    Mother of All Mexico Dirt Bike Rides - March in 2015!

    Today is my one year anniversary for rotator cuff surgery and I've had enough of this BS. They don't call me Keener for nothing. So today in early prep for the trip, I changed my oil, lubed my chained, ordered a new battery (the other was 4 years old). Tires look good. Will change my brake and...

    Official SW-FOG 2015 Announcement: 5/28-31, THU-SUN!

    Yes we will. What the hell are you going to do if you are not planning motorcycle trips? Stay home, drink beer, eat chips and watch Jeopardy all day?? One way or another, we will all get together, have fun and call it a day

    If there was one album, to make everyone here listen to, what would it be?

    Without a doubt, hands down, no holds barred. John Mayall, the Bluesbreakers, "California" from the album The Turning Point Here is the lineup form the 1969 Newport Jazz Festival! He played Saturday night, under the stars. It is a nine minute song and after the first minute, there was no other...

    Why do you ride?

    Why do you ride? I ride because I can, because my mind, my body and a machine all work together, because it is as close to flying while still on the ground. As Hunter S. Thompson once said "Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death."
