95 Runs in this year will i make 100 before the snow?


   Hey guys and gals . I've set a goal  to make 80 runs on my bike  this year . I only got on the road in late July . So I reached my  goal of 80 runs , but now I'm trying for  100 runs .Its November 6th as of the writing of this  article . Nearly 6000km (4000 miles) later I'm happy as a clam . It was a fun  goal to set .Next year will be even better.


The snow has already started . It doesn't stay long at the moment . So who knows maybe  ill get the last five runs in . Either way at this point  I've ridden 95 out of 365 days . How many days did you get in this year ? Ride well ride safe take care.

ATGATT vs SQUID ?

      All. The . Gear .All .The . Time. VS  Squid riders ?  Ok ATGATT makes sense  but what is a squid ? Well  you could say to be polite  anyone who doesn't  wear proper gear. Now we are all guilty of  doing this ,self included . Years ago when I use to ride my 1948 Panhead  I  use to be the biggest squid . Didn't I have  good riding gear ? Yes !  But it was too hot two ware  the jacket  , my jeans  were good enough  and  tennis shoes  were  comfier then  boots . Yip that was me then lol . So what has  changed for me now ? Well  this time around my 22 years older  and  ponder my invincibility  a lot  more lol. I believe  we should be confident when we ride but also  realistic as well . If we watch  world super bike races we see some of the vary best riders in the world . And yes the go down form time to time . Here is the scenar...

  Keep your dang feet on the pegs ! Yes you heard me lol . Ok so what am I talking about ? Well let me paint the picture for you. When I took a motorcycle  course  years ago  they  taut us  to  come to a stop using both  brakes . Then you  put your feet down . Ok sounds normal right ? Ok let me go further  ,  now  your at the light  with  both your feet down  , light turns  green you start to  go  your feet are dangling  through the intersection  THEN! it happens  a smurf runs out in front of   you . You try to swerve  but  because  your feet are dangling  your bike wobbles unbalanced instead  of  steering  and manoeuvring.  You grab the front  brake  with the  handle bars  turned ,,,, SKUPUNK!! flop on the ground you go! What just happened ?  Simple you were not in full control of the bike.   Fast forw...
