New Posts Up at Motorcycle Missions
I helped with a quick write up for a new (to me) charity I volunteer for, and figured I would share. Motorcycle Missions is based in Austin, Texas but does different programs all over the country. However, since they have multiple programs happening this month in the central Texas area, I'm down in Austin helping … Continue reading New Posts Up at Motorcycle Missions
Movie Review: Red Dirt Rising
I finally found a movie I wanted to review that involved cars instead of motorcycles, but it had all the momentum of a flat tire. Red Dirt Rising is a 2010 film that felt like a straight-to-TV movie from the 1980's. They clearly had a budget for cars and wardrobe, with the 1930's-1940's era vibe … Continue reading Movie Review: Red Dirt Rising
Biker B-Movies: Road to Paloma
I believe a huge reason I like the old "Chopper Operas" of the 1950's through the 1980's is nostalgia. They are usually filmed in Southern California, where I'm originally from, and I can recognize many of the streets, bridges, and even the buildings used.

A Ride Through the Heart of Vintage Motorcycle Culture
Just a quick note. Because I got a new helmet and need a new mount for my camera, I don't have many pictures to share of my travels recently. I reckon most of you just scroll through and look at the pics anyway, so why waste time writing about things if there's not photos to … Continue reading A Ride Through the Heart of Vintage Motorcycle Culture
Rat Rods on the River
I attended a rat rod show on the Kentucky river and my only regret is that it didn't last longer...

Flat Trackin’ in Sturgis
My time at the Jackpine Gypsies Super TT ended up having me be a stand-in crew member for a few brief but memorable minutes. #jkroams #americanflattrack #flattrack
Sturgis And The Return: 2025 Edition
The ride home gave me time to reflect on Sturgis Rally 2025 and my time with Motorcycle Missions. #motorcyclemissions #harleydavidson #sturgis2025 #jkroams
The Road To Sturgis: Motorcycle Mission
Well Sturgis Rally 2025 is in the books. I am beginning my journey toward Kentucky in the morning. I'll back up though and give a recap. As usual, the only reason I would go to this event is supporting a charity. This time it was Motorcycle Missions (MM). It was my second event with them … Continue reading The Road To Sturgis: Motorcycle Mission
