Yes, that seat says bridgstone. before tires. before bikes were disposable. Working at a main line dealership means i work on a lot of crap that i have no interest in at all. but every once in a blue moon something cool comes through the gates. every once in a while i get to do what i dream of doing and then sometimes they get loaded right back on a trailer and leave before i can even touch a spanner, a wrench, or a drain pan. good thing i have my own porn stash at home. none the less i shur do love me some motorcycles. mmmm mmmm mmmm.

ouch

somebody should have hit the kill switch. somebody wanted me to fix this untill i gave them a price. somebody has a sweet honda in a box. R.I.P.

Local yocal

The local flat track last night was fun. a lot of fun. practice was a greased 3/8 banked oval slippery slidey greasy shit streak of slime. The infield tt was a mini moto track with one death slick hairpin perfect for finding your bar stops. ( i crashed riding up to the start) i mounted my trusty ol xr650 and some how won over some really fast dudes on mx bikes. Then it was time for the 3/8 oval modiefied (open) Josh had a supermoto that had belonged to Jeff Ward. Billy had his xr650 on some capable home brew tires and a local fellow brought out a jawa speedway bike that he had not ever been on. I won on my sweet heart yamaha twin. The premier 450 class saw the track tack up to maybe the most fun track i have raced yet. after the half way point i passed for second and did everything i could to catch my pal and always fast J.W. The white flag lap came. I went deeper than a scuba diver and harder than ron jeremy and some how pulled it off. Glory. as if that wasnt enough the speedway bike dude wanted me to do a few laps after trophie photos and i got my first seat time on a speedway. scary but fun. i want one.

more photos later maybe.
suport your local race track eh.
go racing!

trials and tribulations

Went over to the Goats front yard for some fun friday night. Mick and I hit the ramp While Steve and Goat defied the laws of everything on their boing boing bikes. Of course after a few luke warm Shlitz I thought i was a trials champ and sent my fifty on some interesting tumbles and Mick took a good soil sample on the ramp landing pile, it was rocky with particles of pain. nothing a few more schlitz couldnt fix.

Stockton

The Stockton 1/2 mile was funner than a barrel of drunk monkeys. the old xs did purdy good against some real nice bikes. got the overall victory in the amature vintage open. guesse its time to step up to the expert.
Thanks for the pic King Kirk

God says

Willy drove the 5.5 hrs up from Denver to hang out and ride choppers last weekend. style'n.

Evil fuckin Mango. " I like to eat grass hoppers and puke them up in large piles on the carpet"

" I like to chase Mango, someday i will eat her and puke her up on the carpet"

Thanks for the visit bro. ridin choppers was epic and the quality time roominating in the garage has left much rubber on the ceiling. who says. god says.
