Here's my favorite pic of me and my Dad with our rides, taken by good friend Eryk Frias.

Remembering Otis

Today marks 45 years since Otis Redding's plane crashed, killing him and his band, the Bar Kays: Jimmy King, Ron Caldwell, Phalin Jones and Carl Cunningham. Only their trumpet player Ben Cauley survived.

Otis is by far my favorite vocalist. His voice carried so much emotion in it, you can't help but be moved by him.

So remember, when life is playing rough, just try a little tenderness.

RIP Otis

Keep it Classy

Offbeat Bikes

When it comes to just about anything, daring to be different can yield some very cool or some very bad results, though "different" is often times simply synonymous with "bizarre".

I recently went on a hunt for different & cool. Here's some bitchin' sickles built from unusual, uncommon or flatout rare breeds of bike. How many could you name just by looking at the engine?

Music Lovers

Metal is my favorite music (Progressive & Technical Death Metal, to be exact). But I love music in all its forms. That in mind, I just wanted to share today's MP3 player-on-random, morning-commute playlist! Enjoy :)
