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!
Awesome future motolady / motokid submission-
This is a picture of my Niece (Sidney) and Nephew (Jack) sitting on my slightly broken 1198. I somehow kicked the mirror off when I laid it down after a lady pulled out in front of my, in the picture you can kind of see the road rash down my left arm. This was taken the same day that I bought Sidney her first motorcycle……she is 5 years old! I explained to her the importance of wearing here gear (more or less just had to show her my arm and leg and she got the point). Just thought I would share an up and coming Moto Lady with you!
My friend Adrian Capurso, who lent me the truck and RC-51 for the Bonneville Salt Flat trip, came to Portland yesterday! Today we took him for a fall ride and surprise- it ended with us getting soaked. We were able to hit some good roads before the rain and Adrian was stoked… twisties galore for the RC.
We went to Multnomah Falls, drove down Historic Highway 30, and took the freeway back after it started the Portland rain.

In the words of Johnny Cash-
I’ll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,
‘til things are brighter, I’m the Man In Black.
Stills from the video I shot today and earlier this week. Should be cool when it’s done, I’m happy with my footage.
Big thanks to Taylor Ramsauer (pictured) for cooperating (mostly) with my requests. ;)

A behind the scenes photo from the tmobile motolady “No More Mr. Nice Girl” photo shoot.
Yeah, definitely had to post this T-Mobile commercial that’s been circling the interwebs. Ducati + motolady + closet full of pink crap = Screw this, let’s go ride.

Side note- it continues to boggle my mind, the smallness of the world (especially if you’re in the moto industry). I randomly found the GarneyGirl Etsy shop yesterday, and come to find out she’s local to me. Crazytown, I tell ya.
Another Monster project teaser… ze forks! Superbike 748 front forks on a 750 Monster. Yes please and thank you. Soon, I’ll update you with the whole front end process.
Leslie Hubbard Kramer with her 848Evo- yes she is standing up! Leslie is 4’11” on a bike that usually has almost 33” seat height. MotoCorsa lowered it a couple inches for her, but still- no more excuses from petite ladies!
Mike Levin (of Icon) has a super awesome military styled SuperDuc. He should get an award for that thing.
