World’s First Two-Wheel Motorcycle Burnout

How does one do a burn out on an AWD motorcycle? Simple, chain it to a big-ass post. Gregor Halenda, who I met on the photoshoot for the Silodrome + MotoLady Icon 1000 Akorp jacket review, teamed up with his studio partner Thomas Liggett to create this rather awesome video.  High fives all around.  The video shows footage of it on dirt, kicking up a lot of dust. It gave me goosebumps, that’s for sure. First thing I thought? I want to ride it! I also really enjoy the engineer description of… Continue Reading »

Submission from countless different people on tumblr and facebook (from imgur)– How to Be Sexy with Bugs in Your Teeth: a motorcycling manual for women.  I need this book more than I need to breathe (well at least that’s what it feels like).

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 »

When I saw Quentin Wilson post a photo of the project he was working on I almost choked on my coffee- a Ducati 1199 Panigale set up for adventure riding. Q is just crazy enough to do this kind of thing, get muddy, have fun, and smile for days after… so I was more than excited to see the outcome.  Well, a couple weeks later here’s a great shot from Arun Sharma of the knobby-sporting TerraCorsa all muddy and used. See more photos on MotoCorsa.com of this genius madness.

The winner Day 4 of Seven Days of Giveaways for the Icon Pursuit glove contest has to be this bad ass, Amy Tindall. Rides motorcycles, plays clarinet… doesn’t have a set of gloves?  All the submissions were great, but hers takes the cake. You can check out my favorites in the flickr album.
