1980 Suzuki GS1000G: New Project Bike [Overview]

I used to restore bikes a lot and then moved away from it for a variety of reasons over the past few years. But this Suzuki GS1000 is a bit of a "family" bike and it was given to me for free, so I'm really looking forward to turning it into something wild. It will be an ode to the old-school superbikes of the '70s and '80s when I'm done with it.

Harley-Davidson to show earnings for Q1, but continues its epic slide | What went wrong with this brand?

Even though Harley's freefall as a company continues, it looks like they will actually post earnings for Q1 according to THIS STORY from Yahoo! Finance. That wasn't expected and buys them a little more time in the wake of having recently stopped a partial takeover. Here's hoping they figure out a way to turn things around, but according to the current numbers, it's gonna take more than their few remaining loyalists to save this dinosaur from extinction.

Finding Ruins in a Time of Ruin

There's a lot of wide open space in far West Texas. Considering the current state of things, we decided to go find some of it. Along the way, we found more abandoned ruins in the middle of nowhere and enjoyed fresh air on a very early spring day. Come along and join us. It's not like you're doing anything else right now. Bonus Material: Below are a few extra photos from the ride that I didn't use in the montages. I thought I'd include them here since they turned out pretty nice. I've been thinking of doing some macro work on future rides as there's a lot of interesting stuff happening on a small scale within the flora and fauna. We'll see how the year progresses. Fingers crossed for something resembling normal sooner rather than later.
