The Trailblazer’s Motorcycle Club
 
I am extremely fortunate and honored to have been a member of the Trailblazers for many years now. We just attended their annual banquet. As usual it was a fantastic evening spent catching up with long time industry friends, seeing legends and meeting new motorcycle people. I get the chills when I walk into the event because it is filled with so many racing heroes, industry VIP’s, industry businessmen and simply a whole lot of wonderful people. There is a motorcycle show, as well as the induction of several members into the Trailblazers Hall of Fame. 
 
The Trailblazers have been hosting this banquet since 1940, and every year it buzzes with history and excitement. The names of past attendees and members include many history making motorcyclists such as Dick Mann, Don Emde, Kenny Roberts, Mert Lawwill, Sammy Tanner, Eddie Lawson, Malcom Smith, and I could keep going for a long time! These are legends of our sport, and it is wonderful to see more deserving members get inducted into the Hall of Fame every year.
 
I can’t wait for next year’s event!
Here Are 5 Reasons Why Motorbike Commuting Is The Best Commuting
Don't fear the fuel pump.
Motorcycle sales got a much-needed shot in the arm over the course of the pandemic. The reason why was pretty simple: People wanted to keep their distance, but they still also needed to get places. Those same people either discovered or remembered that motorbikes can be both practical AND fun at the same time—and, very importantly, many of them also cost quite a bit less to own than cars.  
Now that it’s April, 2022, rising fuel prices seems to be yet another argument in favor of motorbikes. That particular pain-in-the-pocketbook isn’t entirely new, of course. Chances are excellent that if you’ve been around for a few cycles, you’ve seen the same thing at least once before. Still, the mere fact that we’ve previously dealt with it doesn’t make it any less painful. As fuel prices fluctuate, one great way to fuel-price-proof your everyday errands is by getting yourself a shiny, new (or new-to-you) motorbike. 
I spent years doing a pretty hefty commute by motorbike (around 80 miles every day, at its longest), so here are a few reasons you might want to give it a try.
