Hope all are fine! And minimizing social contact, or in total isolation if needed and required in your region of the world. While this doesn’t go away, let’s see what I can do. Where do I start? Two oil changes done and five to go. #motorcycle #isolation #socialdistancing #ducati #ktm #honda #yamaha #triumph #funatthegarage #staysafeTBT. This was my 2012 Ducati StreetFighter 848. One of those bikes you regret selling (well, I regret selling it more than other bikes because I regret selling any and all of them). I knew someone who had one on the same color (yes you know who you are...:)), I had asked for her to let me know first, before selling it... so I had an option to buy it and then I learned she sold it to someone else... Well, let’s say I saved some money by not knowing she had sold it. So maybe thank you... because I would had bought it... :) Anyway it was quite the looker, loved the yellow color from the time Ducati was dating Mercedes before it married Audi. #ducati #streetfighter #848 #streetfighter848 #yellowmotorcycle #ducatistreetfighter848 #ducatistreetfighterSunny Sunday, go for a ride or work on the bikes? Looking at the calendar, with a trip to Death Valley coming up on the second week of March, I better get the bikes ready! #790r #ktm790adventure #ktm790r #wr250r #yamahawr250r #motorcycles #rideyourbike #ridingWhile in Portland for the One Moto Show, depending on what you are looking for, it might be worth a visit to the Number Two Show. All kinds of motorcycles, in a smaller display, with a swap meet to go with it. It was found by the Flying Fifteen Motorcycle Club of Portland as an alternative to the One Moto Show. It makes for a better weekend for motorcycle lovers, to have more options to see rare motorcycles, built or not. #numbertwo #numbertwomotorcycleshow #number2 #flying15motorcycleclub #vintagemotorcycles #onemotoshow #2020onemotoshowWhat about some Indian FTRs getting real dirty? The track is not the best, but it works. Somehow. Makes for an interesting event to watch. Let’s see what the pros can do later. Check Garcia, with La Lakers #24, a tribute to Kobe. #hooligans #hooliganracing #rolandsandsdesign #rolandsands #24 #kobebryant #ftr1200 #indianmotorcycles #onemotoshow #2020onemotoshow #portlandPeace before mayhem starts. The great advantage of doing the One-Moto show at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum is the possibility of having a track right on the premises. You walk from the show room floor into the track. You enjoy vintage motorcycles and also the resurgence of flat track racing. Stay tuned! #onemotoshow #2020onemotoshow #flattrackracing #flattracker #hooligans #portlandoregon #indianmotorcyclesRelated Blogs
