Motorcycle Recall May 2022 – Beta, Tires, Handlebars,
Be aware that this motorcycle recall list is for the United States for the last 30 days, there is no way I could cover the entire world. But in the world of global manufacturing, if a motorcycle is being recalled in one country there is a good chance it is under recall in others.
Also, this should not be considered a definitive list, check for yourself if you have any questions.
If you are US…

Nearly 20% of riders are women and that number has been growing over the years and I do not expect that growth to end anytime soon. Coming out of the pandemic more people…
Out and about on a short Motorcycle Ride
Motorcycling around Front Royal, VA and the surrounding area is a lot of fun. More than a few nice places as destinations and more than a few good country roads to ride.
Women’s History Month: Women in Motorcycling
My wife mentioned that this is Women’s History month and that I should post something, just not photos of her. LOL
What has happened to Easyriders magazine?
The original Easyriders magazine was a champion of the counterculture, on the road biker symbolized in movies like “Easyrider”. But, as we all know, the printed word is in decline due to the evolution of digital media. From my point of view, magazines

What has happened to Easyriders magazine?
In the lead up to Christmas 2021 when, at a local bookstore, I noticed the latest issue of Easyriders magazine. But that magazine did not look at all correct, it did not have a hot bike and girl on the cover.
In fact, glancing through it at the newsstand, it did not have “really” have any hot bikes and no nude or scantly clothed…
Motorcycle Ride 150 in 9! Front Royal Virginia to Front Royal Virginia
Motorcycle Ride 150 in 9! 
I though I would try my hand at video recording my travels. This ride I wanted to “shoot the gap”, the southern gap of Skyline Drive.

As you can see in the video it…
The LOST Motorcycle Ride
The LOST Motorcycle Ride
Not a long motorcycle ride, about 120 miles, takes us from Front Royal, VA to Lost River State Park, WV and back home. As we pull from the driveway it is an unusually cool summer morning but bright and sunny. The weather app stated that there was zero chance of rain with highs in the upper 70s, a great day for taking the motorcycle out.
By LOST I mean we rode through Lost, WV, along the Lost…

The International Motorcycle Shows (IMS) are returning with Progressive IMS Outdoor.
Typically, I attend the “Big” International Motorcycle Show series that feature all the major manufactures which, normally, occurs in winter in my region of the world.

One reason is how starved I am for in person motorcycle events but also because a friend of this blog is going to be a presenter.
Progressive IMS…
