Life is not a journey
to the grave with
the intention of
arriving safely in a
well preserved
body, but rather to
skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up,
totally worn out,
and loudly
proclaiming:   
 
WOW! -- WHAT A
RIDE!!!
Submitted by: Rocco


With his saddlebags filled with toys and other assorted trinkets for the kids at a group home, near
where he worked.

As he rode along that night thinking how lucky he had been in life, having a loving riding partner that
understood his need to roam the highways and to his trusty old pan that hadn't let him down once in
the many years they shared the road together.

Well about 40 miles north of the border, in the high desert lurked a small group of those notorious
little critters known as road gremlins, you know the ones that always leave little obstacles like, one
shoe, boards, pieces of old tires, and dig the dreaded pot holes for bikers to run over and crash thus
giving the road gremlins a chance to rejoice over their acts of evil.

Well as the lone wolf of a biker rounded a curve that moonlit night the gremlins ambushed him,
causing him to crash to the asphalt and skid for always before coming to a stop, next to one of his
saddlebags that had broken free. As he lay there, unable to move, the road gremlins made their move
towards him. Well this biker not being one to give up started throwing things at the gremlins as they
approached him. Finally with nothing else to throw but a bell he started ringing it, in hopes to scare
off the dirty little gremlins.

About a half a mile away camped in the desert, were two bikers sitting around the camp fire talking
about their days ride, and the freedom of the wind blowing in their faces as they rode across this
vast country. In the stillness of the night air, they heard what sounded to them like church bells
ringing and upon investigating, found the old biker lying along the roadside with the gremlins about to
get him. Needless to say, being part of the biker brotherhood they preceded to ward off the
gremlins until the last of gremlins ran off into the night.

Being grateful to the two bikers the old road dog offered to pay them for their help, but as all true
bikers do, they refused to accept any type of payment from him. Not being one to let a good deed go
unnoticed, the old biker cut two pieces of leather from his saddle bags tassels and tied a bell to each
one, then slowly placed them on each of the bikers motorcycles, as near to the ground as possible.
The
tired, old road warrior, then told the two travelers that with those bells placed on their bikes they
would be protected from the road gremlins and that if ever in trouble, just ring the bell and a fellow
biker will come to their aid.



Many of us have heard the story about Evil Road Spirits. They are little gremlins that live on your bike. They love to ride. They're also
responsible for most of your bike's problems. Sometimes your turn signals refuse to work, or the battery goes dead, the clutch needs
adjustment, or any of several hundred things go wrong. These problems are caused by Evil Road Spirits.

Road spirits can't live in the presence of the bell. They get trapped in the hollow of the bell. Among other things, their hearing is
supersensitive. The constant ringing of the bell and the confined space drives them insane. They lose their grip and eventually fall to the
roadway. (have you ever wondered how potholes are formed?)
The bell has served its purpose.

If you pick up a bell of your own, the magic will work. But if your bell was given to you, the power is doubled, and you know that somewhere
you have a special friend helping to look after you.

So if you have a friend that doesn't have a bell, why not be the person to give them one? its a nice feeling for the recipient to know you
personally cared. The bell, plus a good preventive maintenance program by the bikes owner, will help eliminate the Evil Road Spirits.



It has been a tradition among some of us for a long
time to attach a brass bell to our left swing arm, to
remember our brothers and sisters who have gone
down riding.

It’s a small thing, but the reason a brass bell is
chosen is that, as we ride, it gets dirty and tarnished.
Every time we get down to wash and polish it, we are
reminded of friends lost, and our thoughts turn to the
meaning of being in the wind.

As we ride and hear the bell ring, we know that our
brothers and sisters are riding with us, and how easy it
would be to join them with a single mistake.

And maybe, just maybe, the next time a situation
comes up; they will be there to help us...as long as we
remember them by polishing the bell.

Grab life by the throttle....
And don't look back!!!

Another year has passed
and we're all a little older.
Last summer felt hotter
and winter seems much
colder.

There was a time not long
ago when life was quite a
blast. Now I fully
understand about 'Living
in the Past'

We used to go to
weddings, football games
and lunches. Now we go
to funeral homes,and
after-funeral brunches.

We used to have
hangovers, from parties
that were gay. Now we
suffer body aches and wile
the night away.

We used to go out dining,
and couldn't get our fill.
Now we ask for doggie
bags, come home and
take a pill.

We used to often travel
to places near and far.
Now we get sore asses
from riding in the car.

We used to go to
nightclubs and drink a little
booze. Now we stay home
at night and watch the
evening news.

That, my friend is how life
is, and now my tale is told.
So, enjoy each day and
live it up...


Before you're too damned
old!
