    So, what happened to the barf logo?

    I’ve been away for awhile. Another barf member shamed me into dropping in and posting something. So I posted a picture of a barf salute in vintage cafe. I used a photo that I’d posted in a BMW group on facebook, and received some grief over it, and had to explain the concept. Now that I’m...

    carlo’s vintage archives thread.

    Hi all, long time, no see... Within the past several years, I’ve come into possession of a large quantity of papers, photographs, magazine articles, and even some 8mm film compiled by several people (some of whom are no longer with us) who have been lifelong motorcyclists. I’m going to post...

    The Vincent Black Shadow of the equine world?

    This may seem a bit of a stretch here, but I had an opportunity to spend some time with the Black Shadow of the equine world, a Freisian horse. Would you call this the Vincent of horses? Beautiful creature! I'm not good at conveying the scale of this animal. And the times I've ridden...

    The One Show #10, Portland, Oregon, Feb. 2019

    A friend just sent me a link to thus fun video produced by See See Motorcycles recapping the One Show, which I entered two bikes in. They got sponsorship from the revived Indian Motorcycle company, so lots of Indians were on display. I brought my 1958 Royal Enfield Indian 500cc twin, and my...

    A big barf salute from Oregon wine country!

    I rode out to King Estates Vinyard and Winery for lunch today with friends; Rick, Doug and Ken. Got a couple photos in front of the Pinot vines. Relatively warm day for this autumn. We had a cold spell earlier with a lot of rain, 2019 might not be a great vintage for Pinot Noir. I have a Merlot...

    Brand new pistons, cylinders and two sets of heads rebuilt

    This will be the first time since 1966 that my RE Interceptor has had standard bores. Ever since I bought it as a basket case in 1972, new cylinders were unobtanium. But thanks to www.hitchcocksmotorcycles.com many new parts are available. I now have a pair of standard bore cylinders and...

    Bay Area Vintage Riders:

    Are they asleep at the switch? I got an email notification of a PM from that forum, and found a bunch of messages in Cryllic script. Took a look at the admin board and found more of the same. Somebody seems to have approved some eastern european spammers membership requests, then walked out of...

    Lory Spencer (Shevil Kneivel) could use some help.

    Please take a look at this if you know Lory, she's hit a patch of rough road recently, and might have to sell her 1971 Triumph Tiger to make ends meet. We're working on getting donations to help her make the rent until her first paycheck from her new job comes through...

    Shevil Kneivel (Lory Spencer) could use some help.

    Many BARF members know who Shevil Kneivel is. She's been living in Portland for a few years now. She's going through a patch of rough road right now, and was going to sell her 1971 Triumph to make ends meet until she gets a paycheck from her new job. Some of her friends here in Oregon are...
