I don’t even like Harley Davidson’s. They are loud and I mean they used to be cool when the real core guys rode them but now there is that show called American Chopper and they are not so cool. Why do we watch shows about things that we would otherwise never care about? I should make a show about basket weaving. Would people watch that show?

its kinda like Modern Marvels or something, you’ll be glued to the tv for an hour watching a show about the history of the pencil or something ridiculous. Or How It’s Made… who cares about how they make a toothbrush? no one, but you’ll watch it.

I am a vivid beginner motorcycle rider living in Virginia. I went home to Kentucky (where I am from) and had the opportunity to ride with some good African American Motorcycle clubs. They told me that they want to expand to Virginia like they did in Ohio, florida, georgia, and North Carolina. I need help in expanding and starting the club in Virginia. Im looking for suggestings on how to get people in the club. I dont have any motorcycle rider friends in VA.

A motorcycle club is very different than an organization. A motorcycle club or MC is considered to be the 1%. These are the serious clubs such as Hell’s Angels, Banditos, Sons of Silence…among others. Organizations are Christian Motorcycle Groups and my favorite– Bikers Against Child Abuse (BACA) in which I am a member. If you want to start a MC you will need to be sanctioned by the AMA, and obtain the blessings of the 1%.

Next comes chapter development…. if your state is biker friendly, you should not have a hard time recruiting for an organization. The MC stigma is really hard to overcome for the older folk. What we have done to recruit new members is sit down with a reporter to get the word out, go to rallies to set up a table, and go to fairs.

Good luck to you in your endevour!! Happy riding!

Would they just be at a loss when I died ? What if I started buying my friends gifts such as motorcycles, cars ect.?

it could go to your parent’s, or it could to your spouse or children.

it was so funny! I think it compared and American motorcycle to a motorcycle from Pakistan…or some other country, I am not sure. The American sounded like a real motorcycle and the other one was some guy making the sound. Has anyone else received that email and can you please tell me how to find it?

Checked around Nancy but found nothing Sorry……..

One believes that the two people you mention are such avid contributors here because their lives are filled with great struggle, and they find this a convenient place to take out their rage and frustration on others.

One believes that this is quite common on the Internet nowdays, and probably accounts for the fact that YA gives each member a blocking device.

I am trying to buy an AIROH Air Mathisse helmet but getting one shipped from overseas is such a bother, no company thus far has wanted to sell me one.

Friend, If you have found someone in the states that sells these helmets, make sure you contact me. I am also in search of an Airoh Helmet.

Thank you

What is the meaning of the shows, i have understand so much that it is about motorcycles and cars, but what are they doing on a channel meant to Discover new things like the mayan civillisation nor the universe, why then take with dirty jobs, American Chopper, American Hotrod, ultimate Cars and with everything regarding cars, i know they have Discovery Turbo, why not move them to that channel instead of showing them on the original channel. What do you think.

they are more interested in making tv than the job they set out to do in the first place, and surprise surprise every project runs over !?

they aren’t informative at all and in my opinion would be better placed on another channel.

having said that they are sometimes entertaining, but in no way informative, it’s also annoying with the massive banners all over the workshops for tool suppliers etc, but they obviously bring in a good advertising revenue so they won’t be dissapearing anytime soon.

a much better (informative and entertainment wise) show is the series of shows with Mark Evans presenting, including "a racing car is born" "a 4X4 is born" "a plane is born" etc.

on the other hand if you’re interested in actually learning anything don’t bother with "Chop shop" – London garage or "The Garage"
