Biker Rally Shirts: The Truly Great Reasons For Them Posted By: joshkn5qha

It doesn't matter what biker rally or festival you attend in any part of the usa, you'll find a lot of wares available for sale such as shirts, trinkets, patches, or souvenirs. Some of the shirts that are available are not that great but some of them are truly amazing. In my humble opinion, to get the best biker rally shirts, the rallies in places like Daytona Beach, Laconia or Sturgis will have to be attended. I'm not sure why this is true, but perhaps it's because the vast majority of the vendors are also bikers themselves. These vendors are also extremely passionate about individual motorcycles and riding just like the others who attend the rallies. You can see this passion in their work. Biker rally shirts really have evolved throughout the last few decades and these days they are more like works of art than anything else. I saw one t-shirt from the Sturgis rally last year which incorporated a massive bald eagle head on the front. The detail on this shirt really was amazing. From a few feet away it seemed to like you could just reach out and actually touch the feathers.

The New Defensive Stock Of The Decade Posted By: Jlevy

Things have gotten rough in the financial markets. Investors are looking for the next "safe haven" stock. And I'll show you how you can buy it for 10% less than where it's trading at! Let's look at why investors are looking at defensive stocks right now. When times get tough, investors start to eye traditional defensive companies like Johnson AND Johnson (JNJ:NYSE), Clorox (CLX:NYSE), Pfizer (PFE:NYSE) and Procter AND Gamble (PG:NYSE). Utility and energy companies like Exelon (EXC:NYSE) and Exxon Mobil (XOM:NYSE) also attract investors when the future looks murky. Tobacco and alcohol giants like Phillip Morris (PM:NYSE) and Diageo (DEO:NYSE) tend to come into favor, too, because consumers take up more bad habits when they are experiencing hardships in a down economy. Usually defensive companies like these increase in popularity after the market has had a bullish run and a slowdown seems like the next step of the economy. Investors see these defensive stocks as a "safe haven." But even though they are considered defensive, these stocks can and will drop in value.

Motorcycle Traveling And Tips To Prepare You Posted By: Robert Hoffman

One of the best ways to truly see the United States is from the saddle of a motorcycle. I have ridden through many states with trips over six thousand miles in length including two solo trips from New Jersey to the Sturgis Rally in South Dakota, and to Pike's Peak in Colorado. I have found some tips and techniques that have worked well for me and I'd like to share them with you. There are basically two ways to travel by motorcycle, probably one of the more popular but less spiritual is what some call "credit card camping" which is basically rolling from hotel to motel for your sleeping accommodations and buying all your meals on the road. I look forward to trying this method someday when my writing starts raking in the big bucks.


The Truth About Motorcycle Clubs Or Groups Posted By: Robert Hoffman

Most of the old motorcycle movies involve motorcycle clubs in some way. In The Wild One, Marlon Brando played Johnny, the leader of the Black Rebels Motorcycle Club (BRMC). The image portrayed on the screen of the average motorcycle club was often not flattering. To the average non-motorcyclist today, a motorcycle club is often synonymous with a motorcycle gang. My experience with motorcycle clubs and other motorcycle groups is quite the opposite. Motorcycle clubs (also known as MCs or M/Cs) have been around since the introduction of the motorcycle. If you visit any motorcycle museum, look for the old pictures of motorcycle clubs hanging on the walls. Of course, any club is just a group of people who band together for support and fellowship whether it's a stitching club, a fishing club, or a motorcycle club. The Gold Wing Road Riders Association (GWRRA) , the Harley Owners Group (H.O.G.), the BMW Motorcycle Owners of America (BMWMOA), the Women on Wheels (W.O.W.), the Motor Maids, and the Women in the Wind (W.I.T.W.) are each national organizations that have local motorcycle club, association, or other group chapters.

Most riders start out by attending a motorcycle rally or biker rally for a day with an overnight stay that could include camping. Subsequent visits to motorcycle rallies are usually longer. Motorcycle rallies come in all sizes from a few hundred people to over 500,000. Motorcycle rallies usually charge a fee if you want to participate in the rally activities. Many riders don't bother to register -- they just show up and hang out. There are three really big motorcycle or biker rallies: Sturgis, SD; Daytona, FL and Laconia, NH. These motorcycle rallies have a majority of Harley-Davidson riders and tend to be noisy and crowded. They attract in the hundreds of thousands, sometimes approaching one million. Just being at a motorcycle rally is quite an experience. You get to meet riders from all over the country and see bikes you've never seen before. There are plenty of stories to listen to as you meet riders. You'll find many two-up riders and plenty of spontaneous conversation. It's a place where people from all backgrounds can let their hair down and have fun with their motorcycles.
