Shout out to the ref for bumping the leg as he casually stepped over Nurkic.

Brit here. You are the first person ever to commit the phrase ‘British rail has their act together’to print. Never thought to see this in my lifetime. Will be copying this comment to everyone in my address book. And photographing this screen to prove that a real person actually said this.

I recently took Amtrak for the first time returning home from central IL to east TX. It’s an 11-12 hour drive, a 4-6 hour flight with a connection (or a considerably larger ask for a friend on the other end to come pick me up in DFW), and a ~17-hour train ride. The train actually takes me right to the small town I…

Don’t eat at Chipotle.  

I like the final fantasy compromise. you can unlock everything eventually, but you can only slot specific amounts of “points” in any active build. so you can eventually have things, but are limited in being able to have it at one time. so you may have a stealth build broadly speaking.  but when you have that, you…

Amazing article. I was positively giddy over seeing the FTR at IMS here in Chicago—the most excited I’ve been about an American bike since Indian was first revived.

Essentially, yes they have been. But they got HEAVY into flat track racing a few years back and have been cleaning up at the races and are now translating that into a new bike/market based on that success.

Maybe I’ve just been out of the loop but....That’s an INDIAN?!? Wow, I thought they only did big retro-ish cruisers.

How much does it cost to have a custom Kangaroo suit made? Are you in the US or in Australia?

I second Miss Mercedes on this. Go take an MSF course and get back on a bike. I took a few years off and last year started commuting on nice days to work on a 1995 Buell S2. I honestly cannot wait to get back on the bike as soon as PA warms back up.

Doooooo it! Take a MSF course and get back into the groove! :) Now is an exceptionally good time to get back on two wheels. There are so many awesome new bikes out there and the used market is even more amazing. There’s something for everyone and not everything costs a fortune. :D

...they could be riding jeans....

Nice! the more moto-content the happier i am!

I must have this

Reminds me of this guy.

Well, the Grand Duchy of Finland declared independence from Russia in 1917 after the Russian revolution. Russia attempted to invade in ‘39/40 but only succeeded in claiming about 11% of Finnish territory. Then, once operation Barbarossa kicked off, Finland fought back. However, a resurgent Russia in ‘44 led to another…

I don’t want to have to say this but...

Thanks for posting this Jason. I feel like a much better husband now

Sure.

Here you go, this is how it arrived. I’ll be keeping the open pipes, dented as they are, but I’ve ditched the comedy apes for a set of rusty, period Renthals. Not touching the paint or cosmetics, but all bearings have been replaced, the brakes and forks have been rebuilt, and, as mentioned, the engine has been gone…
