Every rider hits that moment. You are a few miles into a day ride or a multi-day run, and realize the stuff you actually need is never where you need it. While riding recently, I met a couple having a minor issue with their bike, but no tools. Lucky for them, I have a Handlebar […]
It’s the weekend, and let’s face it, if you own a rifle, at some point on a Saturday you’ve stared at it and thought, Man, this thing would look slick in coyote tan. Then you’re hit with a dilemma: do you fork over the cash to get a professional cerakote job, or do you grab […]
Normally we have one good cold spell here in NW Florida each winter, 5 maybe 6 days where the nights are below freezing and the days are maybe 40deg. They already enjoyed a beautiful white winter in January this year (complete with 9 inches of snow) while I was attending SHOT Show in Las Vegas. […]
