Some people leave the property to tour the area, go to town, or just to get some fresh unscented air. The cops are waiting just off of property for those who think they can get away with driving infractions. Be warned, they’re experts at spotting infractions of the vehicle code.       Anyway, there is no need to leave the property until Sunday after sunrise as all...

           My only regret is that I didn’t start this photo gig in my twenties. I might have even had a snowball’s chance in hell of getting to know one of these lovely ladies a little better. Yea, like that would have happened!  

     If you’re a custom bagger freak, you should be able to fantasize to your heart’s content and maybe find some ideas to perk up your otherwise fabulous Motor Company tourer. Maybe it’s just a paintjob or a wheel design or a custom seat that put’s the sparkle in your eye, but if you have a liking for over-the-top custom baggers, Jack’s shot something that will get your adrenalin...

     The Hideaway Grill had the crowd but Mark Bradshaw’s other joint, the Cave Creek Tap Haus had the big wheel bike show with lots of builders and vendors and a sizable crowd. How crowded? Two lanes of Cave Creek’s four lanes were turned into bike parking. The Buffalo Chip Saloon & Steakhouse (no connection to the Sturgis campground with a similar name) and the...

      The music was local and better than most. It was a hot day by my standards, but cool by Phoenix standards. As a point of info, the locals don’t call it hot unless it’s over 115-degrees in the shade.     There was a squad of Phoenix cops under the command of a sergeant along with in-house security keeping their eyes open for what I don’t know. Of course, the...

    It’s only the 25th anniversary of Dream Machines if anniversaries are important in your decision whether to attend an event or not. It’s not in mine as I’m more concerned about the content, location and ambiance rather than a mythical celebratory number. Too many people go to over-hyped, over-crowded, and over-priced events based on some mythical digit or two...

        As far as the short articles I have to write for these photos, I might as well write about flesh – eating bacteria because no one is going to care about the gibberish I write. You want to see the ladies from the Charlotte Easyriders Show and I don’t blame you.

   Did the estimate of rally attendees really amount to half-a-million or do some people see in double vision? Are there now more bike shows than wet T-shirt contests and have the vendors run out of new gimmicks items to sell? Seems like it. I didn’t see one SOA T-shirt for sale. Maybe if zombies rode motorcycles they could sell Riding Dead  T-shirts. Just a thought.    The final...

            The Boardwalk Bike Show was a big success although I wasn’t happy about the way the bikes were set up this year. With all the room on the boardwalk there is no reason to park the bikes so close together. Makes my job a real nightmare. The good news is that five builders were selected at the boardwalk show to compete at the IMBBA event in Dubai all-expenses-paid. They...
