Land Speed Record

This is why going for a "Land Speed Record" is contagious!  Check out this video summary from the world record set by Hellcat Customs at Bonneville in 2012!



Kelly Rogers aka @FieryPinkGirl will be one of the riders from Team Hellcat to attempt to set a Land Speed Record at Bonneville in 2013. Kelly is currently seeking sponsors to assist with achieving her goal of setting a World Land Speed Record.  For further information on how you can support Kelly and Team Hellcat Customs, visit "Send Fiery Pink Girl to the Salt Flats."

Weekend Ride!

The weather has been amazing which has resulted in a great start to our riding season.  I took Friday afternoon off work and went on a leisurely 250 kilometer solo ride on the Street Glide.  Just me, the open road and U2 blasting on the stereo...it was great!

Saturday, I got the Buell 1125R out of storage and ready for the road!  The morning consisted of quick wash jobs on both the 1125R and the Street Glide and then it was off for an afternoon rip on the 1125R.

Earlier in the week, my friend Luc and I decided that we would head out for a long ride on Sunday!  We weren't sure if we were going to go in "Cruise" mode or "Sportbike" mode.  On Sunday morning we decided to go with the Sportbikes.  Luc and I connected early in the morning and were off, he on his CBR1000RR and I on the 1125R.  As per usual, we had no real destination in mind, we just wanted to ride.  Here is the 370 kilometer loop we ended up doing: Fredericton, Harvey Station, St. Andrews, Dipper Harbour, Saint John, Fredericton.


I will let the pictures do the rest of the talking, enjoy!

A fitting end to the day!

A quick stop at a local gas station and conversation with fellow bikers proved to be a fitting end to a great day of riding!  To quote my friend, Jeff S. aka @JoeRocket, "until next time, a low, slow wave."

Street Glide Videos

This past weekend my friend Luc and I got out for a ride!  Over the winter, Luc purchased a GoPro Motorsports camera and he figured it would be great to try his new camera out with a video of me riding my new Street Glide!





Looking forward to a great riding season! Keep your right hand cranked and ride safe!
