Hey,
I was just looking at the new issue of Dealer News and I wondered about something. I try to skim through DealerNews and anything motorcycle related constantly, so I may have missed something. I wondered how the DealerNews staff handles the Climate Change question and if they support freedom or dodge the issue scared someone might call them a denier.
Then I wondered about the MIC (Motorcycle Industry Council) and the AMA. Do they even question these issues in support of Freedom and fossil fuels. I’m reading another book regarding this issue (Why Scientists Disagree About Global Warming) and it points at the Alarmists as being the deniers. They are denying science and freedom of speech.
The whole issue of doomsday is blowing up. Check this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-mRJmfFjFE&feature=emb_logo
There is more and more evidence that the climate has changed for 542 million years and will continue to change and man has very little to do with it. And science will continue to change and grow with more and more info. No one can say science is done. It’s against the code of the west, the Science Code. So, I’m wondering if any of the above groups are questioning or doing their own research on an issue that could ruin the motorcycle industry, is already having an impact, or don’t they believe in freedom of speech?
Here’s what’s so interesting about the topic of doomsday. It’s been going on for thousands of years. Hell, in 1970 Leonard Nimoy claimed we were all going to freeze to death. Thousands of years ago, if you weren’t apart of the correct religion, you were doomed to hell and burned at the stake. In the ‘50s after WWII Senator McCarthy claimed that if you even discussed communism over coffee, you could be jailed, ruined and lose your job. That didn’t work too well for him, the whole thing blew up as a hoax and he committed suicide.
Here’s the not so funny, finale to this issue. A Hells Angel from Richmond, California once said, “Time will tell and shit will smell.” Well, that fits this issue perfectly. If 10 years from now (it’s already been almost 20 years of claiming doomsday), we are still selling cars and motorcycles and the planet is just fine, they lose right? Seems simple to me, but I’m just a grubby biker…
Let’s hit the news:
The Bikernet Weekly News is sponsored in part by companies who also dig Freedom including: Cycle Source Magazine, the MRF, Las Vegas Bikefest, Iron Trader News, ChopperTown, BorntoRide.com and the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum. Most recently the Smoke Out and Quick Throttle Magazine came on board.

WHEELS THROUGH TIME WINNER–
John Pierrard won a restored Knucklehead.
Pierrard is a long-time fan of the museum but had been unable to make an in-person visit until last July. While at the museum, he bought seven tickets for $50.00. “Pretty good deal,” said Pierrard, after finding out he had won. A long-time rider, Pierrard currently rides a 2016 Harley-Davidson Street Glide, but also owns a 1941 Harley-Davidson Knucklehead, and a 1966 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide.
This year’s grand prize, the beautiful 1936 Knucklehead Hot-Rod Bobber, went to John Pierrard of Asheboro, NC. Second and Third place prizes of $10,000 and $5,000 went to Nora Dalton of Cocoa, Florida and Timothy Richey respectively.
November 9, 2019, brought another beautiful day to Maggie Valley, NC, and Dale’s Wheels Through Time Museum’s 17th Annual Raffle Day.
Raffle day at the museum is one of the highest attended events of the year, and again record numbers of people showed up to enjoy the day’s activities. Each one was anticipating if they would be the lucky winner of the 1936 Harley Davidson Knucklehead.
Each year the museum’s restoration team goes to work to restore a classic American motorcycle, and all the proceeds from ticket sales go toward museum operations, new and enhanced exhibits, and to preservation and restoration of the collection. On Veteran’s Day weekend each year, they give the motorcycle away to one ticket holder.
The morning’s activities included the firing up of rare and vintage motorcycles, special door prizes, and the excitement continued to build throughout the day.

BILLY RAY CYRUS AND LIL NAS X’S
“OLD TOWN ROAD”
WINS COUNTRY MUSIC ASSOCIATION’S
MUSICAL EVENT OF THE YEAR–NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Billy Ray Cyrus continues shattering records and racking up accolades as the Flatwoods, Kentucky singer/songwriter and global music icon wins the Country Music Association’s Musical Event of the Year with Lil Nas X for “Old Town Road (Billy Ray Cyrus remix),” a song eliminated on country charts by Billboard critics for not “embracing enough elements of today’s country music.”
This is all on the on the heels of the song being certified diamond by the RIAA as Cyrus leads the pack for nominations as a country artist in the 2019 American Music Awards, yet none of the nods are in country categories. Cyrus is nominated in the all-genre Collaboration of the Year category, as well as Favorite Music Video, Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Song and Favorite Pop/Rock Song.
The CMA win follows a record-breaking year for Cyrus after he took home two MTV VMA Moonmen for Song of the Year and Best Direction, as well as two trophies at the BET Hip Hop Awards for Best Collab, Duo or Group and Single of the Year. The 2019 American Music Awards air November 24 on ABC.
The all-genre field is no stranger to Cyrus. In 1992, his first album, Some Gave All, debuted on the all-genre Billboard 200 album chart at No. 1 and stayed there for a record-breaking 17 weeks.
Not only is “Old Town Road (Billy Ray Cyrus remix)” the first song of 2019 to gain the diamond recognition, it is the first in the RIAA’s history to meet the minimum requirement of 10,000,000 units sold so quickly.

LATEST FROM THE CLIMATE DEPOT–NPR Invents Fake Italy Wine Crisis
There they go again. National Public Radio published an article on its website claiming global warming is wreaking havoc on Italian wine production and forcing producers to seek new ways to protect their grapes. Yet the objective data show wine production in Italy, the rest of Europe, and the rest of the world are all doing quite fine.
As CFACT documented last month, global wine production set a new record last year. Italy was no exception, as Italian wine production also set a new record in 2018. Italian wine production is down some in 2019, but wine analysts attribute the 2019 decline to wine producers deliberately growing fewer grapes this year because they had so much holdover wine from 2018.
To the extent weather impacted the wine grapes that were grown, unusually late spring cold weather and frosts diminished output. Of course, as we are all lectured, global warming causes an earlier end to winter and an earlier start to spring. Without our recent modest global warming, this year’s cold spring would have been worse, this year’s late frosts would have been worse, and this year’s grape harvest would have been worse.
Leave it to NPR, however, to spin the record 2018 wine production, the excess wine held over into 2019, and the cold spring weather on global warming. NPR described the cold spring and late frosts as “weather extremes due to climate change.” Well, I guess “weather extremes” is one way to describe a cold spring and late frosts. Blaming those on global warming, however, is simply preposterous.
Regardless of what NPR would have people believe, wine production in Italy and throughout the globe is doing just fine as our planet modestly warms. So raise a glass and toast global warming!

SALT TORPEDO UPDATE—We got the info for the padding around Micah’s Helmet and Atomic Bob finished the latest Salt Torpedo rendition.
I need to order the padding today.
THE CORAL HEAD MUSIC FESTIVAL REPORT–The American Legion presented its charity concert series The Coral Head MusicFest in support of U.S. Veterans charities for the first time at England Brothers Bandshell in Pinellas Park. Close to 3500 people turned out to relive the 80’s with rockers Sebastian Bach, Jackyl, Mark Slaughter, and Mitch Perry Group (MPG). Also appearing were regional artists HairDaze and Jen.
The crowd was electrified during the entire full day event and things really took off when Mark Slaughter hit the stage performing hits such as ‘Fly to the Angels’, ‘Mad About You’, and many more. Chainsaw wielding Jesse James Dupree along with Jackyl shined with an outstanding performance and executed a barstool in both fire and sawdust with their signature destruction via the famous chainsaw.
Sebastian Bach (former lead singer of Skid Row) blew the crowd away with the 30th anniversary performance of the band’s first album in its entirety in addition to some of his newest material.
Anyone familiar with the bandshell at England Brothers Park knows the stage is somewhat limited in space so the crew brought in and constructed a 50 foot stage complete with high powered sound and an outstanding lightshow.
In addition, food vendors and a number of local merchandise vendors were on hand throughout the day including everything from physic readings to booths from our sponsoring businesses such as The Whiskey, Suncoast Custom Builders, Vapers Manor, and Trichom Health Center just to name a few (full list of sponsors can be found on our website).
Concert goers also enjoyed plenty of Meet & Greets with the bands, beer, wine, and frozen drinks throughout the event along with a premium VIP section that provided an upfront view with preferred seating.
Although this is the first event to be held in the Tampa Bay area the American Legion is no rookie in presenting this event. Working on our 4th year in the Florida Keys with our primary charity being Project: VetRelief, we have brought a number of artists to the stage including the likes of Vince Neil, Great White, Atlanta Rhythm Section, John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band and many others.
The next event scheduled is in Marathon, Florida Keys on February 15, 2020 where Rock and Country will go head to head with ‘Don’t tell me you love me’ artists Night Ranger & ‘Trashy Women’ southern rock favorites Confederate Railroad.
Sponsorship is the key in the American Legion being able to produce such a high quality event. Without our sponsors we simply would not be able to do what we do and we appreciate their support in our U.S. Veterans. Sponsorship in the American Legion Coral Head MusicFest gives both local and national sponsors a lot of exposure in radio, print, online, and digital advertising.
There are many levels of sponsorship, which by the way are tax-deductible (501c veterans organization), and provide numerous tangible and intangible benefits such as advertising, tickets, parking, merchandise and more. To find out more on how you can support our U.S. Veterans and have a great time doing it call us directly and speak with our Sponsor Representatives Jen Ragland (Tampa Bay area) 727-851-1482 and Rich Anderson (South Florida) 305-942-9862, Email: LegionRiders154@gmail.com, or visit our website at www.coralheadmusicfest.com

THE TEXAS DYNA REPORT–This is how much stuff I’ve taken off so far, bars will be here Wednesday. Got the Saddlemen seat for my “Dyna Boy” starter kit. Saw a guy today about 4am, 33 degrees and damp, wasn’t a bagger but at least he had windshield.
I must be old, I don’t like the way the wind hits my chest with the stock FXDB bars. Hoping the new bars will reduce it some? Fan yesterday morning, 33 this morning.

BIKERNET MEDICAL CENTER JOB PLACEMENT DIVISION–When you have a ‘I Hate My Job’ day.
Even if you’re retired, you sometimes have those days.
Try this:
Stop at your pharmacy
and go to the thermometer section and
purchase a rectal thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson.
Be very sure you get this
brand.
When you get home, lock your doors, draw
the curtains and disconnect the phone
so you will not be disturbed.
Change into very comfortable clothing and sit
in your favorite chair. Open the package and remove the thermometer.
Now,
carefully place it on a table or a surface
so that it will not become chipped or broken.
Now
the fun part begins.
Take
out the literature from the box and read it
carefully.
You
will notice that in small print there is a
statement: “Every Rectal Thermometer
made by Johnson & Johnson
is personally tested and then
sanitized.”
Now, close your eyes and repeat out loud five times, “I am so glad I do not work in
the thermometer quality control department at Johnson & Johnson.”
HAVE A NICE DAY, AND REMEMBER, THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE WITH A JOB THAT IS MORE OF A PAIN IN THE ASS THAN YOURS!

HOLY SHIT—I’ve got birds flying around inside the shop. That’s okay, but the sparrows shit on stuff. Cash our high-security watch dog doesn’t mind. Hell, his pointed ears don’t even move.
I just returned from Deadwood. The redhead had me freaked about the 8 degrees in the shade temps. It was fucking beautiful. Hell, I took walks in the snow.
Bikernet will have a headquarters in the Badlands before all is said and done, and frankly I can’t wait.
I’m building a list of content. Jeremiah is installing a set of beautiful billet black Joker Machine turn-signals on his 49mm Dyna. He promised the photos for a tech. We are working with Dennis Manning on a feature about his rebuilt Number 7 Streamliner. He’s looking for sponsors, so he can break the motorcycle land speed record once more. He’s the man when it comes to Streamlined motorcycles.
Never a dull moment around here. I need to get back on the shop, working on the Salt Torpedo. We are planning our first major test run in the next couple of weeks. Hang on!
In the meantime, ride fast and free forever!
