The Outliers Guild Motorcycle show in Los Angeles

Well this morning I loaded up the van and took the Harlequin Honda down the 5 Freeway to Los Angeles, fighting traffic all the way and then off at Seventh street, I passed a few Old style warehouses and new I was in the right area for this weekends OG show.

So, I pulled up on Anderson in the Industrial area and drove round the back where a friend of mine Donald Leonhardt was helping out and offered to give me a hand take the bike out, Cheers Don I was stoked to have help, as the 750 is no lightweight machine.

We eased the bike into the old Warehouse and there was a hive of activity, the smell of fresh paint and cut timber filled the air, along the concrete floor are a number of hand made wooden Pallet style platforms, for which the “Invited Builders” will be displaying their machines and I was lucky enough to be one of those builders.

So many cool machines had already turned up and the amount of attention to detail and engineering feats were mind boggling, Leonardo Devinci would of been right at home here, and to add to that, the building next door will be displaying cool art and design, as well as that, there were a few cool areas for Vendors. Such as Beringer Brakes, Deus, Tobbaco Motowear Co, Stellar Mo brand and many many more.

The building is a superb venue and you can look at the bikes that are on the Wooden platforms, check out the vendors upstairs etc and then walk out the building into the alley at the rear to see more Vendors, more motorcycles and yest another building where the Art show will be, so a great Horseshoe shaped event thats super easy to navigate.

Many bikes will be there, close to 100 I should think, so if you have a chance, get down to the show this weekend, it will be a fun place to be for sure. I am looking forward to see what all is on display, love seeing other bikes that have been created.

East Side Moto Babes show

Well, Riding motorcycles has always been a massive part of my life, I also support many Motorcycle events and wanted to support my Girlfriend Jennifer as she rode to LA, to the Peterson Museum to attend East Side Moto Babes event that is trying to raise awareness to Homeless Women.

This event is benefiting the Downtown Women’s Center and their mission is:

The Mission of the Downtown Women’s Center is to provide 
permanent supportive housing and a safe and healthy community 
fostering dignity, respect, and personal stability, 
and to advocate ending homelessness for women.

For women living on the streets or in night-to-night shelters, our drop-in Day Center provides a respite from the rigors of the street while also providing essential services.

East Side Moto Babes, established in 2010 in Los Angeles, is an all-female motorcycle club that rides and races motorcycles.

By encouraging and promoting camaraderie and community between female and male riders alike we build skills, confidence, and bonds that extend all over the world.

We challenge stereotypes and build bridges through our events and rides that promote safe riding practices. By being inclusive we encourage others to come along for the ride which for us is more about challenging oneself, facing fears, personal courage, and empowerment.

The ride down to LA was a bumpy one, the 5 freeway is not a friend of ANY 2 wheeled machine and my vertebrae thanked me later when I got home.

But there was a cool turn out, music was blasting, people were chatting and food was cooking, with Many Vendors offering their wares too, this made out to be a really fun get together and ALL for a super cause.

Plenty to see, and do, it was great to see so many women who ride Motorcycles, I am always pushing to see more girls on machines and today was really a good vibe going and of course a very worthy cause at the end of the day.
