My New Project: Ride>Eat>Repeat
Read more: My New Project: Ride>Eat>RepeatViewing the human experience through the foods we share. I’ve been grappling with things for a long time now. Johnny Killmore as a “brand” isn’t really a brand. It’s job is to say “this is who I am and what I do, collaborate with me.” It does that job, but the identity isn’t the same as a brand. I’ve been…

Monthly Round Up: Moto, Lifestyle, And More
Read more: Monthly Round Up: Moto, Lifestyle, And MoreWhen I decide to avoid the things I should be doing, like work on the projects in my garage or write useful stories, I usually scroll through social media for news. It’s one of my de facto time-wasters. As anyone would guess, I end up down a rabbit hole most of the time. There is plenty of news about the…

The Story of Joe & Alma: The Sidecar TT Couple
Read more: The Story of Joe & Alma: The Sidecar TT CoupleIt’s pretty rare that I come across sidecar racing stories. I run into Facebook updates from fellow racers of course, and I see results from the British and World Championships as they happen.

There were so many stories in the 2017 event I couldn’t keep track even with a spreadsheet (yeah, that’s right, I used a spreadsheet). New manufacturers were one of the stories that just went right under the radar. It’s a shame…

Tax Time Shout Out: Debra McDaniel
Read more: Tax Time Shout Out: Debra McDanielI am in the process of sending off the piles of paperwork to get my 2016 taxes done and it reminds me how there are two distinct groups in this country. One group gets their W-2’s and files immediately, receiving and spending their refund before Valentine’s Day. The other group is like me: laboring to get papers put together and…
