Went for a ride.

It was 31 degree's outside, but that does not stop a man when he needs to ride.

 

The stainless aftermarket exhaust is single wall, so it gets that really nice rainbowing effect from the heat!!  I like it!

Beautiful . Porsche .

 

Now, this is what I am talking about!  This video goes through what I think the future of the automobile is all about.  Mo Powa, Mo Betta, Mo Fasta.

There is also a nice little bit about the development of the vehicle and some of the thoughts behind the innovations.

Old Bikes

Quick story:  I got into bikes because of racing.  Not straight line racing, but road course, Mid-Ohio, Gratten, Gingerman, Nelsons, etc....

Old bikes always seemed like a waste of time to me, because new bikes were faster, more reliable and cheeper to rebuild after you crash at the track (Which I do often).

Well, it was not until I was the accidental highest bidder on a heap of old bike on fleabay that I got into old bikes.  On this bike I learned how to rebuild carbs, gearboxes, dogear gears, use a lathe, mill, press, etc, etc, etc....  Now about 1/2 way thought this build I met a guy by the name of BSA Bert (somewhat of a legend in these parts).  This is when the obsession completely grabbed me, then mid-ohio vintage days cemented old bikes into my brain forever.  Here is what I discovered that has got me hooked.   The pure pleasure of a bike uncomplicated by modern day bullshit.  Pure, simple, functional, beautiful.  Here are a few examples.

Also the simplicity and direct engineering made these bikes accessible to my mind.  It is very clear where the valves are, what the single cylinder does, what is driving the magneto, and generator.  They sparked my imagination and literally sparked the idea of this company.

Regardless of where you live, what you ride (or the lack of safety equipment)  People will have fun on motorcycles.  It is almost ingrained in some people that pushing the limits and playing arround on 2 wheels will happen.  I rather enjoy this video, others might mock, but there is nothing wrong with a little hoonage, even if you live in Pakistan!!!

This is mostly for friends.....

Just posting some pics from the honeymoon.  Rachel, luckily enjoys off-roading, so we spent a good part of the honeymoon getting lost on paths through the woods that would lead to sweet deserted beaches!! 

All I asked them to do was strike a pose.......  This was the pose they chose.

We were about 4 miles back in the woods when 4WD decided to take a shit.  Luckily for us it was a dry day back in da woods!!

 

St. Regis on Kauai, I recommend 100%.  The people and place was amazing.  20-40 foot breaks off the beach here.

Long Board rental, Rachel did not partake :)

 About 10 miles back in the woods, just chillin and illin.
