bucket and tossed a line in the briny water. “Just

Hey, This is an odd Sunday, with brothers and sisters at the Bub meet lining up to set world land speed records. Only about 400 folks scramble out to this event as builders, pilots, spectators, sponsors, staff, and journalists. It’s an vast place where every team tries desperately to make a difference in an amazing
BOOT RIDE/BUB’s BONNEVILLE Sunday POST FOR AUGUST 25TH, 2013 Read More »
Hey, This Sunday Post is a kick. It’s just fun and thought provoking. Shit, I need to hurry. I’m stripping a massive brass porthole for the front of the building. Kyle and I grappled with tools, the bead blaster, sanders, you name it. The best tool turned out to be a series of Scotch Bright

Hey, So do I call this the Bad Cop Sunday Post? I know some bros who hate cops. I run the bad cop news because of the historic battles between bikers and cops, but I run ‘em sorta tongue in cheek, since I believe cops have the toughest jobs on the planet, and are forced

SPEAKING OF DISCOVERIES—Bikernet Australian Correspondent recently toured northern California in search of rare motorcycles and exotic tattoo talents. Here’s her report: Whilst travelling north toward san fran, stopped at a rest stop, I saw these two bikes parked. I could not resist the call of the chrome or the tinkling song of the cooling engines, so

Hey, I’m getting a late start. A magnificent redhead from my past wandered into my life recently and spent the night. We had a lot of catching up to do and ate breakfast of Mole enchilidas this morning at the little Mexican restaurant up the street, Maya’s. This small restaurant in an old brick building,
RIDE ON SUNDAY POST FOR JUNE 23, 2013 Read More »
Hey, Life is absolutely amazing. There are so many opportunities out there. Remember the too-cool bobber Kent, at Lucky Devil Metal Works, in Houston built for Nyla. She traded it for a floating restaurant on the Los Angeles Harbor. She is now having the time of her life running a floating barge, and making
MEMORIAL DAY SUNDAY POST FOR MAY 26, 2013 Read More »
Hey, It seems quiet today. Hopefully it’s not the lull before the storm. Actually, two days ago it was 90 degrees, today it will hit 68, and 66 and rain tomorrow, so the storm is coming. I rode the Mudflap Girl to my mountain to say a prayer for my first wife. She’s dying of
CALM BEFORE THE STORM SUNDAY POST FOR CINCO DE MAYO 2013 Read More »
Hey, This is one of those days, and they seem to surface more often. Maybe it’s the myriad of communication devices. Perhaps it’s the non-stop nature of life, our expanding resources, or the Bikernet non-stop mantra and creative spirit. About the time we feel confident with the completion of one project, three more land in
BROKEN SPOKE SUNDAY POST FOR MARCH 24, 2013 Read More »
Hey, Life is nuts. I was almost caught up on content, when I attempted to write the feature for the Twisted Ultimate Builder Editor’s Choice Winner from the Long Beach show, and couldn’t find a phone number, so I kicked back. What the hell, I was about to turn 65 and pondered taking a break.

Hey, Hang on for today. I need to investigate UGG boots. I find the soft ones last about a year then blow out. I’m looking for an upgrade. I went digging through their site and to an Urban Feet shoe store in San Pedro. I found two different UGG boots, similar style, but the factory
BIG ENGINE SUNDAY POST FOR FEBRUARY 24, 2013 Read More »
Hey, I don’t know about you, but life is strange and more bizarre by the day. Is it too much population? Just this week I read about drones being used domestically, sports taking over for religion, and security cameras expanding their reach into our lives. And of course how computer access will monitor every aspect
Presidents Day Sunday Post Feb. 17, 2013 Read More »
Hey, I read Englishman’s editorial in the Feb issue of the HORSE. He made several valid points, but I particularly like this paragraph: On a personal level, I have a Concealed Pistol License, and I carry my pistol every day. It’s no big deal. Many citizens exercise that right. I don’t think it makes me

Hey, What a day yesterday was. I worked feverishly on Rogue’s JIMS cam bearing tech. I needed to work on a program for the MRF’s Industry Council for Motorcycling. Then Tobey arrived and started on US Chopper flat track tank manufacturing. I couldn’t stand it and dove into the shop. I needed to install the

Hey, It’s the Final Playoff Sunday, so who is going to read the Post? It’ll still be around on Monday, Tuesday… for years to come. Sometimes I think about the future and how we will be able to click on Bikernet and read an article from 20 years ago. Could be an amazing resource
SUNNY PLAYOFFS SUNDAY POST FOR JANUARY 20, 2013 Read More »
Hey, I started on the 2013 list last week, but that’s not all. I am still involved in the MRF Industry Council, workouts, TV, and Movie efforts. We have an Australian Water Separator to test and a grant effort for the study of Freedom. And I still want to learn music. Plus, a large goal
WILDCARD SUNDAY POST for January 6, 2013 Read More »
Merry Merry, What a crazy holiday season. We have been lost in a befuddling fog. It’s sort of the black icing on the leather cake for a tough year. But I won’t go into all the elements right now. It’s not bad, just tough. I’ll hold off for the state of the Bikernet Union address

Hey, We’re climbing on Christmas Holiday quick, and it’s a strange and wonderful one for the members of the Bikernet family. Let’s get right to the news. Then I’ll fill you in on the weekend, and what’s coming next week. Creating a Sanctuary at Home– Your home – whether big, small or somewhere
Seasons Greetings Sunday Post for December 16, 2012 Read More »
Hey, How was your Thanksgiving? I hung with my 90-year-old mom and we went to see Lincoln. Then I cruised out to a party at the Triking Viking’s digs. The damn place was packed with women, mostly young. The estrogen in the air caused the lights to fade and wall paint to bubble. I was

Hey, Honoring Veterans Day. Buy a veteran lunch, a drink, or hell go for a ride. I attempted to tour the battleship Iowa yesterday, but the crowds were daunting, and I’m not a crowd sorta guy. I peeled out, and it was just as well. Later in the evening I met with the lovely Gina

Hey, Never a dull moment. Received an e-mail the other day. A Hamster, Jack Luna, died unexpectedly or an aneurism in his stomach, after having dinner with Barry Weiss. I thought maybe they were fighting over who had the coolest car. Then I get a call this morning about a brother’s son dying in a
So Cal Hot Flash Sunday Post Read More »
Hey, Damn, it’s slightly warm here today, and of course life it nuts. A reader sent me a report on Japan’s debt and economic climate. Why is it that governments have the audacity to regulate and demand from their citizens, and can’t control themselves, their bureacuracies, and can’t balance their budgets? Seems a tad nuts
