Hey, Almost each week has a vibe. This week it feels like a “Take Action” week. Lots going on with the Motorcycle Riders Foundation legislative action. The inauguration is approaching and you’ll see folks heading to Washington with several motorcycle groups. The V-Twin Dealer Show is heating up and you’ll see lots of EPA action. […]

  Hey, I received a note from the MRF about a state trying to pass another helmet law. Over the last eight years we’ve seen a shift from a balanced approach to save everything. The notion that if one precious life could be saved we can torture thousands for years to prevent one death. Think

Happy New Year, Another New Year unfolds. It’s packed full of new opportunities, new directions, new choices, new projects, and new relationships. Make the absolute most out of every day. Again, I want to thank my Bikernet Weekly News sponsors for their unrelenting support. The news is sponsored in part by Cycle Source Magazine, Las

Merry Christmas, Christmas can mean so much to so many of us. It can bring up the blues, hardships, wonderful family experiences, almost fantasy delights and religious warmth. I wish only the best holiday experiences for all the riders who read Bikernet. I have a pact with Dr. Hamster. We promised to cut bullshit out

Hey, We’re headed to the Yaffe Birthday Party in Morongo Casino tomorrow. More and more it’s a major fight just to get out of LA, but Jim Betlach, from the V-Twin Expo said the same about Minnesota. We have made some serious steps toward an anti-EPA regs strategy and more info flies at us daily.

Hey, On one hand life is nuts and frustrating, but on the other hand it can be completely nuts but inspiring. Today is a perfect example. Hopefully the mainstream media will ultimately get it. It’s about Climate Deniers. I’m not a scientist. I’m not a reporter for the Wall Street Journal, but the more I

  Hey, We have lots to report today, and I want to just let it fly. I spoke to Dr. Hamster, my best friend and brother recently. He’s a successful Chiropractor and recently decided to sorta move to the desert. Then his plan expanded to opening a series of treatment centers. He put himself in

Happy Thanksgiving, I’ve been waiting for months to write this. This year contained some tough obstacles, but we stepped up and conquered. I needed to finish what may be my last book. The City of Los Angeles attacked my building. I had to register my 2014 Indian—not easy in California with a 49-State model. I

Hey, What if we could prove that global warming is a hoax, the climate is changing as it has for millions of years, but the man-made aspect is not the end-all. What if we could prove Oil isn’t the Bad Guy. What if a few grubby bikers, an old attorney and some young environmentalists could

  Wow, Was that election something? I’ve never seen two people or two staffs work so hard for America as Clinton and ultimately the new President, Trump. This was like three or four football seasons in a row. I gotta hand it to them. No race has ever been so hard fought. Let’s hope this

Hey, We need to stick together and never give up. There’s a lot of bullshit flying around this country, and I wonder if it’s because there are too many rats in the cage, so pandemonium ensues. Let’s hope not and work for Freedom, because it works. I have another mantra I’m pushing these days: Oil

Hey, This is one of those days. We are scrambling in so many directions. If you’ve ever thought about advertising on Bikernet, this is the year, 2017. We’ve made a ton of changes and now Bikernet is mobile friendly. Our best benefit is the ability to share information often and forever. Two cute young girls

  Hey, What’s our next move? 45 Years ago, the safetycrats hit us with helmet laws. It was a notion not to save lives, but to control the growing number of wild bikers. Many folks just accepted that helmets protect heads. What could be better? We proved differently on many fronts and helmet laws still

Hey, What if we proved all transportation vehicles have little effect on the climate and cows and agriculture has a much more devastating effect? What if we proved oil ain’t bad at all but killing animals is. What if we found out that the biggest element on the earth controlling weather and fixing our climate

Hey, I’m still catching up on sleep from Las Vegas Bikefest. I’m also in the process of constantly learning. I’m learning business, new technology and constantly on the search for more information regarding our freedoms to ride and build motorcycles. I’ve been after the EPA and CARB in California for several years purely from a

Hey, There are a couple of heated topics to discuss here. One is the monster in the garage. We could call it government over-reach, control freaks, freedom in trouble or the safety take-over. Everyday we hear about electric vehicles taking over the planet, we hear about global warming as if you could turn your chopper

Hey, I’m still trying to understand Facebook. We dodged it for a couple of years. That didn’t help Bikernet, but now we’re in the ring, punching it out. Someone in the industry recently said, “Don’t give ‘em content, just work the content you have through Facebook.” I’m still trying to understand what all the boxes

Hey, I just received a new C of O, or Certificate of Occupancy for the Bikernet Headquarters. For months I wondered whether armed officials would kick me out of my old building. Today, we wonder if our old motorcycles might be banned. We wonder if police will barge into our homes and search for guns.

Hey, Incredible year. A tough, challenging and progressive year. We’ve accomplished a lot, and it’s not over yet. The Bikernet Weekly News is sponsored in part by Choppertown, Las Vegas Bikefest, the Motorcycle Riders Foundation, Cycle Source Magazine, Iron Trader News and BornToRide.com. Let’s hit the news and avoid getting into trouble. ANOTHER HAPPY CUSTOMER–After

Hey, This is going to be a good one. A couple of news items bring up the issue of Freedom and how it works. We don’t realize how important the custom motorcycle culture is to our nation. I’ll try to explain. Biker’s Rights advocates have fought for helmet freedom for over 40 years. It’s worked

Hey, It’s all nuts. I watched a documentary about the earth and our battles for and around water. The scientists in Greenland said they could not confirm or deny the naysayers about man’s impact on the climate. The water and ice levels have been consistent for 10,000 years. They also went onto explain how our

  Hey, Had an interesting experience dodging thunderstorms through Monument Valley, on our way to Sturgis. We pulled into Rawlings for gas and my riding partner was constantly looking for the best possible route. He would ask folks on the street, gas station attendants, waitresses, and for info on his cell phone. They all offered

Hey, I’m probably in Wyoming heading to Sturgis. The clan is taking over for me, while I’m on the road. Thanks to all the readers and staff who are holding it together, while I drink all the whiskey between Barstow and Deadwood. Gotta get there somehow. A big Indian is chasing me.   Ride Free
