UPDATE: Here’s the story of our time there on a Triumph Explorer 1200! In late June, VyVy and I (and Baby Jack, of course) will be heading out to the United Kingdom for a couple of weeks of exploration via motorcycle. Right now, the plan is to start in London and basically do a lap of England, Wales, Ireland, and …

Sorry!
It finally happened – my lack of internet service in Mexico caught up with me and I have fallen behind on bike postings like I warned might happen. All I can do to atone now is to share a few photos with you for the time being…
Giveaway – Faster Sons Keychain
Last year when I was at the press launch for the Yamaha SCR950, I got a gift bag from Yamaha with some trinkets. One of the goodies was a keychain that’s not available in the US. I’ll never use it, so I figured it’d be nice to give it to a loyal reader who would actually enjoy it. So…who wants …
Out of Office – You Boys Like Mexico?
…cause Spurgeon and I sure do. That’s why today we’re off on a ride from Los Angeles to Cabo. It’ll take 6 days, and during that time my posting frequency will definitely drop – I’m not sure what my internet access is going to be like. So if you don’t see many bikes for sale in the next week, I …

Suggestions for Mexico?
This weekend, Spurgeon from RevZilla and I will take off from Los Angeles on our way to Cabo. I’ve sort of done this trip before on a R1100S, but this time around I’ll be on a R1200GS – opening up the possibility of some dirt. So I turn to you, my loyal reader: what should I see? Who should I …
Running the MotoGiro, Part 1
I’ve featured reader Jim R before thanks to his passion for early Kawasaki singles and that the fact that he’s picked up a couple of them through Bike-urious. He’s a true motorcycling nut, having owned hundreds of bikes over the years. As he puts it, he ‘restores and transports bikes as a money losing hobby and generally has something to …
Giveaway – Monday Motorbikes M1
Monday Motorbikes (you may remember as them Bolt) is trying to spread the word about their “crossover motorbike” by…giving one away. Here’s how you can enter, if you want an electric twist-n-go commuter.

View PostA Weekend With the AWD Rev’It #95!
It’s Sunday morning, and I’ve been working up the courage to try this for hours. It’s finally time to forget my instincts and see what happens when I hold a slide around a corner and then whack the throttle open. On a normal big enduro, that’s an easy way to turn a slide into a lowside. But this is no …
