NEW BIKERNET LOGO–Here’s a glimpse of the latest Jon Towle creation for new Bikernet stickers and banners. Actually, Jon has been too drunk to come up with something fresh so we went back to the logo from the book “Outlaw Justice.” He dusted the devil off, added color to the flames and we’re ready to rock. Under Bikernet.com will be the scintillating line, “Where the Party Begins and the Ride Never Ends.” I wish the party would end once in a while, it’s tough to write books when I’m ducking beer cans.

CRAZY HORSE RETURNS–This is the woman behind the Bikernet Bike Show. Except a couple of weeks ago, after attending Bike Week, she disappeared to the Florida Keys. A Bikernet spy located her, then we sent the Bikernet Pimp Squad to retrieve her and return her to her post. You know what I mean. We just added a new catagory to the show list. Buells are rapidly being performance customized so we opened the door for Buell customs to compete online.
