Superprestigio – LA to Vegas on a Clapped out 250cc

Well, it has been a couple of weeks since I went to Las Vegas for the inaugural Superprestigio of the Americas. I figured it’s time to recall my story before it gets lost in the abyss of my mind. It started out innocently enough. The day after the Long Beach IMS I decided that I…

Progressive® International Motorcycle Show-Long Beach

Well, now that Thanksgiving is a week behind me I’ve finally arisen from my Turkey coma and I realized that I did a few things before Turkey Day weekend… I went to the Long Beach IMS. Here are some standout bikes that weren’t necessarily on every consumer list, because they were customs and not the…

Creative Riding EP003 – Meat Horse Vs Iron Horse

In this episode host Danny Hoyer walks us through…

Are you a ‘Biker’?

Do you like the term ‘Biker’? If someone calls you a biker do you feel like a badass or do you feel like you maybe skipped one too many showers? The question of ‘Bikers’ was brought up in an online discussion and it struck a chord with us at Creative-Riding. To be honest, we would be…

Yamaha throws their hat in the ring…

Have you seen the Yamaha XSR900? I would say that this is Yamaha’s line in the sand. They have thrown down their hat in the ring with a Scrambler rival. Hey, that color scheme looks familiar! Who else has a little scrambler that’s actually called that, comes in yellow and – Oh!, ladies and gents,…

More BMW porn for the discerning customer

Check out BMW’s custom R nine Ts (transformed into works of art bespoke from sensibilities straight from the Hipster ideology). See more of the Path 22 here. Although their ‘Rat Rod’ is pictured, I couldn’t find a link to the actual build site. You’ll have to scout around on your own! -Cheers    

BMW enters 300cc market

OMG BMW YOLO!!! That’s right, I said it! Well, I implied it with letters and acronyms. BMW has finally done what I never thought I’d see it do… something sensible and affordable. I have a yet unreleased podcast where I rant on about the G 310 stunt concept that BMW released in Brazil in October,…

Oh deer!

So, I needed some road therapy yesterday. I have been in the house and running domestic errands as of late, none of which are easily accomplished on a motorcycle. (I should note that this applies only to the United States of America. In any other country I could pick up the kids, the wife, the…

SA2015 Helmets

So, I noticed that there are about 3,000 messages in my inbox just in the last week alone. Every single Motorcycle Gear Vendor that I’ve ever visited or bought from is vying for my attention. They are peddling all sorts of helmets. Halloween Sale helmets, pre-Black Friday helmets, extended sale helmets, etc.

Hansen Dam British Bike Extravaganza

Well, what would a giant group ride be without a giant group? I joined about 400 people in the parking lot of the Hansen Dam recreation area for the 36th annual Hansen Dam All British Bike Ride. Needless to say it wasn’t all British bikes in attendance. I must say however, there were more Ariels…

In Britain, One’s Past Can Beckon The Future.

While Triumph is busy releasing their new 2016 modern-classic line, Norton is working on a V4 Superbike. Triumph is assimilating their classic livery to modern standards, and that includes liquid-cooling. Though the fins on the heads and cylinders do still provide cooling. There are 3 new Bonnies and 2 versions of the Thruxton. The R…

Hurricane Patricia

As hurricane Patricia bears down on the western edge of Mexico, my heart goes out to all of the families. I think we’re all hoping for the minimal amount of damage. The 190+ mph winds that are expected will hopefully slow over land and be broken up by the mountains. Oh yeah, Patricia? The H2R…
