I’ve somehow remained optimistic through the month of February and managed to keep my mood elevated, but I’m finally fed up with winter. I sit here in bed, having called in sick from work. My doctor diagnosed me with bronchitis this morning (which I’ve had for 2 months now). It’s 14 degrees outside and we’re [...]

OK, so I’m off a day this week. Having a Monday holiday always messes my schedule up! So, our video today is about how to pick up a dropped motorcycle. It is information that appears on almost every website geared toward women riders. Is it helpful, sure. Does it need to be on every website [...]

Way back in October, I was bound and determined to get my ass to Daytona this year. Well…looks like that’s not going to happen [...]
Holy ’80′s Batman! One of my favorite streaming radio stations of late is Radio Nigel, a station that plays ’80′s music WITH ATTITUDE. Anyway, yesterday they played “Harley David” by the Bollock Brothers, which sounded somewhat familiar to me. Low and behold, I even found their video on youtube in all it’s hilarity.
