Well, here we are. A new look and a few changes. Jumped from the Joomla base to a blog – “Eeck gads! I hate that word!” – make that a open source JOURNALING based package…
Still creating an individualized theme… Love Artisteer II for that purpose
While this site is being worked on, I’ve have a couple of polls that I would appreciate if you could take.
Most of us started on smaller (250 cc and less), some of us jumped into riding motorcycles in the mid-class range (500 to 950 cc range) and some of us went “hard-core” and jumped directly into bikes that “no squid should have”. Then there is the manufacturer of your first ride who made it? I would considered it an “honor” if your would take these poll. They’re located on on the Poll Page. Just click on the menu item above to get there. Thanks, Mike 
Just a short video I took while participating in the 8th Annual Running of the Rats out of Enid, Oklahoma. The RatRun, as it is referred to, is handled by the Iron Liver Goons MC and is an all-makes motorcycle ( or as the official literature refers to it – “motorsickle”) poker run established to support the Kyle ‘RatBoy’ Traynor Memorial Scholarship Fund. It is held every July – which in Oklahoma – could qualify you as one “tough hombre’” because sunburn is about 100% for all with heat stroke or prostration possible if you don’t “hydrate” regularly…
Already put 40 mile on my bike coming out of Fairview – but some bikers came as far as from Las Vegas, NV. for this run.
The course of the run took us from Enid, OK to Billings, OK to Tonkawa, OK to a Rod’s Country Bar just SW of Ponca City, OK to The 7-Clans Casino just North of Red Rock, OK and then back to Enid.
