Found this on Twitter right after posting the Rockers vs Mods video. Though I usually wear a full-face helmet because I am a vain MFer.

Remember that photo shoot I was in a few months back? Here’s one of the resulting posters. A few weeks ago a group of scooterists and bikers met at an icehouse at 7 a.m. to film a short clip for the rally. I did a bad thing and violated the ATGATT creed so that I [...]

This weekend felt like it lasted forever. CLH has been busy trying to get his ’63 VNB running for Amerivespa, and I had two parties to go to in one day. Add to that the Buffett concert Thursday and two separate classes at Sheila Kelley’s S Factor (a.k.a. stripper school) and it was a busy [...]

I’ve been counting down the hours to Wednesday and Memorial Day weekend because our trip to San Antonio for Amerivespa starts off a summer of travel that will take me to the other side of the globe and back. I am excited. May 27-31 — AmeriVespa 2010 in San Antonio day ride to New Bruanfels [...]

My first slideshow ever went live on the Houston Press website last night, pictures from Jen’s third annual Pawdrophenia scooter ride benefiting SMART Animal Rescue. I fell in love love love with a pug with a bum leg but CLH would never let me take home another dog. He was so sweet. His name was [...]

In the middle of watching the Top Gear: Vietnam Special. But don’t read the link like I did, because spoilers abound. The entire episode is available on Youtube.

Rockers vs Mods

I was the Mod in a photoshoot Monday for the poster for the upcoming Houston Rockers vs Mods Rally. See more outtakes here. I hope our photographer, Jamie, has some mad Photoshop skillz because I look like a raging goofball in half of them. I had just met Crystal, the Rocker girl, about five minutes [...]

Teabaggers were protesting downtown yesterday because it was tax day. Wonder if they drove in their cars on roads (paid for by tax money) to get to Discovery Green (also paid for by tax money). Last weekend at the BMW motorcycle rally in Llano a couple of guys showed up with the Gadsden flag and [...]

Soul Nite

CLH and I got married at the original Aurora Picture Show church and yet, in all our years together and in Houston we’ve never been members. We go to tons of their events and pay full price for each one, and we’ve always talked about joining but just never have. Until Friday. All last week [...]

Helmet Hair Magazine, a Texas-based magazine catering to women who ride motorcycles, has branched into covering the scooterist lifestyle too. I have a column in their brand new section, Scooteristas Unite.
