Hey, It’s an interesting day, week, month, year. Things a popping. Day before yesterday LiveWire went public. Today Porsche went public. What could it mean? No messing around. Let’s hit the news: The Bikernet Weekly News is sponsored in part by companies who also dig Freedom including: Cycle Source Magazine, the MRF, Las Vegas Bikefest, […]
STIMULATING BIKERNET WEEKLY NEWS for September 29th 2022 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

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

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, 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

Hey, I’m not sure what to make of today. Victory invited Bikernet to a new model launch, but they won’t allow us to reveal the contents until the 30th of this month. We can’t even mention the name. It’s burning a hole in our collective pockets, but we will respect their wishes. Hang on. I

Hey, Just returning from the Smoke Out in Rockingham, North Carolina, Mike Lichter flew into town for Born Free, and we couldn’t miss the 100th Anniversary of Motorcyclists Magazine—amazing party in sprawling, vintage motorcycle laden facilities. They have photo studios to die for. Then it was off to Born Free at Irvine Lake, where Rip’s

Hey, It’s supposed to be raining cats and dogs on the coast today, but last night we worked on the good Doctor’s dresser. He faced starting issues, and Dr. Willie came to our rescue. I didn’t have the JIMS clutch puller he had. We ran smack dab into the center of Evo heaven. We tinkered

Hey, A major chunk of the industry is rolling home from Daytona right now. I hope it was a mighty successful week, and sets the stage for a brilliant metal flake and chromed-out year. I had sort of a slap-in-the-face epiphany this week. It started with trips to Saddlemen and watching the team build a

Hey, This is going to be very quick. I promise myself not to plan anything on Sundays, but you know exactly how that goes, with guests, events, women, and whiskey. There’s always something. This weekend we are loading the Assalt Weapan and taking it to the Chowder Barge in the early afternoon. I’ll haul a

Hey, I realize the two most important games of the season are being played today, so I need to make this quick. Get this: The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will test employees at over 100 airports for radiation. No, they won’t test subject passengers or the machines. “We still have no idea how much radiation

Hey, I was going to piss and moan about the holidays getting in the way of building motorcycles and making progress. We need some more Progressive travel limiters for our new 430 13-inch shocks. We need some James Panhead tins gaskets to wrap up the Salt Shaker. We’re burnin’ daylight. Plus, I thought this news

Hey, Look out, it’s almost Thanksgiving. We are headed rapidly into the holidays. My god, run for your lives. Santa Clause stumbled into the Chowder Barge last night and told dirty jokes. I worked on the Bikernet Headquarters, posted Bill’s Legislative news, worked out, and grappled with a slight gas leak on my mudflap girl
