Marlon Brando rode a Triumph in The Wild One.

I ride a Hawg (Harley).

I actually don’t know much about bikes, but I do like the Harleys. Whenever I see a group of bikes, I envy them and wish it was me there enjoying the breeze.

The Harley Heritage Soft Tail parked outside.

NOT that I am tall enough to ride it....but it sure is something!

 I lean on people power. My sister has a really nice Ducati Monster. It is quite pretty and light enough for a little person like me.

I agree with Heather M.

If I was to have a bike I would want it to be built by O.C.C.(Orange County Choppers.)

Love that show,Im a regular and paul Sr. is SMOKEN!!!!!

Well my baby is a 1974 Harley Shovelhead, which I still own, that I paid $8,000 for. I love it. Red is my color. It turns me on. I love that bike but I got tired of scraping myself off the pavement. The last straw was when I was driving down the road and my baby spit the chain off. Tore up the gear case. This was my moment of truth. I made the painful decision to go with the dependable Harley EVO after AMF bought out Harley.

Here`s my baby.

Now I`m ridin a 1997 Heritage Springer and I can tell you that as much as I dig red, the blue pearl is a chick magnet. This baby cost me 15 k, a steal!

Yup... those are photos of mine....... the slide show.......

Each friday the 13th Port Dover, Ontario on the shores of lake Erie, holds a bike rally. It's helt regardless of the weather. I've seen better custom bikes before but what you will see a lot of are bikes built by average guys and gals. So in that regard it is a more enjoyable show. The last few years the warmer weather events have had 2 or 3 thousand people show up. Next one I go to, I'll bring my digital with me and take some new photos.

Port Dover is a nice wee little town... rather rustic, but the beach is nice and Knechtals on the beach makes some of the best perch sandwiches going. So I just like to go.... grab a sandwich or two... sit on the beach... with a beer or two...LOL and just watch the world go by.

Some of the biker groups have chapter houses there, but that matters little to me. So some of you may be able to access info about Dover's Friday the 13th run through them. I like riding with them... I like having a beer and a chin-wag with most of them. I respect them.. they respect me, just like the world should be.... but I'm not much of a joiner. I was a monk for awhile, but couldn't bring myself to even continue being a joiner with that good group for long. Just not my nature.

Glad some of you have enjoyed the photos. I also have some interesting snaps of India and some of the wilder parts of Canada.... you're welcome to come have a peek.

ooooops sorry. My favourite Bike.

I'm not over keen on Harleys, they're okay.... but all the hype has made them too expensive when it comes to parts and they're rapidly becoming the domain of wanna-bes. But if you love Harleys, that's cool... what it comes down to is your own choice. For myself I admt to a fondness for rat bikes... those nasty little chopped down, ugly, purely function over form bikes. Yes... even Harley born rat bikes..LOL... I like them too.

I like Nortons though... bloody good bikes those were. I'm rough on my bikes, and my bikes are rough on me..LOL. They're tough buggers, Nortons. Ensign still makes a brute of a bike that you can find in India. They're like vampires, nearly impossible to kill and just as likely to do you in once you've grabbed hold of one, but a rat biker's dream.

I also admit to a secret longing for a Russ Mitchell bike.. like Zen works of art. I've always loved Indian Larry, but I think Russ just might have the stuff of legend if it doesn't all go to his head.

thanks for the invite......... I'll do a proper bio over on the right thread.

 [ send green star]

Ok looks like it is just you and me then - how about a nice ride in the Mountains and lunch in Big Bear?

 [ send green star]

I`ll be there in spirit!

Look at the lower right hand corner of this group. It will say if we have any members in your area you can possibly hook up with for rides.

 [ send green star]

Ok thanks - it is a nice ride from the summer heat in the Desert now, and big bear is so nice

 [ send green star]

Even if you dont dig Harleys the most, its all good. I like Nortons myself I just grew up spittin teeth, literally, on Harleys so have a love/hate relationship with them. LOL

I dig all bikes so I didnt start this group about just Harleys. This big ol world has more than enough room for all makes and styles I think.

 [ send green star]

agreed... wildone

ride what you love..... and not what impresses someone else.

 [ send green star]

I agree the Norton 750 Commando (70's) is a great bike as are many others down through history - with many more to come.

Ride on

I loved my Ural cossack. bitch to get bits for, always going wrong but when it was going it would plough a field before a honda or some other sowing machien could be warmed up enough to get off its stand

Harley Davidson Heritage Softail Classic, in blue plz. or an OCC bike will do

 [ send green star]

I forgot that I had this photo squirrelled away. Now if the world was truly fair and I got what I deserved then this would be my war pony...... with a very, very few modifications.

and this reply would have been scary, 'cause I would've likely have had to write it from the grave. I probably would've killed myself trying to find out fast it really goes. However it'd be a sweet ride to cruise down heaven's highways with some of my lost friends and brothers. So it'd be good either way.

 [ send green star]

nahhhh Jeff; I don't think anyone stole brother John's engine. I think it's one of those of those gas powered jobs...... a dozen taco bell specials... a six pack.. and away you go.

Love the photo brother John...... a little irreverancy is always good for the heart.

Thats a smooth bike but Hard Tails are Hell on the kidneys my man.

 [ send green star]

I live in CT and have talked with some folks that have worked on OCC bikes (since they are close to us). The are awsome bike to look at, but you wouldn't want to ride one. They break down ALOT and are mechanically not great.

My favorite bike is a BMW LT
