Sidecar Racers: Hanging Out On The Job
With no coverage of sidecar racing here in the US, we try to make our own. Some organizations have rules about what can be mounted and how it's mounted, limiting what we can capture on camera. No such problem existed when the SRA-West met up with MotoAmerica, the national Superbike series, at Utah Motorsports Campus. … Continue reading Sidecar Racers: Hanging Out On The Job

Best Commercial Ever

While we all want the drama and excitement of life-changing events, not every story needs a hero and a villain and a lesson. No, some … Continue reading Shared: Flight of the Airsick Lobsters
Chris Cornell: RIP 2017
I don't mention music very often in my writing or updates, but I spent well over a decade as an avid guitarist and bassist, including a failed attempt to sustain myself as a studio musician. My favorite project, Sarn, was fronted by my close friend Jay Bartell (aka Jay Walken). Jay was majorly influenced by … Continue reading Chris Cornell: RIP 2017
Interview: Flat Track Champion Bryan Smith
I recently got some time to talk with Bryan Smith. Now with the #1 plate and a factory ride on the Indian FTR750, he is still battling wheel to wheel with his main rival, Jared Mees (also now on an Indian.) The interview is pieced together in this piece that is now live on Motorcyclist Magazine's … Continue reading Interview: Flat Track Champion Bryan Smith
