Welcome, glorious Earthlings, to our return!

Here's to wishing everyone a wonderful new year.

Before things get crazy in 2017, let's start off with some motorcycle related fun!

I'm sorry that I've been sick. That and the tropical storms that have hit California for the last two weeks have almost kept me from riding and wrenching over the holidays.

Beginning in March, American Flat Track (AFT) will hit the track with it's new format. We talk about some of the new changes and why they happened. You can also read a great article on Asphalt and Rubber. NBCSN has also supplied a television contract that will start in July.

In case you didn't read Creative-Riding on Monday, Victory is closing it's doors to give Indian a fighting chance. We're left wondering what will become of the Empulse and Project 156 legacies.

Honda built a self balancing motorcycle that almost shut the internet down. They're also involved in a recall.

There's a large rant about social media and connective technology in this episode. Let's use social media for a good cause and promote some fellow motorcyclists in their endeavors:
