Bullet Made Bikes
The history of war toys extends back to the beginnings of civilization with their appearance in the tombs of ancient Egyptian Pharaohs. Ancient Greek children were playing with small wooden replicas of the Trojan Horse. In effect, toy soldiers have been with us since there were full-sized soldiers. The privileged children of medieval Europe were
Cantina Episode 70–Strange Days in the Hood
The full moon crested the harbor like an evil glow over Transylvania. The hue from the Los Angeles sky foreground turned the color of the perfect globe a dense, almost Harley Orange. It didn’t exude the aura of freedom and chrome, but maybe a darker spirit like Halloween. There was something eerie about the night.

1914 Feilbach Limited
Launching its first motorcycle in 1904, the Feilbach enterprise would eventually knock heads, SOHC or otherwise, with another Milwaukee upstart company, Harley-Davidson, although it seemed Feilbach had the upper hand with a better motorcycle. Arthur Otto Feilbach and his brother William tinkered together their first machine within their small home garage. This was

Hey, Happy Holidays, and avoid the Miracle Mung if possible. Markus Cuff had it for three weeks. I thought it was a 24-hour bug, but that was four days ago, and I still can’t talk. Maybe it’s a good day to watch football and drink whiskey. Let’s hit the news: SOMETHING FROM
