My intentions are to have something for everybody. Whether you ride a Big Dog Custom, Harley Davidson, Yamaha, <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Ducati</span>, Kawasaki, Honda, Scooter, whatever you ride, I try to have a site for you to go to go. A lot of the sites pertain to Harley Davidson, because I ride a Harley and that's where my primary <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">interest</span> lies.I have one or two gun sites and political sites. I try to keep North Texas Bikers a family oriented site and as such a "G" rated or "E" (everyone site). I will not knowingly link to any biker site that has porn or nudity, because of the rating. Kids may be on here <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">and</span> looking at <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">Vespa's</span> or dirt bikes and I sure don't want to expose them to a lot of smut. There are a LOT of great motorcycle sites out there that I had to delete because of the nudity/porn stuff.<br />I will continue to scour the web in search of new motorcycle blogs and web sites for all of our enjoyment, and if any of you find a site that I have overlooked, please e-mail me and I will remove it. The only thing I can tell you is that I look at the first page of the site or blog only. I do not dig <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">thru</span> an entire site before I link it to my site. If you find something on page 10 or page 32 of a site, then know that I did not dig that far to look for the stuff.<br />I also have links to some foreign sites that are done in that persons language. Unless they have a translate widget on their page, I figure the language of <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">motorcycles</span> is universal and we can see what they are trying to say by their pictures.<br />I hope those of you who like the bikes, booze and broads thing understand why I am doing the site this way. There are plenty of bikini shots for you to look at as the fairer sex lay on the assorted bikes <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error">thru</span> out the blog. But I post no nudity or porn and I try not to link to those sites that do.<br /><br />RIDE FREE <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" class="blsp-spelling-error">YA'LL</span> AND RIDE SAFE!!<br /><br />JOHNJOHNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14637299421371477999noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2099578428336254711.post-13216758160188231092011-01-18T12:58:00.000-08:002011-01-18T13:17:55.461-08:00MY NEW TRUCK 1-18-2011Just a quick post to show the "new" truck I got a week or so ago.

The sky was clear and the temps were to be in the low 60's, so I decided to ride visit some buddies and then when it warmed up, I'd head back to the house and wash my nasty motorcycle. Scroll down and join me on this short post as I get with Curtis and head up and see Tony.

Our ride was delayed because Curtis's heel shifter fell off and we had to turn around and go find it. Curtis laughingly told Tony later, " I pay $18 grand for a bike and pieces fall off."

I asked Tony how they did the paint like that. He said they put the black on first. then they put the blue and purple paint on. When the blue and purple get tacky, they crumble up plastic paper and lay it on top of the paint for a while. Then they peel it off.

When Tracy first opened up the Cafe, a contingent of members from the C.M.A. (Christian Motorcyclists Association) came out blessed the business and then went inside to eat breakfast. One of those members, Pete, came back and presented Tracy with the iron work of the Biker kneeling in front of the Cross. Tracy then asked Pete to mount the iron work to her sign post and he did.

The chef, I don't know her name but if you watch the Food Channel, then you'll recognize her made some main courses for Tracy. The episode is scheduled to air on March 7, 2011. Now, the vehicles they were in, had the Canadian Food Channel logo on them, so we don't know if it <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_9" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">will</span> air in the US or just in Canada. Tracy will find out for sure, because she and the chef and the program director are friends now and they call each other weekly.

I am not dissing anyone who cooks and there are plenty of excellent pie makers all over the world, but in my opinion and a couple of folks from the Food Channel, you have NEVER had any pie close to Tracy's.<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9kr-wWTbx7tJ4ULxXN04GejSYuzWW82q5fKhKzKpFIqZExqhQCVD6NUeXallMydyw9P4KdgDAcygVzIuQMsog-g2ZnqtP-ZMLLh4KGgA0F9nn4fgAWq_jNxS56NyK7WpX6CDJHzBe6Mg/s1600/100_5524.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5560377067363739634" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9kr-wWTbx7tJ4ULxXN04GejSYuzWW82q5fKhKzKpFIqZExqhQCVD6NUeXallMydyw9P4KdgDAcygVzIuQMsog-g2ZnqtP-ZMLLh4KGgA0F9nn4fgAWq_jNxS56NyK7WpX6CDJHzBe6Mg/s320/100_5524.JPG" /></a> Janice is working n her piece of French Chocolate Silk pie.

One to cook his food, one to massage his aching muscles and back after a hard day at the dealership, one to bath & dress him, one to clean his Harley, and all will get the opportunity to ride with him and be with him & snuggle on those cold, dark Texas winter nights. Or if you are woman enough to do all these things, call Red River Harley Davidson today and ask for Jim. You'll be glad you did.

The Byers Cafe does not have a web site yet so I will give ya all the info I know: The Byers Cafe sits on the SW corner of TX HWY 79 & Main St. in Byers Texas. It is a family owned business and Tracy, the owner is known for her desserts. The Food Network was there a few months ago and the Byers Cafe will be highlighted on the March 7, 2011 show. The food is outstanding and very reasonably priced. Thursday is RIB day, the reason we rode up there today. To contact the Byers Cafe or if you have any questions for Tracy, the phone number is: 940-529-6570. Oh yeah, the Byers Cafe is also BIKER FRIENDLY. Stop in and say hi if you are ever in the area and try a piece of Tracy's award winning Coconut Cream Pie.<br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhim5qoIKCNkmCcLYnl5in-5MyJEmzzFcNhAonusMUnbwtzoxggi_Fk1bIoLN40JEC5dZ0LWfeFze_4joDbnjXlZO4ze4DDzmz3z_1VVmX2hKdvko-Zry-AQoHGrmJb54jLBs23ZhreDB8/s1600/100_5316.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558351627889690018" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhim5qoIKCNkmCcLYnl5in-5MyJEmzzFcNhAonusMUnbwtzoxggi_Fk1bIoLN40JEC5dZ0LWfeFze_4joDbnjXlZO4ze4DDzmz3z_1VVmX2hKdvko-Zry-AQoHGrmJb54jLBs23ZhreDB8/s320/100_5316.JPG" /></a> Pete (blue) and Tim (black) look at the "Bikers Welcome" sign that Pete made for Tracy and is attached to the main sign.<br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJZl5Eujyrt0QDIfGgQ7MZuNJ4l_wpSC9r5ulJcvfFojMGlfbFw9F_MqJvi6uDyAEKV-0TIr_BB3F7sHOKY5BihcwMYraEfJyvZlu9i51vaofiyElwaUDBdlsgoGsuwderEAJ1YOZPXYQ/s1600/100_5317.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558349986619560034" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJZl5Eujyrt0QDIfGgQ7MZuNJ4l_wpSC9r5ulJcvfFojMGlfbFw9F_MqJvi6uDyAEKV-0TIr_BB3F7sHOKY5BihcwMYraEfJyvZlu9i51vaofiyElwaUDBdlsgoGsuwderEAJ1YOZPXYQ/s320/100_5317.JPG" /></a> Lance & Pattie gear up as we get ready to head back towards Wichita Falls.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfaKOLzVTbOuD5RpNmKNkb4Eh1bjLK5OhkedKM3nJshwCQCWgdDHX6ouZ0eA2iW5NAAHj2JGkTgeU_XHAh6Ui9GQeTaqYkSJCoI54n2Gsh1JT_JAwBcEsYf9VsCKSAS9YvHPWdnLE4BBg/s1600/100_5318.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558349981444856530" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfaKOLzVTbOuD5RpNmKNkb4Eh1bjLK5OhkedKM3nJshwCQCWgdDHX6ouZ0eA2iW5NAAHj2JGkTgeU_XHAh6Ui9GQeTaqYkSJCoI54n2Gsh1JT_JAwBcEsYf9VsCKSAS9YvHPWdnLE4BBg/s320/100_5318.JPG" /></a> Some of the bikes out back.

There is nothing like cruising down the highways and byways at 70-80 mph by yourself or in the company of 15-50 other bikes.

Jim is priced right and you should give him a call for your motorcycle needs. The man is good at what he does and most of his business comes by word of mouth and when folks ride down from Oklahoma and up from the Dallas <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">Metroplex</span> to see Jim, then that ought to tell you how good he is and how well he treats his customers.

That is Jim's 73 Corvette Stingray he is restoring. It has got to be the smoothest running Corvette I have ever heard.

The U.S. Marines should recognize these men as they are a difinite asset to the Marine Corps. I thank you for your service, dedication and sacrifice to the United States in keeping us free. May God protect you in your future assignments and put a hedge of protection around you daily.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTyhObczvrxHesH2hVtDYwQnlcBb3UutsWqPmgy6K6jOcYYxPr4b1NkqnmBhoNGb-Vp79Yie55M-U_YI5NaifulVsryI5MnO3WcuOZgyP1gEuc5xtAsqVKQXmtxkyby1zDhGo9-pQj8ZE/s1600/100_5005.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 282px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549124817175124130" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTyhObczvrxHesH2hVtDYwQnlcBb3UutsWqPmgy6K6jOcYYxPr4b1NkqnmBhoNGb-Vp79Yie55M-U_YI5NaifulVsryI5MnO3WcuOZgyP1gEuc5xtAsqVKQXmtxkyby1zDhGo9-pQj8ZE/s320/100_5005.JPG" /></a> Ted heads back to the support truck after checking the flags<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDeAAxhplQpF92eZxe3_Yo-cC0_GdCmS10ve9lP9JAg-sUp3IP01VWgMoaHXFn0tUszzaPIGZ1XDnfnWRxemCCv_E5_S-GV1EurnmZ2nvEBfPO8EYNwR_Auf4ZL0QPzEtXwSIvILqOBkI/s1600/100_5007.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549124812238777170" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDeAAxhplQpF92eZxe3_Yo-cC0_GdCmS10ve9lP9JAg-sUp3IP01VWgMoaHXFn0tUszzaPIGZ1XDnfnWRxemCCv_E5_S-GV1EurnmZ2nvEBfPO8EYNwR_Auf4ZL0QPzEtXwSIvILqOBkI/s320/100_5007.JPG" /></a> The static flag line as seen from the entrance of the cemetery<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGNIUXF8nPNR1OlRZCBk33FZ8bv_t2mftWyk4_FVJqtiw0tSE1RvDrKkOMTWck0Cdj4OlIrY8qHPko1ycORRpU65EP6BnTwplkx0uix3J8VMFmPVX5gUfKsgAUTmaun9g_K1cKR_R8H8E/s1600/100_5008.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549124802126657506" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGNIUXF8nPNR1OlRZCBk33FZ8bv_t2mftWyk4_FVJqtiw0tSE1RvDrKkOMTWck0Cdj4OlIrY8qHPko1ycORRpU65EP6BnTwplkx0uix3J8VMFmPVX5gUfKsgAUTmaun9g_K1cKR_R8H8E/s320/100_5008.JPG" /></a> The back of Tim's vest.

Thanks Russ, you da man!!<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUKbDlx_4LmbgUnrBqPruuADhh5h-eTUNiPpr3fnpj-EhIn55lnWvnrXBjwqE0ceggmG6IV0Pi90zEUx7dBnWOQ7onW9Vl0wFi0G4k_7369ohkMzuhyphenhyphen0ohBP29GHuhyOLq27e8MItDdII/s1600/IMG_0503.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539867022459212146" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUKbDlx_4LmbgUnrBqPruuADhh5h-eTUNiPpr3fnpj-EhIn55lnWvnrXBjwqE0ceggmG6IV0Pi90zEUx7dBnWOQ7onW9Vl0wFi0G4k_7369ohkMzuhyphenhyphen0ohBP29GHuhyOLq27e8MItDdII/s320/IMG_0503.JPG" /></a> Here s Richard getting something from his bike<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjaK3yKuIBj5hB4wAsyFRJ7d6DqBP5z41E2oBRApQlaRn59f-AGx_6a7JyDZbkaNj8CjB4n3TXUfal-PeL_GGiB1qq-TP9K8mib_Gc9mUKztF2AjGrUfpZ_d0vX-cy1_97xHMd3o9aQTw/s1600/IMG_0504.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539867015504949330" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjaK3yKuIBj5hB4wAsyFRJ7d6DqBP5z41E2oBRApQlaRn59f-AGx_6a7JyDZbkaNj8CjB4n3TXUfal-PeL_GGiB1qq-TP9K8mib_Gc9mUKztF2AjGrUfpZ_d0vX-cy1_97xHMd3o9aQTw/s320/IMG_0504.JPG" /></a> Here are some of the bikes and some of the riders talking after the Fun Run was over and folks were leaving </div><div> </div><div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeRfe2s9HqwyOpdsxYTWlZLRvlP2DpW_nuAYRdt60FkoStEJ54u8Z0yhAITqD0ZwrRZekwoJiTm2ePO1gNRJb2VFk-MpIHPCtPqheFLfLiRrsOFUVsN4e5Un6ZjMpMzwOsQ3QESV2-MsU/s1600/IMG_0506.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539867002850412690" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeRfe2s9HqwyOpdsxYTWlZLRvlP2DpW_nuAYRdt60FkoStEJ54u8Z0yhAITqD0ZwrRZekwoJiTm2ePO1gNRJb2VFk-MpIHPCtPqheFLfLiRrsOFUVsN4e5Un6ZjMpMzwOsQ3QESV2-MsU/s320/IMG_0506.JPG" /></a> Another view of some of the bikes on today's ride. After the ride, several riders went inside the Roadhouse to eat. The Roadhouse had donated two meals for door prizes and they gave a 10% discount to all the folks that rode in the 2nd Annual Miracle League Fun Run.
