The Rust Bucket BSA Project Inspiration
While I’m finishing the Monster, I’ve had a lot of things rattling around in my brain for this Rust Bucket / BSA Project of mine. Firstly, I found out it’s a 1958 BSA A7 or A10. The difference being the exact model and either 500 or 650cc (thanks to everyone who corrected my typo). I’m stoked to know it’s about 7 years older than I thought and pre-1960s! So cool.

The Portland Int’l Raceway Auto Swap Meet
Swap meet time! So much good stuff, and entertaining people. Like these fellas I met from Gassers Garage in Portland.

The Triumph Named Tesla & the Maryland Meetup
It’s every journalist’s (or wannabe journalist, if you rather) dream to get to travel and photograph their favorite things… in this case, the lovely Sasha of CafeRacerXXX sent me on a mission to photograph “Tesla”, a Triumph build by my friend Jeff Yarrington of Saint Motor Company in Maryland.
Just posted a video of my friend Rob and I riding in Oregon through the Columbia Gorge on Highway 30 and beautiful back roads for 40 minutes. He’s on his custom 1979 CB750k Gulf Oil themed cafe racer, and I’m on the bizarrely awesome 1992 TDM 850. Watch the “Columbia Gorge Motorcycle Goodness” video on the MotoLady Official youtube channel. Ah, nostalgia.
