Riding Into History

Last weekend I had the opportunity to ride back home. I left early Saturday morning to meet up with a few friends in St. Augustine for breakfast. If you're ever in the Historic District of St. Augustine, swing by La Herencia for a bite. They make an awesome open face omelette. Afterward we all traded off bikes and I had the pleasure of riding my good friend Curtis' '53 Panhead to "Riding Into History", an annual vintage motorcycle show which is all for charity. This year it was The Wounded Warrior Project. We all had a great time, as always... I even ran into my good friend Jason from Dime City Cycles. Here are a few shots from the day, the first is one of Jason's build.

More Miles Ahead

Looks like I'll be making the trip from Orlando to Jax a bit more often starting next weekend. The old lady is moving back home, which gives me even more reason to make the trip. This picture is from yesterday's ride back to Orlando. Next weekend I'm helping her move and lucky me, I get to drive the moving truck.

Space Junk

I was graced with a Friday off and had nothing on my agenda so I jumped on the Sporty and headed east toward Merritt Island, which is home to the Kennedy Space Center. I ran across this NASA junkyard that had some pretty rad stuff on the other side of the fence. With my work schedule getting changed around I hope to have more time in the near future to explore central Florida a bit more.

DesmoHarley

Chris Barber created this Frankenstein of a motor by mixing a little Italian love with some American engineering. Take an H-D Evolution engine and throw some Ducati heads on her. Easy? Doubtful. But wow, what an awesome concept made into a reality.

Race Threads

My good friend landed a job at Stand 21 last month. He showed me what he gets to do all day by making up this prototype Harley race suit. Even threw my name on the front pocket and everything. Pretty cool gig he's got going. It's refreshing seeing close friends doing what they love.
