I am fuming. I was driving to work today in traffic and saw a very disturbing thing. Going approximately 50 mph I pass a blue BMW 3 series coupe and see its driver … reading a news paper. Actually reading it and flipping pages. Also the driver has a blue tooth headset on and he […]
Every day brings some excitement. Yesterday I saw flying broom. It was coming straight at me. I had to swerve hard to avoid hitting it. No, it wasn’t a part of witchcraft. I was riding to work and it fell out of someone’s truck at 80mph.
I’m amazed how naive and stupid people are about […]
Let me start out with a little flash back down the memory lane. Long time ago when Motodisiac and I became friends I was a certified scuba diver, he was a motorcycle rider. Some time went by. And what do you know - I own a motorcycle and he became a certified scuba diver.
Now that […]
Friday was marked by a celebrity motorcycle accident. Mr.George Clooney and his passenger known as Sara Larson (obviously a good looking young woman) were involved in a motorcycle accident in New Jersey. Per cops it is a “he said she said” sort of deal at this point. Clooney ended up having a broken rib, his […]
This morning on the way to work I waved to about 20 motorcyclists coming theﾃつ opposite wayﾃつ and not ONE waved me back. Usually at least some wave, so this was quite unusual. For 50 miles I was waiting for a wave back but it never came. I was gutted, how come all of the […]
Last night I had to ride to Motodisiac’s house. We were going to install frame sliders for unfortunate cases of me going down (hopefully never) and replace rear brake pads on my bike. I had to ride approximately 10 miles on a relatively windy and pretty sloppy road. Being warned that turns could be really […]
After a lot of thinking, reading,weighing in different options and last but not least talking to my good friend Motodisiac I was brave enough to purchase my first motorcycle.
It is a 2005 Suzuki SV650S. From what I gather it is a very good beginner bike. Easy to handle, not a complete crotch rocket, good […]
Motorcycles accidents happen. As someone who commutes 100 miles a dayﾃつ through the worst of Southern California traffic I see a lot of them. Motorcyclists know that sometimes one starts riding just a little too aggressive, a little too risky, a little too fast. From then on it’s just a matter of time before you […]
I think these pictures are pretty self-explanatory. Looks like theyﾃつ were scannedﾃつ from some magazine.

Even though it’s a little too late in the season, Rossi has finally cracked his string of bad luck and finished on the top of the box at today’s Portugese Grand Prix. It seemed really unusual seeing him so happy about winning, we got used to his domination over the last few years that it […]
