2003 Sportster 1200

Well, I did it. After I took the BRC and got my license, I went out and bought a motorcycle. It’s been almost a month now and I’m loving it. Today I put an engine guard on that I got off ebay so that’s why I finally got around to taking pictures. I got myself […]

basic rider course

I passed my BRC this weekend. The class was a lot of fun, and had about 1/3 women which was pretty cool. Went to the DMV today to trade in my paperwork for the M on my license but the system was down (statewide, awesome) so I have to go back tomorrow. I have my […]

Long Way Round

I finally got the DVDs for Long Way Round, Ewan MacGregor and Charley Boorman’s 2004 round the world motorcycle trip. They had filmed it and turned it into a show, which apparently aired on Bravo but I never saw it. I had to order the DVDs from amazon.ca because I wasn’t finding them still available […]

BRC

I’m signed up to take the Basic Rider Course on the last weekend of March. My plan is to start getting gear ahead of time and then find a good used bike in April. I’m thinking a HD Sportster 1200. I was planning on the 883 but I’ve been told that when riding with others […]

Honda Dream

I just found out today that my grandfather had a 1965 Honda Dream. He still has it in pieces laying around the garage. My uncle started to restore it about 20 years ago before he got sick. I would love to be involved in restoring something like that. 1960s bike styles are my favorite.

bike/car

I’ve been looking at bikes again. With the gorgeous weather we’ve been having lately, there’s been tons of them out. Also my one friend and her boyfriend just got some (Ninja 250s). I have to buy a car this summer but I’m thinking I’ll get a bike next summer. I’ve been looking at the Vulcan […]

obsessed again

I’ve decided that for my “You made it through Drexel without killing yourself and got a job afterwards” present to myself, I need a bike. Well first I need to make it to June and get a job. Hopefully one where I make a decent amount of money. Triumph Bonneville T100 Honda Shadow Spirit HD […]
