Well... It's official Peggy has a “biker name”, I want to thank all that participated and want to let everyone know that each entry was painstakingly reviewed and discussed. As it should be, she picked a name with a history and a story. So what is the name you ask?????



"GRABBER"


A fitter name will never grace the asphalt of bikerdom, the story of this name will be told far and beyond. This truly is how legends are born. (Ok so I got carried away, but its still a cool name)

Note: those of you who have a problem keeping your mind clean (dave) the story is very cute.

If there is enough interest for the story I will ask her to put it to print (for the unenlightened posted it to the blog).

To date things are ready to go , we fly out Sunday the 13th and start the adventure. Again, I will try to keep everyone posted as to what we are up to and take pictures. I still haven't been able to get around the video problems but will be taking videos the entire trip and will put them together for a future feature project. (whatever the hell that means...)


Aloha...k

( I think this is a mixed metaphor ) ( See, this is why I don't do this...I'm confused ) And at this writing I can only think of one I had heard a while back: “No matter what your parents tell you, It's ok to rev your own engine as high as you want, and you won't burnout your headlight.” I'll let you figure that one out. One of the best motorcycle metaphors was Mark Harmon in the movie “Summer School”. ( Buy the DVD, I'm t...

Nothing is more frustrating than the feeling that every time I fill-up the tank, I am sending my money to people who are trying to kill me, my family, and my friends.

(oil is now $55-$60 a barrel) Here are some large companies that do not import Middle Eastern oil: Sunoco...................0 barrels Conoco..................0 barrels Sinclair.................0 barrels BP/Phillips.........
