I like to observe other bikers and usually get a chuckle out of trying to match the biker to the bike.

Oh, by the way Navarre Beach is in the Florida Panhandle! - How To Buy Protective Motorcycle Clothing That Does More Than Just Look Good

When I was in the automotive industry I saw the extension of car loans going into 54, then 60, then 72 months and with the extension of the loan installments came the inevitable negative equity. In general the longer the term you finance for the more likely you are to find yourself "upside down".

But beauty is only skin deep or in this case tread deep. Having the proper tread for the terrain you are riding can be the difference between a great day and a trip to the hospital. - When Buying Motorcycle Boots Safety Takes First Place Over Fashion
Today bikers are trend setters. Gone are the days when their typical trademark was their big black boots, leather gloves and heavy chains and rings.

They wear funky elbow and knee caps of different colors and styles to sport their look.
