r.i.p. hayabusa

my beautiful busa was parked in my front yard the other night and somebody stole it. wow. why? it was bad, thats why. and so were the other four sport bikes that were also stolen that night in my hood. its not the money- a wont get back what i paid for it, just bluebook for a 2002-its the violation. it was just a bike... a bike i spent six months looking for. now its probably disassembled and dirty, laying around in some greasy garage or shipping container. sucks...

bike night

headed to ram cycle to check out the scene...its a little hot for pantyhose, though. maybe i will take my swim suit!

reverse trike

i saw a reverse trike on the way back home today. it was going really fast so i couldnt make a positive i.d. but it kind of looked like this one from craigslist...i have covered trikes before, but not a reverse one: not my style, but pretty bad: the engine was sourced from an aprilia rsv 1000.

sunday drag racing

here is a compliation of the stills i shot at old dominion speedway last sunday. i thought there were a lot of nice bikes, but randy said hardly anyone was there: must have been another event near by.

drag bike racing

yesterday i headed to the old dominion speedway to watch randy blow it out on the track. thats his kawasaki 900 above... i took a ton of photos and a couple of movies which i am still editing, so look for some awesome action here soon because it was great.

bike week is over

yeah...bike week is over so i came home...without a new bike this time. myrtle beach bike week is really done, but it was great to get out of town for a few days and a change of pace is a good thing...probably my last year... we did a lot of riding and added a lot of miles, ate some decent food and generally had a great time. on the way home, big black kept flashing the "check engine" light: i am a little concerned...wondering if it has anything to do with the salt air. 

bike week kicks into gear

in response to last week's posting on a trick-y bwm s1000rr.

new orleans bike week

Today is the second day of the Second Annual Bike Week in New Orleans: looks pretty wild, but everyone knows how they role in the big easy. The Riverwalk Festival gates open at noon, and starting at 3 p.m., a series of tribute bands –– Dead or Alive (Bon Jovi), Silver Bullet (Bob Seger) and Paradise City (Guns N’ Roses) –– will open for Kyle Turley at 8 p.m. and comedian Gallagher at 10 p.m. yowsa: that is some hyper-lame entertainment, possible fit for the geriatric ward. Other Bike Week festivities will be held concurrently at House of Blues, starting at 6 p.m. with Joe Santana (classmate of my father-in-law) and continuing with several acts until finishing with a 2 a.m. show by Houses of the Holy, a Led Zeppelin tribute band. i dont know...where is the new orleans' sound?
