Life has interesting ways of taking us places we really never would have just "picked." When work offered to help pay for a move to Texas, right when our landlord was selling our house, it seemed like a good time to cut my financial losses. I did some racing in Texas, but the bike scene there...

No Photographer this round, so no pics. With the second to last round of the CMRA fast approaching, I was excited to see what I could do at another new-to-me track. This time we were heading to Hallett Raceway in Oklahoma, and I had some time to review videos and get an idea of the track...

It’s interesting where life takes us sometimes, and how those places and things make other things start to come together. After wrapping up the previous CMRA race round, I knew my fitness, which I had already started (but barely) to work on improving was a major hang up. With a few weeks between...

Sometimes in life you just need to proverbially throw yourself to the wolves. Let’s face it, change isn’t easy, and life seems easier when we stay in our comfort zones, but seldom do great things ever happen when that’s the course you choose to take. Pushing oneself isn’t easy. Doing things...

Taking a pulse on the community on what shops that are currently open for business that fall under your top go-to/favorite places that you would recommend to someone else. Things to consider: Reliable work Reasonable prices Options (do they also sell gear, parts, etc) Location and...

GONE - picked up yesterday. Some used take offs that I had planned on using up the last of on trackdays and never did. Moving and don't want to haul them with me. Various dates and wear, but free for the taking. Located in Daly City. Prefer to get rid of the whole stack (5?) so take one, take...

Moving across the country and would rather not move these just to hang onto them for the sake of hanging onto them. MINT Full OEM fairings, EXCEPT tank and tank covers/panels. Includes headlights, tail light, plate mount, seat, etc. White and silver. Fairings have 1 mile on them and then were...

Photos by Oxymoron Photography After some things coming together for me in other areas of my life, I finally made the decision to accept my job’s offer to move me with them to Texas when my current lease is up. That meant I would be changing race series, but without many championships on the...

I'm trying to come up with some ideas on ways to "privatize" half of a 2-car (one door) garage. I want half open for the truck, but the other half reserved for the bikes, but would like to have a vision block on that half of the garage that accomplishes a few things: Block view of bikes from...

Racing is either something you really feel the need to do, or it’s not. There may be a few out there who will consistently show up here and there, but they are few and far between. This particular weekend ended with me sobbing big, giant, dragon tears in my truck on the way home. And there was...

Do you enjoy writing down your ride stories, talking about motorcycles through your keyboard, or sharing your thoughts on products you've tried? Well, turn that into some easy cash! We're always looking for bloggers to contribute to the RiderzLaw blogs. Pretty much anything motorcycle related...

If you’ve followed my race reports at all, you know there have been some struggles. If you’ve talked to me in person, you probably have a better feel of just how much of a struggle things have been since I decided to move on the ZX10R. Between my leg and mechanical issues, it’s been a rough two...

Spot taken Headed from Daly City to Buttonwillow sometime on Friday ( somewhat flexible as I'm telecommute that day) and coming back on Sunday. Room for another bike and person - let me know if you'd like a ride! East bay that is relatively close to the 80/880 or peninsula works (not a huge...

To say that the last couple years of “racing” (I’ll use the term loosely) have been frustrating would be an understatement. First, there was the broken leg saga that lasted nearly all of last year (still hasn’t even been a year since my last surgery), trying to adjust to the new, completely...

Getting a rather large pile of take-offs in my garage, and not burning through them. $75/tire, many only have a couple (slow) races on them. First come, first serve, first pick! Most are Medium compound, but might be a couple others in the pile. Couple of fronts if you want them for $40/each...
