This guy bench presses (four times?!) a woman on top of an oldschool Ducati. You know, the heavy ones… not one of them newfangled 360 lbs weighing bikes.

Thanks for sending this to me, Jonah!

Building a bad ass motorcycle community in your region is not impossible! I get lots of messages from people saying they envy living on the West Coast, in Portland, etc because we have such an awesome group of motorcyclists and throw cool events, rides and such.

Well, take it from Stormie Ray, you don’t need a huge shop or an epic ride planned. Stormie throws “Wrench Wednesdays” at her place where everyone can show up and work on their projects and put their heads together with other enthusiasts.

Try throwing your own wrench-fest, BBQ or potluck… start growing your community! And send me pictures. :)

Got an email today that made me laugh and then warmed my heart.

“Realized I might be a Moto Nut when I photoshopped my helmet on my baby’s ultrasound pic when announcing to the world that my wife and I are having our first child…” (from Benjamin Walker)

Moto dads are the coolest dads…

Sometimes motorcycling and marketing are mated perfectly… as seen in the Nudist Motorcycle Safety PSA video. The same is true for this Shark helmet video. The difference between real protection and a false feeling of safety is shown in stark contrast in this somewhat extreme motorcycle helmet test.

MacGyver wouldn’t even have tried this and Chuck Norris’ giant head alone would have sunk the dinghy. These guys are bad ass.

This Yamaha RD350 advertisement is a picture of historical perfection. Hilarious, effective, and many would say… rather accurate.

“Don’t feel bad. You’re not the first 750 rider to get blown off by a Yamaha 350.”

From the reality series Alaska State Troopers-

A man runs from the police because he doesn’t have a motorcycle license. When they ask him what he was doing, “Some questions are better left for another time.”

HAHAHA.

Motorcycle sale ad of the YEAR. It’s only March and I think this really would be a hard one to beat.

See the advert on TradeMe.co.nz, and read below for a little excerpt.

Hi. I’m Suzi. I’m a GN250. I’m the motorbike of your dreams.
The guy in the pictures with me is my owner. I taught him how to drive a motorbike. I took his fat ass everywhere. I carried him and his girlfriend to many awesome places. I even taught her to drive a bit too. Everyday when he needed me to go to work, to the supermarket, or to go and have brunch by the beach, I was there. EVERYDAY. Now, all of the sudden, he wants a car. Pft. Apparently I’m no good to carry a drum kit around. A ridiculous point, but I got the message. After a heated argument and a couple tears, I decided it was time to find a new fat ass to drive me.
