here's one last cool bike parties of the summer.From what i've heard it should be one hell of a time.Located right across the Ohio border in Salem.Me and the guy's are sure to go.An for once it's an event that does'nt have the words rumble,thunder or roar in the title.That for me says this could be the kind of thing i can get into.It also doesn't hurt it has my two favorite words on the poster.COLD an BEER.Thought i was gonna say free huh!

monday's suck

So this monday after a long day at work me and my brother mark took off from my house.We were on our way to get measured for tux's for my wedding more on that later,anyhow we were the bikes headed for the tux shop the route i picked went thru the new round about in town as we were going around i was on the outside going left when the next thing i know BLAM! mark tagged my left side with his bike and we locked up until I hit the curb.whichleft me on my side under my bike.Of course somebody I knew watched the whole thing go down.A couple on lookers offered to help us and asked if we wanted them to call for help.which usally means the police or ems.I told thanks but no thanks.The authorites always complicate things.We got the bikes untangled an uprighted took a quick look over an i decided it was best to head back to the compound.Opon inspection my newly finished ride was slightly damaged,dents in the tank,bent foot clutch lever,bent bars and wheel.My bro felt horrible an offered to pay the damages cuz his a stand up dude.I told him a quick trip to my parts bin and it would be on the rode the next day which it was.New bars,swapeed the front wheel for another and bent the clutch lever back and good for rest of the year.Funny thing was I told him.Look on the bright side it always could be worse.A car could of hit me while a toolbag was texting or we could enjoyed a adult beverage in which johnny law would come out hiding and drew on us being a menace to socitey an all. So morale of the post is stay single file on the round about.

this is too cool

telling like it is

sunday ride

So went ridin sunday with doug.left at 10a.m. after some breakfast,for me its was two camel's and a Monster energy drink and for doug it was probaly 7 eggs two pounds of bacon and half a loaf of bread.I'm sure he'll post pics of that.We rode out to Geneva on the lake,oh. under dismal skies.The fisrt part of this trip was good. No rain an some wet roads every time we made a turn.Me running no front fender proved too be intresting.The taste of road grime and the ocasional piece of road jerky tied me over till lunch at the lake.Speaking of food we saddled up at high tides bar for burgers and drinks.Which was great and the service is always top notch.We pulled out of geneva headed towards conneiut lake pa.Beautiful roads and skies the whole way.Got to the beach club in time for BIKES,BLUES AND BBQ to find a polka festival instead.I gotta say there more polka panthers than motorcycles.I guess that crowd was more dedicated than the so-called bikers because the forecast had called for isolated t-stroms.Gotta say the weather was on are side till 15 miles from home.Outside of zelienople pa. the weather must of thought we were having too much fun and it poured the rest of the way home.Once again i will note i was not running a front fender.So by the time i got home i'd was throughly cleansed by nature.By the way doug was running the road king hard core style with no windshield.265 miles home safe an soaking wet.Still better than a good day at work!

Fuckin' around on break

So this my first post. This blog is gonna cover me and my friends expliots from riding,camping,tramping,eating wings and whatever else i can think of. First off went for ride o slippery rock,pa to a micro brewery for a bite to eat saturday i gotta say food was outstanding. If your ever in that area stop. You won't be disappointed with the grub or the grog. Lately the weather in western pa. has benn more like fla. Today it seemed to rain every fifthteen minutes then the sun would come out and the cycle would start over.Can't really bitch i'm ridin no matter if rains or not.This the way it should be. Too many times i talk to some self proclaimed biker an ask if he was going for a ride later? An the response i usally get is well the news says its suppose to rain today.My response is that his bike won;t melt! But i guess he would.WTF! If yourgonna worry about getting wet or dirting up your bike.My advice is to sell it! I mean shit! Like my good brother BIG JIM always said, You'll dry when you get there! Don't be a puss!
