THE SHERIFF REACHES OUT TO BILLY LANE–A short report from the ashes, Icelandic volcano kill all air-traffic in Europe. Girlfriend stuck in Amsterdam!
Anyway I send 19 photos from Daytona to Billy Lane. Today I received the package back from his camp. They only allowed 15 pages of paper………… so one photo is considered one page. So they returned it back to me without even giving the letter to Billy!!
I will send just ten next week.
As for Sturgis I bought a bonus flight to Chicago $65 roundtrip 9-20 Aug.
Last but not least, my daughter wrote a piece about Daytona for In The Wind magazine. She is 22, so it was kinda ironic about all old visitors. Story killed by Paisano, I thought they were more flexible

A PAGE OF THE CODE OF THE WEST WAS DISCOVERED IN 14 PALMS CALIFORNIA IN THE TRUNK OF A ’59 CADILLAC–Be the kind of man that when your feet hit the floor each morning,the devil says “Oh Crap, he’s up!”
Brother, life is too short to wake up with regrets.
So love the people who treat u right. Love the ones who don’t, just because you can.
Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands.If it changes your life, let it.
Kiss slowly. Forgive quickly.God never said life would be easy. He just promised it would be worth it.
A real Brother walks with you when the rest of the world walks on.

Indian Motorcycle Fresno Sets Grand Opening–Indian dealerships are springing up all over, and a second California dealership is set to open in Fresno.
Matt Herwaldt, scion of an auto dealer family, will open the new Indian Motorcycle Fresno store in the same location as Herwaldt Subaru and Herwaldt Saturn.
?Motorcycles are a passion for my family,? Herwaldt told the Clovis Independent. ?It?s always been a dream of ours to have a motorcycle dealership.?
The Herwaldt family applied for the franchise as soon as they heard the newest owners were looking for California dealers.
Indian Motorcycle Fresno?s May 22 and 23 grand opening comes just a month after the only other Indian dealership in California ? Indian Motorcycle Los Angeles — celebrates its grand opening. They are among only 23 Indian dealers in North America.

BIKERNET INSURANCE GURU TWO CENTS ON NEW BIKERNET WEBSITE DESIGN– Your new design has got real potential and looking forward to the final product. Here’s some observations:
Is the brown-black back-ground your intent? My two cents, the Roland Sands site is cool for a parts custom guy but too dark to capture the essence of your entire Bikernet audience in my opinion.
I agree with your comment to Robintek about the page being “stronger” and “bolder”.
New site should reflect a more kick-ass, optimistic, freedom-lovin’, independent, biker lifestyle that captures the hearts, head and souls of the motorcycle community worldwide.
The American flag colors inter-twined somewhere on the site would not hurt it either.
Where will your Bikernet VIP department be located?
Hey, this advice is free so trash it if ya don’t like it.

Intruders Foundation Seminar Series–The IF Seminar Series PresentsHistorian Dr. David M. Jacobs and Budd Hopkins, Executive Director of the Intruders FoundationIn a two-part program Updates and New Cases.
On Saturday evening, April 24, IF will present its first seminar of the year. It will feature historian Dr. David M. Jacobs and Budd Hopkins, director of the Intruders Foundation, in a two-part program “Updates and New Cases.”
In their dialogue on the current state of UFO abduction research, Dr. Jacobs, author of “Secret Life” and “The Threat”, will discuss the issue of hybrid beings interacting with humans here on earth, a subject he has touched on before that he continues to investigate. It remains a fascinating topic of serious interest to the research community.
Budd Hopkins, author of “Missing Time”, “Intruders” and “Witnessed”, as well as a recent memoir, “Art, Life and UFOs”, will concentrate on abduction cases he is currently investigating and will update the audience on new developments in a few ongoing cases.
Finally, in something of a change from our familiar program format, we hope to provide more time than usual for the Q & A portion of the evening in order to allow for a more extensive dialogue with the audience.
Thus, in our April 24th IF seminar we are offering the audience not only an extended opportunity to interact with these two accomplished UFO abduction investigators, but also the chance to learn more about cutting-edge research in the field. We urge you to attend this important event.

BIKERNET STAFF SCANDAL– Bikernet Metric Editor was walking home late at night and saw a woman in the shadows.
”Twenty dollars’ she whispers. Bubba had never been with a hooker before, but decides what the hell, it’s only twenty bucks So they hide in the bushes.
They’re ‘engaged’ for a minute when all of a sudden a light flashes on them. It is a police officer.
‘What’s going on here, people?’ asks the officer.
‘I’m making love to my wife!,’ Bubba answers sounding annoyed.
‘Oh, I’m sorry,’ says the cop, ‘I didn’t know’
‘Well, neither did I, ’til ya shined that light in her face! ”

BIKERNET UNIVERSITY HISTORY DEPARTMENT CRUCIAL FINDINGS– They used to use urine to tan animal skins, so families used to all peein a pot & then once a day it was taken & sold to the tannery.
If you hadto do this to survive you were “Piss Poor”. But worse than that were thereally poor folk who couldn’t even afford to buy a pot.
They “Didn’thave a pot to Piss in” & were the lowest of the low.

THAT WAS QUICK–Media was hit recently. I’ve complained about their constant negativity and bullshit attacks on anything that moves. Well, the WEEK magazine reported last week that CNN viewership has dropped in half. I’d like to run this entire report from Eric Effron, but here’s a clip:?there’s simply a dwindling audience for a network that offers “the view from nowhere.” (Ouch.) Every night on Fox and MSNBC, we can watch O’Reilly, Olbermann and the rest preaching to their choirs, interviewing guests guaranteed to agree with them, and clobbering the other side (and often the other network) with the respective outrage of the day?How about if instead, CNN carved out a different niche?
Interesting. It’s finally coming around, the Bikernet code, “No Negative Waves.” That’s actually a line from Donald Southerland in Kelly’s Heroes. It always stuck with me. How about the old adage, “If you don’t have anything good to say, don’t say anything.”
Okay, this just in regarding one of our tech projects:
The good news is that we just got our cam blanks in TODAY! Talk aboutyour serendipity,” said Bruce Tessmer from S&S. “That means that by the middle of next week we willhave your cams. If everything comes to he who waits, we should have mostof it by now.”
Just to recap the project: This is a 2002 Dyna. We will install a new S&S 97″top end kit, a set of chain drive cams, S&S tappets, and Quickeepushrods. “I’m suggesting the 583 cams,” Bruce added. “It’s kind of a cross between the551 and 585. A good overall performance cam, but really good torque.”
We will need to source the H-D hydraulic chain-tensioner retro fit kit. We have a set of Bubs pipes to install on this Dyna. We also have a Bubs slip-on muffler for a 2010 and a Wimmer intake system. Soon you will be able to review almost any exhaust intake system on Bikernet.
Here’s the Bikernet weekend rundown. Tomorrow I will launch Todd’s Speed King feature (above), what a cool bike. I’ll interview Rusty, at Illusions, over sushi, for a Cycle Source bike feature (below). Here’s a couple of teaser shots.
Saturday we will wrap up the 1934 VL and send it down the road. Sunday we will install the Bubs slip-on and Wimmer intake on Jeremiah’s new FLH. If I’m able to accomplish all these project by Sunday afternoon, plus publish a stellar informative Sunday Post, I’m going to take Monday off. What the fuck. Even an old criminal needs a break. As we hammered out the spit-shined news a tech rolled in on sprucing up an early twin cam Softail. Then Jeff Najar sent us a party article covering the recent Rick Fairless, Strokers Dallas show. Hang on.
Ride Forever,
