food in da ‘hood
Used to be we had local food shops all around the ‘hood, at least i used to have stores like this nearby. I came from a place that had a lot of this…type of life and energy on the street. Going to the Supermarket just isn’t the same as visiting the local specialists: bread, meat, […]

goose
I love the style of Italian marques, MV, Ducati and of course Moto Guzzi. Some years back I had a V11 to ride for a bit…damn bike crippled me ergonomics wise, but it had one hell of a torquey engine and truly had the look of a swoopy sex machine nailed down tight.

the good stuff
the good stuff does not come from supermarkets, the good stuff comes from places that are fast disappearing… places that are special, places that are a pain in the ass to get to, where parking sucks, places that are not the cheapest, but the best.

sex machine
MV Agusta, in all reality are the ultimate shit in many regards when considering a hi-style, hi-tone son of a bitch race bike that can handle the streets… Aprilla an Ducati are two more, but I am not thinking of them at this moment… And ya know, I can’t say with any degree of honesty […]
