We packed up camp on the French Broad River after about a week. We had a good time hanging out around Asheville. Its a funky little town, with a definite hipster-type appeal going on if thats your thing. Some of the restaurants we tried were outstanding, and there are all [...]

Not Your Average Rally – MAWMR Comes to Front Royal, VA

On June 26, 2017 By Jim Porrata
We had typed “Front Royal, VA” into Google Maps and set out from Gettysburg, PA on an overcast morning. All the rain gear was out and at the ready, however the sun slowly burned off the haze. Before too long, it turned into a beautiful sunny afternoon. We were making [...]

Road Side Repairs in Amish Country

On June 26, 2017 By Jim Porrata
There is never a dull moment when you are counting on 45 year old motorcycles to carry you hundreds upon hundreds of miles on a road trip. Its not that the bikes are unreliable, it’s just that things back in the day required a bit more tinkering to maintain than [...]

Vintage Honda Chopper: Dirk’s CB500Four

On June 18, 2017 By Jim Porrata
I know we are a little late filling you in on the details of the CB500 chopper that Daryl built, so I wanted to do a post to show off the finer details of his bad ass machine. I mentioned that he had rolled the old 1973 Honda CB500 out [...]

On June 5, 2017 By Jim Porrata
I’ve posted a few pictures of the 1971 CB750 I picked up this spring on the site and on instagram. I have been going through it piece by piece because the bike had not been on the road in quite a while. The old Honda has a pretty cool story [...]
