It's been a bit since I've logged in, let alone written a post, and I was quite happy to see I had multiple reads a day, every day these last few months. Thanks for the support to everyone who is reading. I definitely appreciate it.
Tonight I will be hitting up the %18 meet in Burnaby BC. Should be pretty rad. Usually a random line up of awesome bikes. Everything from stock Harley Davidson's, to Cafe Racers, Thumpers, Sport bikes, Dual Sport bikes, everything in between and even a group of sick Ruckus' usually show up. Love this meet, coffee, donuts, sickles, and people that love all things two wheeled. It's held at Byrne and Marine in South Burnaby every second or third thursday of the month during riding season. You would have to check out their facebook page for the accurate details, or follow Motorcycho Magazine on facebook. Norm usually shares the goods.
I finally got my chopper all fixed up and back on the road. I had help from many friends, from everything to pawning my bike to my pal Mitch and his awesome wife Amanda, as I was a broke fucker over the winter, but didn't want to get rid of my bike forever. A very nice man held onto a wheel and threw in a rubber and some bars for me, and a great dude named Skyler re-welded my sissy bar and lent me a jack so I could put her all back together. I can honestly say, being in a band and playing music was fun, but it just blows my mind how supportive everyone in the motorcycle scene have been to me. With the exception of that odd bugger who seems to only want to support himself, everyone has been just amazing to me the last two years, and I am super grateful for that. Wouldn't be riding today without some of these rad people, thank you all so much, you know who you are <3
Will do my best to keep at least a weekly post through this season. After a lot of blogging when I started this page, I think it's a realistic goal. Daily posting is a lot of work, and I'm not getting paid or making money from this, but I love it, and will try to keep it coming...
I will leave this one with something for everyone to think about. Next time you go to a moto-meet, riding event, chopper camping, bike show, or whatever it is you do. Approach that quiet dude in the back, or that girl that just got her first bike, and introduce yourself. Invite someone out to ride. I was that quiet dude who was too afraid to ask people to hang, and I'm lucky I met some rad folks, and ultimately have some great riding friends now. You never know, you could totally change someone's life, and that is rad. This is why I love motorcycles. Have a blast and ride safe this summer!
