The Monkees – She Makes me Laugh
I saw last night that the Mickey Dolenz and Peter Tork of the Monkees came out with a new song yesterday. I listened to the song a couple of times, and it was been in my head all day. Light, fairly catchy and pretty Monkee Like: If you’re not careful, it could put a little smile on yer face.
Also, yesterday I brought my computer into this decade. I’m pretty excited about it The parts came last night, and I finished putting it together it tonight. I’ll admit it, I’m a computer geek. I’d like to think I’m one of the cooler computer geeks out there, but still a geek. Fuckit. I like it, and this thing hauls ass. I need to render high resolution video for my drone, and the old machine wasn’t cutting it.
The CPU cooler on this thing is bigger than the Oil Cooler on my Harley.
Hope y’all have a good weekend! I’m going to stay up all night and play with this beast. Fast computers make my nipples hard.

Blast from the past
I got asked by the Easy Rider documentary crew to find some old bike pictures, and after a few days of digging through old boxes I managed to come up with some. I scanned em, and figgered I’d share.
Since motorcycles were invented it seems a certain few have gravitated toward them; I’m not sure why. “Freedom” always seems to be a little too cheap of an answer. I gotta think its deeper than that. I got no idea. I swear, there just may be a fucking biker Gene.
I always find it interesting to see why people ride, and ask the questions of why they connect with riding a two wheeled contraption that may become a magnetic force in their life. I’m not sure I’ve ever found the common denominator; All I know is if you love it, you’ll always love it. It ends up being a part of you. If you don’t, someone is gonna buy your bike with 800 miles on it out of your garage and make it his own, and you move on to other things….
Anyway, here’s some old pictures and such….
Got some old biker pictures and stories? I’d love to see em! Send them to alan@mrzip66.com or post em here.

21 days under the sky
Flipping through Netflix this weekend, looking for something inspiring to watch. For me, it’s always a crap shoot. I don’t love what the world produces most days, movie wise. Sometimes, you can find a pony in a pile of shit. I think this one is a stallion.
I’m pretty sure it’s not going to be famous, but for a road junkie like me it was a huge b-12 shot in the arm. I think it sorta woke me up. It’s guys out there who put the time and love into old bikes, and want to go see a place.
21 Days Under the Sky – Full Trailer from Fox Digital Studio Group on Vimeo.
I’ve been pouring over maps the last few days, measuring miles from my point A to a lot of point B’s. Its getting to be riding season. Time to go see a thing myself and feel some wind.
Time to ride.
