No, not a conspiracy post but a bike post. On Tuesday I made an appropriate deposit on the ’86 Shadow VT1100. Checking in with the dealer today and the bike is still inline to be serviced and I will get a call from the sales guy tomorrow with a status update from the service manager. [...]

As the summer winds down my thoughts have returned to bikes so yesterday I trotted to a local dealership I frequented “back in the day”. I vividly [...]
Part of my day off today was spent at a local bike shop. Not much there in the way of cruisers suitable for the missus and me but an ugly duckling in the corner absolutely caught my eye, a BMW R1100R. It was in excellent condition, doubly so since the odometer showed 61k miles though [...]
