Hey, Hang on. I took a subscription to the Wall Street Journal. I’ve never liked papers. I read the Week Magazine cover to cover. I watch C-span for what’s happening. I don’t watch any news programs except the BBC and it seems to be dying. My mother recently passed and she had a small stock […]

Hey, Rogue brought us the majority of the Hurricane news and the impact on Daytona, since he lives in Florida and survived. On the other hand, it turns out Oil may be the good guy, direct from the earth refined and used in may forms, whereas killing cows, pigs, birds and fish might be a

Happy Father’s Day! Maybe I’ll take an Indian Run to Century Motorcycles for their Father’s Day celebration. I was a lousy father to my son, Frank. I wasn’t around most of the time. I was a better father to his kids, who are terrific, Frankie, Maxine, and Olivia. And a helpful father to Sin Wu’s

Hey, It’s cold even in California. Last week we watched drought reports and this week there was flood coverage. I watched one report on global warming recently. The PHD said 50 percent could be human and 50 percent is likely to be natural. No one knows for sure, but the regulations keep coming. Ah, the

Hey, It’s a new year and a very special one. Maybe it’s a year to get our priorities straight. It’s definitely a year to step up and help. Either help with your community or help with the motorcycle industry or both. Look into joining your motorcycle rights group. And I’m doing to take a class

Incredible, David Mann Chopperfest is happening right now in Ventura, and the Moon Eyes Christmas Party was rocking Irwindale yesterday.

Hey, We are entering another bullshit time in history, spurred by gangsters and thugs. They can call it Jihad or give it some religious excuse, but it’s bullshit from bullies. During a time of giving thanks we are also looking at a twisted world and at the future of our own government. We’re ready for

Hey, I wish I knew what the hell I was doing today. I’m headed for hip-replacement surgery. But in a sense it’s a blessing to have a week in a hospital. I’ll get to finish my next book, Chance II. I’ve written several books, and this might be my last. They haven’t been wildly successful,

You can spot a vintage Indian board tracker racer a mile away thanks to its drooping handlebars as well as spindly “hardtail” bicycle type frame and narrow 2 ¼ inch tires. With clutchless ferocious motors and minus brakes, you counted on your feet when trying to come to a stop after 100+ mph. A

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, This is damn interesting. Last night I sat with the Saddlemen team at their table during the 71st TrailBlazers Banquet. This banquet is devoted to recognizing historic racers who are alive, or no longer with us. It’s a lot about dirt bike racing, to Daytona road racing. The last time I attended Jerry Branch

Hey, Another whacked out weekend. It’s interesting how time flies. I had a plan to start my charity bronze sculpture this weekend, but it’s gone, I mean the time. Ah, but all is not lost. Lots were accomplished this weekend and I’m rapidly catching up on writing assignments. I roughed out Pat Patterson’s Led Sled

Hey, I don’t know what to make of this, but I’m trying. More importantly how will any of this effect motorcycling in the future? This comes from The Week Magazine for October 17th: One promising high-tech auto feature in development is “vehicle-to-vehicle” (or V2V) communication, which would allow cars to virtually “talk” to one

Hey, It’s ironic how we learn lessons, what sinks in, or what touches a cord in our memory banks. I had a tooth pulled on Tuesday and they gave me a round of antibiotics. I started to take them and felt weak, then my joints started to ache, and finally I awoke to a splitting

It doesn’t make any sense, but what does except cool custom bikes and hot women? It’s all a dichotomy. Like the preacher who drinks whiskey, the family man who builds wild choppers and hangs around sexy broads. It’s oil and water, the wicked and the pure, the virgin and satin. But then there are the
