Video: As the Sun Sets

A video about the somber feeling one gets when riding season comes to a close- when we often hold on to each last moment the sun is still kissing the asphalt and the roads are still dry.

Hopping on a motorcycle after work for even the shortest jaunt can be a meditative experience.

An Interview with Photographer Ray Gordon

image

Ever wanted to know a magician’s secrets? I’ll admit, seeing Ray Gordon’s photography over the years has often left me in a state of wonder. How, why, where?! What on earth came upon someone and compelled them to drive a Camaro off a cliff? I got the chance to ask him all these questions and more.

His project THROTTLED was most recently displayed at the fourth annual One Motorcycle Show in February (check out my review of the One Moto 2013 here) and helped set the tone for the entire event. Chances are you’ve seen his work before- like in the shot I posted of Tori and Amy riding a minibike on the beach, or on countless motorcycle and hotrod websites.

Can you name that motorcycle? My good friend Chris Herrin beginning his speed sleeve- getting tattooed by Matthew Mattison (Little Tattoo Shoppe, Portland Oregon).  Matthew is the go-to tattoo artist for most motorcyclists in Portland. At least most of the ones I know! He did both my MotoLady and Faster Faster tattoos.

Bikes, bubble visors, mini moto, mini bonfire, beer, art, give aways… highlights of last night. 

More, more, more photos later. Again, thank you to everyone who attended or helped make this End of the World Ride & Last Party on Earth come to fruition!

She’s gonna be a beauty. More photos from putting the first bit of her back together soon. The little scissor marks and arrows are where the frame is chopped and the seat is getting chopped to match. [ more from the Monster Project ]

The greybeards know best. When all else fails, and you try every way you know… see the wise old mechanics. (Photo by yours truly.) My Monster cush drives were a total pain… wouldn’t come out to save my life. Visited my friend Shelby Shaffer and his Grandpa… they were out within 40 minutes. Full story later… I have to go enjoy the last of this dry weather in Portland.  [ see more from the Monster Project ]

Incredible art by Dika Toolkit- MotoLady the graphic novel version. He calls the character Taz.

Follow his Instagram (@tookit04) and facebook. His work is amazing. I feel so honored to have been drawn by such a talented artist!

What happens when you put a bunch of bikers with a warped sense of humor in a Ducati shop together? You get the one-of-a-kind, often-imitated-never-duplicated MotoCorsa family. This photoshoot is a good example of the lengths we’ll go for our customers… even if it’s to make them laugh, cry, and/or want to vomit. ;)

To all the people who are sick and tired of seeing bikini clad babes draped over bikes… this is for you. I can only tell you how lucky I feel to work with this group of dudes. 

Make sure you go check out all the 1199 MANigale photos on the MotoCorsa website.

Photography by yours truly, MotoLady!

Look! My photography made it to MotoGP! I had to share this immediately- my friend Justin Kwong in CA sent me this photo from Laguna Seca… a photo from the MotoCorsa 1199 Panigale shoot made it to print for the Make-A-Wish foundation! Kylie Lewallen gives the Panigale a little kiss. Two beauties, for sure! Happy happy, joy joy! Special thanks to MotoCorsa.

Here’s a photo of me and my new bike (1992 Yamaha TDM 850) in the epic winds of Eastern Washington! Taken on HWY 97 coming back from Yakima when we were stopped waiting for a pilot car to take us and 30 other vehicles through the pass.
