I know it’s almost Labor day, but don’t put away your bikini just yet… it’s time for the All Girls Scooter Rally! This year it’s back in Palm Springs, and I’m happy to be a sponsor again.

As much as I love having crash bars on my scooter, I’ve found the ones I have to be a pain - literally. As you can see in the before picture, there’s a segment of the rear crash bar that stuck out a couple of inches. Unfortunately, I ended up with a perpetual bruise […]

I finally got to test my Joe Rocket Sahara vest that I won on ebay for $15 (they usually sell for about $70-$80). After riding in oppressive heat last summer, and with an even hotter summer this year, I’ve had my eye on this vest for awhile, and when I spotted it on ebay, I […]
