Hey, It’s been raining here for a couple of days, sorta like Seattle. The Easyriders show came to Long Beach this weekend and we checked it out. Ben will write a report. It was good to see some of the old bros. From time to time I publish something from a reader. Then, another […]

Hey, This is an interesting one. We are running at life fast and furious. We peeled through the holidays, and never slowed down, except for maybe a minute. So, how do we make a difference in 2015? It’s up to us, to stop doing anything that hurts us, our families, our brotherhood, or our country.
HOW THE HELL TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN 2015 SUNDAY POST FOR January 4, 2015 Read More »
Happy Easter, I mentioned in the news about a story I told, and how I wasn’t sure how my listener would respond. All is well and she got the joke. I dodged another bullet. This next week will be interesting. We have a serious line-up of striking content. And Richard is working on his second

Hey, I’ll make this quick. I woke up this morning and grabbed my first cup of coffee. I sat in bed reading the January 31 issue of The Week Magazine. Several reports jumped out at me. The editorial covered energy consumption and global warming. It basically said we were supposed to reduce energy consumption by

Hey, Does anyone know the ins and outs of shop roll-up doors? Ours may need some help. Of course the guy who came over pronounced after a short inspection, “You need a new door, quick.” That’s just $4,000. Ouch. Biketoberfest is coming right up, and so is the Love Ride next weekend on opposite coasts.

Hey, Got an early start this morning. I’ll scramble, try to wrap the Post and grab a few Sunday hours for a ride, or who knows. Bonneville is breathing on us hard, then the Boot Ride, 110th Anniversary event and Las Vegas Bike Fest. I fired the 1928 Shovelhead yesterday, and Richard fired up the

Hey, A friend stopped over last night. He came to Long Beach to be given a lifetime membership in the Southern California Judo Association. He’s a sharp cookie. He mentioned that AR-15s are like the least used weapon for murder in the US, and actually the most-used weapon is a baseball bat. Should we ban

Here we go, I’m not sure where to start this morning. The industry is still in Cincy, although many are trying to find a way to watch the Super Bowl. We will have several reports from the front, most were good, but some spelled doom and gloom. That’s always the case. I looked up a

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 another wild weekend at the Bikernet Interplanetary Headquarters in the Wilmington ghetto on the edge of the Port of Los Angeles. Just when we think life might simmer, the weekend explodes. I started to work on a tech about ordering hydraulic brake lines for motorcycles, while messing with the Bikernet advertising program for
Happy Easter Goddammit, Where are the eggs? It’s interesting living down at the harbor away from any residential merriment. When a holiday arrives the only indication is the lack of traffic, trucks and folks. The place is vacant for a day. So no sign of Easter Eggs, or rabbits. Although, the dogs have been killing

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, Well it’s never a dull moment around the Bikernet Headquarters. It was scheduled to be a mild weekend of bike wiring and tinkering around the shop, but as usual every weekend explodes with activity. The good Dr. Hamster called first with the notion to organize a Hamster Lunch ride for today. I agreed. Then

Hey, I wrote about the economy, then the Week magazine hit our mail box. The subtitle read, “A surge in hiring finally sparks economic optimism.” Amazing. The Labor Department job report indicated that employers added a net of 243,000 jobs last month. Unemployment dropped to 8.3 percent. That’s good goddamn news. So, I’ll keep my
