Copyright (c) 2008 Arnold Hexden As I mentioned in one of my previous posts, I am a big fan of Cyril Huze Blog, Why? Because he speaks a lot of sense. I recently moved from the UK to live here in Spain, I have always followed whats happening in The US with great interest. The economy there is in free fall, which means that the rest of the western world will follow in due course. In his latest post Cyril poses the question " Can you see motorcycle's future?" well, I can't speak for the US, however I can express an opinion on what I feel will happen in the UK and Spain. In the UK people are already reeling from the banks squeezing them for mortgage payments and accrued debt on credit cards which, was...
"There was a farmer had a dog..." You know the rest. For most of us, our first encounter with Bingo is as a farmer's dog. Bingo's legacy as a children's campfire song is undeniable. As we grew up, so did that dog. Bingo mutated from a song to a game. Five column cards filled with random numbers became the essential game of chance. That dog's name became a shout of victory, filled with the joy and satisfaction of beating the odds. For several decades, bingo was played in large halls, where hundreds of people played on game cards of cheap cardboard, hoping for the big score. Over the past decade, the game that owns the name of a farmer's dog has made the jump from the VFW to the WWW. Bingo as a...

Most people buy bikes in order to get around - or to have fun biking cross-country or downhill. However, there's a new rage on the scene, people who like to trick out their bikes - bikes called low riders - and then display them. The lowrider bike looks exactly as you think it would from the name - the seat is set low to the ground and the handlebars are typically higher than the head, indeed they can remind you of "chopper" motorcycles - indeed some are decorated to look exactly like a motorcycle - right down to the faux gas tank. The imagination is the limit when creating a lowrider. When I say it's a rage, I mean just that. People have been known to spend thousands of dollars on their lowrider...

Dirt Bike Tires - Tough...
Dirt bike tires are quite a sine qua non for those untamed, rough or uneven grounds. These tires have knobby; deep treads for that ultimate grip on loose dirt, mud, or gravel.

We're not sure if Carolina actually played a legitimate NFL team this past Sunday. The Vikings are pathetic this year. Everyone on the team is to blame. The only thing we can hope for now is a decent pick in the draft. We're actually at a loss for words to explain how the Vikings could improve. We don't think there's much room for improvement with this group of underachievers. The team suffered another blowout and this time it was at the hands of the Panthers. So what went wrong? 1) Fred Smoot talked a good game prior to playing the Panthers and attempting to cover wide receiver Steve Smith. Prior to game time, Smoot provided some trash talk against Smith. Smoot should have stayed home...

Most families enjoy cycling together for recreational purposes because it is very relaxing and gives them a good chance to become closer. In the past, families only allowed children to ride their bikes in their own neighborhood but the areas where children ride has expanded far from home. The children had very few choices over where they could ride to enjoy nature because the streets were often paved in asphalt and were deep within the city limits. The chance to go cycling in the woods was very limited because the homes that children who could afford bicycles were often located in the middle of suburbia and construction crews had cut most of the trees down when they built the neighborhoods. Families...
Cool Recreational Toys - Past, Present &...
Being a baby boomer, it hasn't been that long ago at least in my mind, that I was a kid and I think back to all the things that we had in the lines of recreation and fun. Boy, I remember waiting for school to get over for the year so we could get into some summer time fun. The first thing that comes to mind in the lines of early recreation was of course the bike. This for all practical purposes was really the only other form of transportation besides walking that we had as kids in order to get to where we wanted to go. Do you remember those days? Bikes back then were pretty simple with only one speed and the ole back peddle braking system. They did eventually come out with the 3 speed which was...
Maintaining Your Bike With Confidence
All metallic objects, including bikes, can rust. If you leave a bicycle outside in the elements, other moisture speeds up the rust process. That kind of corrosion can destroy your bike frame, cease up your steering, or stop your gear and chain. It's just like mom and dad said, put your bike away when you're done using it. What you should do is keep it protected from the elements, in a place like the garage, carport, or shed. You can also put it in your home, just keep it out of the weather. If you are forced to still have your bike outside, it's crucial you at least cover it with some kind of water resistant tarp. Tying it down isn't too difficult, you just put the tarp on top of the bike and use...

Review of the Triumph Thruxton 900
Just as much as it is a motorcycle in its own right, Triumph's Thruxton is a time machine. Just admiring a Thruxton from afar will get images of black Brando jackets, oil-spattered leather boots and striving to break 'The Ton' flitting through your mind, while actually taking one for a spin gets the nostalgia flowing in a torrent. The low-set clip-on 'bars, the gleaming chrome of the bullet headlight and the rasp of the tapered silencers all play their part in sending you back through the decades, when the term 'Café Racer' was born on London's busy city streets, in biker haunts like the Ace Café and the Busy Bee. Fortunately, although its styling harks back to the days when the British bike...

How We Eat With our Eyes and Not our Stomachs
A study was done in Sweden regarding human eating behaviour and what was found from this was very quite interesting, it would seem that most of us eat with our eyes instead of instead of our stomachs so what does this actually mean then. Well it would seem that some of the reasons why people become overweight in the first place is merely how they are eating rather than what they are eating, some people might know this and some people may not, that on average a man say for instance only needs 2550 calories per day, so it will probably easy to see how easy it would to be to eat over that amount I mean how many of us actually write-down in calorific notes how much we eat, I would say 90% of us don't...

Some of you may have heard the kid down the street or even seen the young punk on the corner riding around and what looks like a 10 speed bike. However, if you take a closer look, you'll discover that there aren't 10 speeds on that bike. In fact, you'd probably discover that there is just a single speed. That's because these kids undoubtedly took their parents old Schwinn, took off the derailer, put on a fixed-gear or track-bike hub, took off the brakes, slapped on some crazy "mustache" handle bars, rolled up their pants, and rode down to the closes critical mass ride with their new converted fixed gear (OR spent a few hundred bucks to have someone do it for them). In any regards, fixed gear bikes...
Every now and then I think that Kawasaki Heavy Industries, the parent of the (relatively tiny) motorcycle division, has forgotten about its smallest child. The brand seems to just be marking time, or even giving ground. Remember when they attempted that partial model merger with Suzuki? It looked as though they'd just run out of steam. And them Momma remembers, and suddenly Kawasaki has the most innovative bikes on the block. It happened when they released the only turbo-charged motorcycle worth buying - the GPz750 - and it's just happened again. The ER-6n might look like one of those tiny model bikes you might find in a Kinder Surprise chocolate egg, but so what? The bike's look is futuristic and...
