He's still dedicated to staying on two wheels while riding through Walnut Creek.

This is just...weird. I was going through my camera footage to clear out the SD card and realized I left my rear camera recording after I got to work yesterday. (Which explained why the battery was dead for the trip home.) I was about to delete the clip when while scrubbing through the footage...

Lane splitting has always been one of those things I do on a daily basis on my commute (unless I get lucky and stay late at the office and miss the rush) that I think I do correctly but obviously have never had anyone over my shoulder telling me what I'm doing right or wrong. A lot of it is...

I took the cage to work today (bad move, brought in donuts for the office and hardly anyone ate any) and on my way home this guy was ahead of me. I couldn't help but notice his odd choice of lane position at the Monument exit. Directly on the painted arrow (hope he doesn't do that in the rain)...

Behold, another video of Spartan getting too worked up over shitty driving! Except not really. I am fully aware that all of the happenings in this installment are "non-incidents" and are simply examples of stupid shit people do out there...with the exception of the red light runners who are...

Edit: after discussing with someone who owns one and has a lot of knowledge, I'm only looking for civvy LX models at this point. In my search for a second car for commuting on days I can't/don't feel up to riding the bike, I've decided the way I want to go is either a retired Crown Vic P71 or...

Not good. http://www.kcra.com/news/local-news/news-sacramento/westbound-i80-in-sacramento-shut-down-due-to-crash/38916696 At least the caught the bastard. Well wishes to the officer.

Saw this story come up on Revzilla's Common Thread. The idiot in the Fusion clearly deserves the charges that ended up against him and clearly has some issues to work out, but the rider was pretty dumb too for not removing himself from the situation and letting it escalate how it did...

I really don't know why I seem to be a magnet for road raging assholes when I'm in my car, but this is the second time in a month using my horn for what it's designed for has pissed someone off to the point of confrontation. My wife and I were heading to Safeway to grab a few last minute items...

My daughter's 1st birthday party was on Saturday, 3/19, and my in-laws offered to host the party in their backyard here in Concord. My father-in-law is from Laos and in their customs the 1st birthday is the biggest and they throw a huge party. He's a chef so he had a huge spread of food...

If so, this dude must have been trying to find out. DiGJvj1I8jw I'll try not the bust the guys balls too badly as I noticed right off the bat he had an Arizona plate. So I wasn't expecting lane splitting pro skills or anything, but holy crap. At least let the TWO bikes behind you (the sport...

I'm in a sharing mood today and I had an...interesting experience yesterday. My wife and I were in the ol' cage making a stop at the Willows so she could pick something up at Ulta. The parking lot was packed, so I dropped her off so she could go in while I found parking. I pulled down an aisle...

My wife and I hit up our usual sushi restaurant Saturday night for a date night. Grandparents had the baby for the weekend so we were looking forward to a nice couple's night out. This place has been nearly perfect every time we go, from the service to the food. This night, however, not so much...

I've been spearheading some new initiatives to get the word out about the services that we, the Warriors' Watch Riders, can offer and figured I would also make a post here. For those unaware of who we are and what we do, we are a 100% volunteer organization that exists to support our military...

I'm not sure how many bikes out there have a clock on the dash like a car. Mine doesn't even have a gas gauge much less a clock. When a simple wrist watch doesn't cut it, what does everyone use to keep track of the time? That is, when it is necessary to do such a thing. I got a Pebble...

As is typical, I try to stay to one side of a lane or the other, giving myself an exit route to avoid a rear-ending. Well, the first example from today thought she'd go ahead and take advantage of that space and just roll up alongside me. Happens from time to time, people don't respect our...

Damnit, not another one. RIP rider. :( http://kron4.com/2016/02/24/two-lanes-closed-after-fatal-crash-on-hwy-580/

The caution being to make sure you remember to flip back from reserve after you filled up last. I made that mistake recently, and as a result I put myself into a bit of a predicament on my way home from work. Judging by mileage I figured I was close to needing to switch over, and when I did...

Before reviewing the video, all I knew was the white Jeep tried her level best to lodge herself up my tailpipe, but I didn't know why. All I knew was that traffic slowed suddenly and figured she didn't react well to it. Well, after seeing my rear view cam footage, I see what happened. In...

Today I had a good reminder that watching gaps in traffic while splitting is a smart thing to do. I came up on this van, and not only were we coming up on a gap, but she was listing to the right, so I held back a bit. Just as I did, she darted over into the gap, not only cutting me off but the...
