Re: Article in the paper

Its kinda cool though, CUz in the paper they used the photo of me doin an endo, and they made it really big like half the page.

N this is the main paper that everyone gets here in pittsburgh.

Re: Article in the paper

I had a similar incident a while back myself. They really didnt twist my words at all but the military wasnt to thrilled. They tried to nail me because my visor wasnt down. LOL. Click on the words to read the article.

Re: Article in the paper

I think doin that interview just made it worse for yourself. Everyone reading that story now knows your name, your bike, and what you look like.

Re: Article in the paper

SIC Riders, Kane, and Kavi from Ruff Ryders did a show for ABATE of California. They freaking loved the stuff we were doing....haha.... That article is pretty good. It points out a lot that we want this sport to go mainstream. That might help a little.

Re: Article in the paper

ehhhhh whats the worst that can happen really?

unless the cops station an officer at the end of my street to follow me everytime i go ridin, then its not much different than the past. We get harassed by every damn cop that drives by anyway, i just gotta be hella careful on the street now, and my bike is all legit now also, I even bought insurance today LOL

HAHA once gave HD riders a bad name! Like people don't dress up as badasses and ride to sturgis every year. I think that image pretty much made harley davidson. Its all about the lots man, even the people who call 911 on the highway are gonna be the ones who sit and watch when your doing it in a lot. Streets are always gonna give a rush and be more fun, but to really improve and be legit ya just gotta search out places that are legit.

It’s just when you ride, nothing else exists. Whatever issues, problems, anything…going on, once you’re on that bike you tend to not worry about it

Exxxactly, well stated

Re: Article in the paper

Obviously, y'all just don't freakin' get it. They truly don't care why you do what you do, and they stick a microphone in your face or a camera, or a pen and paper and show some media credentials and y'all just spill your ****in' guts. When will you get it, they hate us were a proverbial thorn in the side of society. Will that stop us, most of us no, but just know that just 'cause they come to you and smile in your face, They will be the same one's callin' the cops in on your location........That's all I got, like or don't, but I already know what to expect. Peace, y'all keep doin' interviews, that just strengthens my point..........Late.........Free C........ Major without a Major.

Re: Article in the paper

What they fail to mention is that 60% of motorcycle fatalities are from the mid-life chrisis cruiser riders in the 40+ age group demographic.

I hope this article does some good and doesnt come back to haunt you. Congrats for actually speaking out to the paper and telling them the way it is... even if they might have twisted your words.

Good job! Keep it up!
