I was having trouble with my sinuses this morning after my morning ride. Darned allergies! I immediately saw why after letting my bike sit for a couple of hours. My bike and my helmet had been hit by...

My wires were showing on my front tire, so I decided to change both tires. I think I'll keep the old rear tire for a while as a spare just in case. I even swapped out my valve stems this time, but I'...

"Finally got my own copy of "Ride4"! Ok. This one's technically a year newer than mine, but same generation. I'll count it....

When decided to stop at the bike dealership yesterday for a new helmet, I decided to check out the bikes on my way out. Between the Kawasaki Eliminator and the Yamaha Bolt R-Spec, I want both. I won't...

My 3 year old nephew asked me to build him a motorcycle out of playdough. I'd never done this before, but I couldn't just let the little guy down. ..... Then he wanted me to build a race car, so we bu...

I thought I might make to the end of the warm season without having to ride on a wet road, but that four letter r-word got me last weekend. It's okay though. I got the chain cleaned and relubed once I...

They say nothing good happens after 2 am, but I'm here to say it can. I recently started frequenting one of the local pool halls with one of my best bros. Now we have a new riding bro. These were some...

It started as a solo ride and turned into riding with one of my best bros. Being a Saturday night, of course we hit up our favorite local pool hall. It turned out some other bikers had the same idea a...

My dad bought a new toy, but it has a few issues to sort out taking away from my riding time. What have we done?!? She sure is pretty though....

I had planned to be at work, but this was worth it. (I did show up to my job eventually)....

One of my friends told me about this benefit ride two days before I was scheduled to return home from my job.... I made it to the registration table just in time to sign up... It was nice to not be th...

My main reason for going to this was to help a friend get some NASCAR merchandise autographed. Then I found these at one of the race team display areas. I was effectively distracted for a while....

One of my best bros asked me if I could ride his RC51 and shake it down a little to troubleshoot some of the issues he'd been having with it recently. Of course I was happy to oblige. It's geared lon...

Motorcycles and old performance cars.... I'd say I can get used to this, but I've been living this lifestyle for years. If anything, I was born used to this. And now I'm even starting to bring others...

It's probably safe to say the best vehicle to drive when parking's gonna be packed is a motorcycle. At least that's part of my excuse to ride. I also knew I'd need to wear layers in order to endure si...

I answered a call last night to come test drive a bike for one of my best bros. It turned out to be a 2001 Honda RVT1000R. The wheelbase was too short for most riders in our area, but we didn't care....

I was out running some errands a few days ago and decided to stop for lunch on my way home. Imagine my delight when I pulled up to find other bikers had the same idea while just passing through. They...

I had to get to an important meeting about a half hour away from my house. The weather was unusually warm for the middle of February at over 50°F, and I didn't read nearly enough into that. I should'v...

I had to ride this thing tonight. I just had to. I already know y'all can understand....

Even though I currently ride a superbike and have been talking about wanting to someday build and own a café racer, there's actually another style of motorcycle that ranks highest of all in my list of...

It's a little cool out, but still warm enough (by my standards) to enjoy the ride, so that's what I did....

If I'm gonna be a good moto-teacher on this bike, I need to know this bike. And if I'm gonna know this bike, I need to ride this bike. I already read the owner's manual, so I should know this bike li...

Ever since I learned about the "Ton Up Boys" across the pond back in the '50s, I've been on a kick about wanting to build a café racer. Well it's not yet time for me to make that dream happen for myse...

I really wanted to see Cascade Falls. Using my bike to get to the trail head was easy enough. Actually hiking the rest of the way was more of a challenge, but I'm still in decent shape, and I had good...

I think it's safe to say I'm this kid's favorite uncle. He wanted to hang out with me again this Saturday, and I told him he could. Then we got a chance to ride together on my R6. That looks in his ey...

Once again my helmet has saved me from some serious pain. Seriously, I'd rather accidentally hit a train head-on at top speed than get stung by one of these bad boys. I would have felt that sting for...

We initially bought my R6 to share. Little bro wanted to ride with me pretty badly though and found a good deal, so he got one to call his alone. This Ninja ZX6 was the result....

I never actually parked here before. I was walking back from the arcade when I realized this would be a great shot of my bike. It's just a shame my finger got a little in the way of the camera....
