Retro Modern Bell Bullitt Coming Soon

Looks like Bell decided to join the retro modern full face helmet club- they recently announced the Bullitt, modeled after the original Bell Star helmet from 40 or so years ago, and so far it’s been shown in three color variations. They do have a really awesome look to them.  I’ve yet to find out just how safe that tiny little chin strap will be… the jury is still out in my opinion.  Looks like you’ll have to wait until March of 2014 to get one, but that’s actually not that far… Continue Reading »

I really enjoy giving names and credit to these famous tumblr photos that have lost their original source- this is Jordan on her Honda CB200. It’s her only mode of transportation, and when she lived in Asia she rode there too. Jordan trains in Krav Maga, Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai which is bad ass to say the least.  Now that’s a motolady.

Hell on Wheels MC Halloween Hill-climb

The Hell on Wheels MC threw another dusty hoedown- the Halloween Hill-climb at the Glen Helen raceway (in San Bernadino, CA) on October 13th! Tamara Raye danced with her bike in a second attempt up the hill, still somehow looking graceful and poised.  Nate Hudson and his friend Connette won trophies for Banana and Gorilla Costumes, and then later Tamara wore a sumo outfit. Awesome is only the beginning of how to describe this. Vurb Moto covered the event and snapped some really great shots like spiderman on a minibike. Or Amelia… Continue Reading »

Better Late Than Never: Isle of Vashon 2012

When I attended the Isle of Vashon VME vintage motorcycle rally last year (previous mini photo and video review here), I took an insane amount of photos. When I got off the ferry and parked my bike, I ran around like a little kid in a candy store. It took me a long time to get through the photos, no excuses… I finally did it and they’re definitely still worth sharing.  There was an amazing collection of motorcycles, as there is every year.  Imagine a place where every car turns into a… Continue Reading »

I’m flying south for the winter, metaphorically speaking… relocating to San Diego at the end of the month! I’ll be trekking North to Long Beach and Los Angeles as often as I can!  You’ll be able to come visit during shop hours at Cerberus Motorcycles shop and co-op on Euclid Ave in San Diego after November. It’s a really cool space inside the historic Egyptian Garage.
