Cleanliness Is Next To Clusterfuck

I am never washing my bike again. EVER. I went six months or more without fucking it up with soap and water and everything was fine, but I took it out today for the first time since washing it on Thursday and I seriously wondered if I’d make it home alive. I must have washed […]

Street Crud

One of the things I like about my Road Glide is its stereo system, because with it I can listen to music while I’m riding. There’s nothing like carving through the canyons with a dinosaur rock soundtrack to really make a good ride great. Thing is, when you’re blasting your tunes on a motorcycle, everyone […]

White Line Tonic

Jesus, I’m a mopey motherfucker. I’m almost embarrassed by that last “poor-widdle-me” entry. I actually would be embarrassed if I didn’t like how I wrote a few passages from it. That “warm, buttery light” line may have been pretty cheesy, but it also strikes me as being just a little bit Hemingway-esque, so I’m perhaps […]

The Haves vs The Have Nots

I went out for a late night ride along Pacific Coast Highway tonight, down through Malibu and up to the Ventura County line. Having a bad night, needed to get out and clear my head. Just lost my job, no prospects in sight, don’t know how I’m going to cover the mortgage next month, not […]

Law Enfarcement

One of the local power clubs threw a big fundraiser party last Sunday. There were hundreds of bikers there from at least 25 different clubs — some of them Christian clubs, and everything went very, very smoothly. The party was held at a VFW post in a relatively remote and unpopulated suburb, in an area […]

Smile!

When it rains, it pours. I started the week with a traffic ticket, and now I’m closing out the week with a second traffic ticket. Awesome! The one I got today was from one of those damned red light cameras. The light turned yellow as I approached and I was close and fast enough that […]

No You Turn

I tend to ride like a bat out of hell and I’ve been saying lately that I’m lucky I haven’t gotten pulled over for it yet. I’ve had a feeling that there’s a ticket floating around out there with my name on it and it’s getting closer. Well, it found me yesterday: I got a […]

Parts Is Parts

I received a package in the mail today that really annoyed the piss out of me. It was some parts I bought from a RUB with a new Harley who was obviously “customizing” his new garage queen with what I assume was standard H-D over-the-counter bling. He had put up a post on an internet […]

Split Or Get Off The Botts

I stumbled across a motorcycle blog the other day where the guy posted an angry screed against another biker who he felt was tailgating him. He started his tale, titled Some People Just Can’t Help It – They’re Dicks! thusly… I’m riding home in the fast lane and traffic is stop and go and I’m […]

MC Comedy

Go to myspace. Search for SAMCRO. Prepare to bust a gut laughing. There are actually people out there claiming membership in the Sons of Anarchy MC. There are actually people out there claiming to be prospects in this make-believe MC. There are actually people out there who are sewing this shit onto leather vests and […]
