Today, Sunday we got a tad sick of “playing” indoor games and simply gazing out of the front door watching the rainsqualls and wind blasts, so we went off to “town” to restock the larder.It was then that we decided to visit several friends that up till about 6 months ago were our neighbours.Bruce and Vivian are well into their seventies now, and retired to a comfortable government housing...

In 1989 I rode my 1974 Norton 850 Interstate from Phoenix Arizona to Kimberly BC Canada, a trip of 1800 miles one way.The "Super Tanker" was running like a top not a bit of a problem for 2 days when going through Salt Lake City I noticed the right had exhaust nut was working its way loose. Normally this wouldn't be to much of a problem but in a fit of madness I had installed a pair... [MORE]

Back in the day I was on a road trip with Fat Larry. We were somewheres in the Ozarks when it started to rain buckets so we took refuge in a large cave just off the road. The rain didn’t let up at all for maybe an hour and FL was getting bored so he suggested we smoke some hash to pass the time. Ok, so maybe smoking dope while riding wasn’t the smartest thing to do, but this was the early 70s... [MORE]

I'm 16 and my dad just bought a Yamaha 600 DT. I get permission, let my buddy borrow my 250 Honda Enduro and we head for a track out in the woods.In Angel Fire New Mexico, there is only one main road to get to the woods which is a highway and on either side of this highway is a ditch you can ride in.We're going along and I'm having fun, first because I'm on this powerful bike and second because...

Helmet Hair & Ignition Failure
Sunday, November 26, 2006
The same phenomenon which creates thunderstorms and lightning are around us every day, creating high voltages and causing sparks. When you've been for a bike ride on a cold winter's day, you take your helmet off and your hair stands on end - you've created a positive charge, so each hair is trying to get as far away from the one next to it... hence very bad helmet hair. You then reach for the... [MORE]

The style at the time was to wear tight jeans and platform shoes. (I was a professional musician at the time... guitar).Anyway, there we were riding down the highway between two semi trucks. I could have reached out my right or left hand and touched either of the trucks. We were doing about 90 miles per hour.Suddenly, without warning, the engine blows up.Now my bonehead friend had decided that... [MORE]
