Escape Parked Motorcycle Syndrome
by Editor on 11/24/20
We know there's a lot of people out there that have had to park their bikes until Spring...
We asked the question: Would you like us to post some motorcycle riding videos 30 to 60 minutes long, with no editing, no music, just the sounds of the wind in your face and the motorcycle's engine and exhaust? The response was overwhelmingly YES : )
We've built an interactive map below using Google Maps. Click on a red marker and a video of that exact area opens up showing you exactly what it's like to ride that road.
To help everyone get through the winter, turn on a space heater and fan in front of your monitor, pick a destination, push play and you're virtually riding....
Vrod cam tensioner covers
by Editor on 11/14/20
When it comes to customizing a motorcycle I'm a firm believer that, "the Devil's in the details" it's the little things that make the over all presentation pop. Scott Fitzgerald of Fitzgerald Motorsports has come through once again with this beautiful cam tensioner cover!

VROD Rally t-shirts
by Editor on 11/07/20
My order of Midwest Thunder V-Rod Rally t-shirts arrived from Fitzgerald Motorsports yesterday!
I would have loved to been able to attend these events but unfortunately I was unable to make it so a t-shirt souvenir will have to do.
They still have some left, you can order yours at Fitzgerald Motorsports
Another cool old barn
by Editor on 11/06/20
We find the coolest barns in our travels, some are pristine, some are falling down but they all make a great backdrop for a photo shoot.

Thumb squeegee

No, I'm not doing the unicorn salute... LOL
I'm using the built in squeegee on the thumb of Rukka's Argosaurus glove to remove the fogs water droplets.
Motorcycling in the fog
by Editor on 10/09/20
Well looks like it's that time of the year again, motorcycle riding in the fog... Many years ago when I rode a shovel head chopper wearing a leather jacket, jean vest, jeans, chaps and a beanie for a helmet I was chilled to the bone.
I'm sure glad those days are long gone and now I get to wear the most technologically advanced motorcycle riding gear in the world made by Rukka Motorsports. It's been over three years now and both Diane and myself have thrown everything at this gear from the damp fog, sub zero temperatures to over 40 degrees celsius and it's performed flawlessly!
Smoke or fog
by Editor on 10/07/20
Got out for a short ride yesterday on the backroads of Langley and found myself on this old dead end road, not sure if that's smoke or fog but I like the effect.

Two Vrods
by Editor on 10/05/20
Over the weekend I had the opportunity to ride with a fellow Vrod owner & friend with his 2007 Screamin' Eagle Tribute VRSCX V-ROD. He's done some very nice upgrades: Screamin' Eagle 16 gauge double barrel muffler kit, Engine guards, backrest, luggage rack, windshield, Avon Tyres, auxiliary lights and swapped out the spoke front wheel for a solid front wheel that was machined to match the slotted rear wheel.
Hope British Columbia

We have ridden through Hope British Columbia countless times stopping for gas at the Chevron then heading towards our next stop. There have also been a number of time where Hope was the destination stopping in at the Tourism Centre to see Brian McKinney who has a wealth of knowledge about this great community.
