For the last 12 years this event was held at the beautiful Cashman Center that turned it from a small downtown event into a first-class national motorcycle event. Hands-down this was my favorite event to cover each year. The Cashman Center included The Artistry in Iron custom bike show, rally events as well as first-class vendors that you would normally not see at a...

              Last year and especially this year I had to deal with who I’d like to call the “Bike Show Nazi.” You know ─ the guy who is put into a position of power and it goes to his head. Last year I had to beg and plead to get in 45 minutes before the show. This year the Bike Show Nazi not only was disrespectful, he told me, and I quote, “You don’t even belong in this...

 

              Actually in Las Vegas it’s not all that hard as there are lovely ladies everywhere you look. On top of that they just love to have their pictures taken. And, I am more than happy to oblige. I don’t know how long I can take it, though, because it gets really hard at times.             I hope to continue my quest, but alas, times are a changin’ and who knows where my...

      I’ve know Bill for years from crossing paths with him at events around the country, but this is the first opportunity to see his workshop and take some pictures of bikes being created. He has about 35 bikes built or being built in this one-man shop. Most of his builds weigh-in, road ready, under 400 lbs.     For more information on Bling’s Cycles, please visit...

       The World’s Most Famous Beach is a joke and not a funny one. There used to be all-night parking, fire pits, real partying and now ─ nada! There used be 42 miles of drivable, race-able beach and now there aren’t 20 miles. And that 20 miles is actually in short stretches and barely useable because all the hotels didn’t want driving in front of their property. So it...

     In this gas station Bill did what gas station guys did and in between pumping gas and changing oil, he promoted racing on the sands of the then World Famous Beach. In between all this he hatched an idea and formed the National Association of Stock Car Auto Racing in 1947 that has gone to become what we know of as NASCAR today.      Over the years the gas station had new...

     Also Corbin’s popular bike show was held on Saturday during the busiest day in the area. The show was held on lush green grass just like Quail and Pebble Beach with plaques and about five grand cash being awarded. The show was dedicated to the memory of the late Biker Bob Warford who ran all of Corbin’s previous shows. This year’s show was put in the hands of the...
