TerraCorsa: 1199 Panigale Adventure Bike
MotoCorsa is doing some rad stuff. If you don’t already know, I’m no longer working there. Not since last December- but that’s not the point. The point is my friend Taylor Ramsauer (Garage 6) is working on a lot of their projects now. He did a killer video and photoshoot with TerraCorsa– a Ducati 1199 Panigale with knobbies and other mods from Quentin Wilson and MotoCorsa. Quentin has raced in the AMA- personally I don’t think anyone could get on and ride a 195bhp dirt bike quite like he did. He’s also a… Continue Reading »
Why We Ride Documentary: Coming Soon
It took me a while to sit down and watch this trailer, despite multiple people sending it to me. Why? I’m not sure.

Here are some of the best and the worst biker and motorcycle halloween costumes. Spiderman… this guy went all out. Look twice for spidey! This guy better be a chief or something, because otherwise he’s going to get pelted (pun intended) by politically-correct white folk. He doesn’t realize he’s being chiefly offensive… oh god there I go again. Ironman rides a yellow bike… and can’t… Continue Reading »
Two Wheel Themed Art by BMD Design
You’ve probably seen work by BMD somewhere online already and it didn’t even register- he’s done work for Nike, Quicksilver, Fuel Motorcycles and more. BMD stands for “Bella Matribus Detestas” which is Latin and translates to “War, the horror of mothers.” His art is refined yet rough, simple but robust… managing to capture the message and mood of an event or product within a graphic. His work adorns helmets, wooden planks, doors, walls, and so much more. “Punish your machine” is one of my personal favorites, it’s classic, elegant, and also violent. Sketches… Continue Reading »
