Another Run for Cheaha
Apr 25th
I’ll be attending the 8th Annual Cheaha Mountain Rally, May 2-4, 2008. This promises to be a heck of an event. Last year was a blast, complete with good friends, all-night motorcycle rides, more food than we could possibly eat, and weather I described as “Real wrath of God type stuff.”
I also expect to make it to The Downtown Grill in Cullman, Alabama in time for Thursday night’s festivities.
Hmmm…guess that means I ought to do some maintenance to my machine…some tread on the front tire might be nice…
I’ll see you on the road!

This just sucks on so many levels…they didn’t look hard enough for him, then the damn scavengers came along…

Riderless motorcycle befuddles Dallas police
BY BILL MILLER
First there was the report of a riderless motorcycle about 2:49 a.m. Sunday, speeding down a shoulder of Interstate 45 in south Dallas, at about 80 miles per hour.

“Volume One” In stock…
Apr 10th
Just a note…I have a few of these in stock. These are a limited edition. You can only order them from me or get them at a special event.
I only order these in limited quantities for special events, so I don’t have very many in stock. I just figure if I have any on hand for events, you (faithful readers) may as well have access to them as well!

Gathering of the Fools!
Apr 7th
Ahhhh…barbeque. Well, barbeque and bikes. What else could you need?
Oh…yeah…babes too. Well, there were a few of those too…but babes, as interesting and downright confusing as they are…are another story.
Anyway, I ran down to Hotglue and Flamingobabe’s 10th annual Gathering of the Fools Saturday. As usual, outstanding barbeque and top notch hospitality.
Thanks you two! Muchly!
The only smoker/barbeque I’ve ever seen with flames painted on:
Hotglue getting ready to unload the chickens. Must be 20 of ‘em in there…
The smoker side. I snapped this picture after is was mostly unloaded…
Getting ready to cut a little brisket…
A few bikes
A few more
At one point I counted over 60 machines…and there were more. Folks were coming and going on rides and runs all day.
Chicken. Brisket. Sausage. Beans, potato salad, coleslaw, trimmings (that means onions and pickles for you non bbq folk), and a wonderful bread pudding with rum sauce for desert. Yuuummmmm.
Old friends seen again, new friends made, and a large time had by all.
I headed home sometime after 9:00pm…the party was just getting started…a bonfire was about to start, along with the camper’s tall tales…but I had to ride. Three hundred miles or so of nighttime running bliss. Helps to keep my head screwed on straight. Besides, home’s where the babe was. Something like 600 miles and 10,000 calories for the day.
Y’all be safe…and Hotglue and Flamingobabe…if you ever need anything, just ask!

Will Ride for BBQ
Apr 2nd
I’ll be at Hotglue’s barbeque (otherwise known as “The Gathering of the Fools”) this Saturday. Those of you that know of this event, well, you know of this event. I swear I can smell the brisket already.
Anyway, a couple of folks have asked me if I would have books for sale there…
No. Yes. Sorta.
So, here’s the deal…I do not attend this sort of event to sell books…I’m a guest at another’s private (in this case extremely well attended, but still private) event.
In these cases, if you would like to get books from me at those events, you need to notify me in advance and I’ll be happy to bring the copies you request.
Otherwise we’ll just have to BS a lot and have a LARGE time, which of course, is my real reason for attending!
