This event boasts $30,000 in cash and prizes as well as four brand new motorcycle giveaways, one each day of the event. You probably have a better chance of winning something at the rally than you do in the casinos. Just kidding, everyone’s a winner in Vegas.             The highlight of the event for me has always been the Artistry in Iron bike show. This year I will...

            Speaking of peers, this show is unique in that the competing builders are the only voters who determine the winner of the show. This year’s winner of the 2016 Master Builder Championship was Pete Pearson of Rocket Bobs Cycle Works all the way from Jolly Olde England. Of all the bikes entered in the show, I have to admit his was definitely unique. I think I may have...

            Hogs & Heifers Saloon has always been a hot spot during the Las Vegas BikeFest weekend. And, not only with its saloon, but in recent years with its out-side Roadside bar too. The outdoor bar is large enough for at least a dozen wild and crazy bartenders. Believe me, wild and crazy does not even come close to describing the antics of these lovely ladies. If dancing...

            That said, I have always saved one day for my “Ladies of…” photos whenever I cover a large event. I usually photograph the ladies that are working at the event or, if not working, I always ask permission. In almost all cases the ladies are more than happy to pose for a pretty picture. And, if they don’t want their photo taken, I just move on and feel like a perv for...

     As much as I adore going to shows even if there’s not one bike that fits my personal aesthetic and wallet, there’s usually a unofficial show going on outside the facility that I find just as interesting, but in a totally different way. Same goes for Barnett’s Magazine Online’s ever-smiling, hard working lens man, Jack Cofano. Jack never misses a beat when there are good bikes...

Ever since his unfortunate passing almost ten years ago, people have been making Indian Larry tribute bikes, some are good, some just okay, and some have been simply terrible. Luckily there’s still an option of getting the real thing or as absolutely close to the real thing as humanly possible. Bobby and Elisa Seeger, two of the finest people you’ll ever meet, worked alongside...

            For those of you who are not familiar with this event, it is an over 18-year-old rally with a definite adult theme and no law enforcement anywhere to be seen. That fact alone is pretty incredible since in all the years I have attended this event, as crazy as it can get, I have never seen any trouble what so ever.             This rally has tons of events to keep the...

            It’s not about shiny chrome, fancy paint jobs, or expensive customs. It’s all about whatever you can put together with two wheels, a motor, and a full tank of gas. Whether it started out as a Harley-Davidson, Yamaha, BSA, Triumph, etc., these garage-built old timers are a testament to the dedication and ingenuity put into giving these bikes another chance to tear up the...

            The event was advertised as “5 Days+1,000 Miles=1,000,000 Stories” and with absolutely perfect weather along with some of the greatest motorcycle roads in the country, everyone would remember this event for a long time.              The event started on Wednesday, the 7th of September, in Asheville, North Carolina, a go-to destination at any time of the year. That was a...
