Biketoberfest shot from Rogue.
Life is strange, wonderful, violent and always a challenge. I got a few slick words for Mohammed. Makes you wonder what makes people tick. Take for instance yesterday. I was in the dojo pounding the heavy bag while Dick Bondano scolded me on my technique. In the afternoon the Professor and I went to work on the Amazing Shrunken FXR. Nuttboy had just returned from Ireland and the project is underway once more. With the help of Kenny’s Samson trash pile we have almost fabricated our own set of exhaust.
Damn, sometimes I don’t get it. When we live in a country packed with creativity, opportunities and beautiful women, why the hell hurt others? Sure there’s a jackass on every corner, but who cares, I’ve got motorcycles to build, bikes to ride and women to touch. What more could you ask for. Speaking of women…well let’s get to the news. I’ll touch on them later:
THE BIKERNET POND– An old farmer had owned a large farm for several years. He had a largepond in the back forty, had it fixed up nice; picnic tables, horseshoe courts, basketball court, etc. The pond was fixedfor swimming when it was built. One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the pond, as he hadn’t been there fora while, and look it over. As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee. As he came closerhe saw it was a bunch of young women skinny dipping in his pond. He made the women aware of his presence and they allwent to the deep end of the pond.
One of the women shouted to him, “We’re not coming out until you leave!” The old man replied, “I didn’t come down here to watch you ladies swim ormake you get out of the pond, I only came to feed my alligators.”

KID ROCK RIDES Kid Rock, who has bragged in song of how you’ve never met a motherf—er quite like him, has got something else to boast about.The boisterous Detroit MC has signed on to play the leader of a bad-ass motorcycle gang in the upcoming film “Biker Boyz,” according to production company DreamWorks SKG. Directed by Reggie Rock Bythewood, who penned the upcoming DMX flick “Cradle 2 the Grave,” the movie stars Laurence Fishburne and Lisa Bonet.The flick, which is being plugged as a western on motorcycles, tells the true story of motorcycle club president Manuel Galloway (Fishburne), who is known as the King of Cali. His unusual entourage includes lawyers and other white-collar professionals who moonlight as bikers and cruise the country with the King and his girlfriend, Queenie (Bonet).
The supporting cast includes Orlando Jones (“The Replacements”), Brendan Fehr (TV’s “Roswell”), Meagan Good (“3 Strikes”), Djimon Hounsou (“Gladiator”), Larenz Tate (“Dead Presidents”), Melissa De Sousa (“Miss Congeniality”), Salli Richardson, Terence Howard, Vanessa Bell Calloway, Rick Gonzalez, Derek Luke and Dante and Dion Basco.
The film marks Rock’s third acting venture. Last year, he read the voice of Kidney Rock in “Osmosis Jones” and played in Joe Dirt as Robby, a redneck bully who taunts David Spade’s lead character.”Biker Boyz” was written by Craig Fernandez and based on a New Times L.A. article by Michael Gougis.

CREATIVITY RULES–This illustration, “Thunder On A Wall” by Fritz, is an just one indications why this country and the freedoms we have rules.
For those who are not familiar with this award-winning artist, it iseasily seen that he is extremely passionate about his work. Tom has aparticular style and brushstroke, which allows him to bring his subjects tolife. The way he integrates intense colors and soft lines makes his imagesjump off the canvas.
In the next couple of days we’ll launch an article about Segal Fine Arts who represent Fritz and all the guys who are Harley-Davidson licensed artists. You’ll see art that as made grown bikers cry.
Say goodnight to the bad guy ? wait, I mean hello to the new guy!–Dirtbags and fluzies – as the newest Bikernet operative I guess some introductions are in order. The name?s Big Truth; I?m transmitting to you from Boston, MA. My mission is to cover local events, profile bike builders, and throw some tech articles in your eyes from time-to-time.
Bandit suggested that I start off with a profile of my company (Choppahead) so that you can get a little familiar with my background and what I do. Choppahead is a greasy, grimy, gritty, hardcore chopper oriented clothing, parts, and mayhem machine company. I got this thing off the ground a year and a half ago and since then it?s grown into a monstrous industrial giant. I?m hell-bent on world domination and everyday I laugh menacingly while rubbing my hands as I watch fleets of trucks ship my evil wares out to the unsuspecting world. Mwoohahaha! POP! (Hear them daydreams shatter back to reality?) Actually, I still operate out of a hidden garage located in a murky Boston alleyway. No storefront. My garage (which three of us share) is my shop and warehouse; my bedroom is my office and multimedia studio. And you thought hi-fashion and chopper building was all glamour?
Read the final complete blood-thirst version on Bikernet in the next couple of days.
BIKERNET PERSONALS–A lonely spinster, aged 70, decided that it was time to getmarried. She decided to put an ad in the local paper that read:
“HUSBAND WANTED, must be in my age group, must not beat me, mustnot run around on me, and must still be good in bed! All applicants apply in person.”
On the second day she heard the doorbell. Much to her dismay sheopened the door to see a gray haired gentleman sitting in a wheel chair. He had no arms or legs. She asked sardonically, “You’re notreally asking me to consider you, are you? Just look at you…you have no legs!”
The old man smiled, “Therefore I cannot run around on you!”
She snorted, “You don’t have any hands either!”
Again the old man smiled. “Therefore, I cannot beat you!”
She raised an eyebrow and gazed intently, “Are you still good inbed?”
The old gentleman beamed a broad smile. “I rang the doorbell,didn’t I?”

NEW SMYRNA BEACH –BIKETOBERFEST IS NOT ALL FUN AND GAMES–Excerpts from MARK I. JOHNSON article (mark.johnson@news-jrnl.com)Staff Writer.
As the 2002 edition of the fall pilgrimage of black leather, bright chrome and loud pipes wraps up today, many are hoping the estimated 100,000 visitors riding into the sunset will leave behind a lot of their money.
“I am hoping to make about $1,000 by Sunday night,” said Lisa Paiardi, who is selling beer outside Gilly’s Pub 44 during the biker holiday. But peering into her only quarter-full tip bucket Thursday afternoon, a look of doubt crosses her face. “It’s not too promising right now.”

BUBBA One day, Jimmy Joe was walking down Main Street when he saw his buddy Bubba driving a brand new pickup. Bubba pulled up to him with a wide grin.
“Bubba, where’d you get that truck?!?”
“Bobby Sue gave it to me” Bubba replied.
“She gave it to you? I knew she was kinda sweet on ya, but a new truck?”
“Well, Jimmy Joe, let me tell you what happened. We were driving out on County Road 6, in the middle of nowhere. Bobby Sue pulled off the road, put the truck in 4-wheel drive, and headed into the woods.
She parkedthe truck, got out, threw off all her clothes and said, ‘Bubba, takewhatever you want’. So I took the truck!”
“Bubba, you’re a smart man!. Them clothes woulda never fit you.
