Under our Helmet

Diary of a Virgin Motorcycle Mechanic

For those of you who followed the journal of Helmet Hair editor, Cara Mae, as she chronicled her attempt at combining two Honda Rebels to produce one reliable ride, we are happy to announce that after a long hiatus, Cara Mae has made the final turn around the corner of her wrenching journey. Check out her Diary entry in the upcoming April 2006 issue. And look for her newest journal: “What to do when stranded on the side of the road” … just kidding Cara Mae.

Stupid Girls

So we attended the South Texas International Motorcycle Show yesterday and while in a deep discussion about the Asian-themed airbrush job on his Suzuki Hayabusa, this gentleman stopped in mid sentence of our conversation to engage in matters of greater importance: the two scantly-clad models waiting to climb on his bike so they could be showered with flashbulbs. Which brings us to today’s rant: why are some girls so stupid? Twiddle Dee and Twiddle Dumb struck every pose imaginable on that mighty Suzuki -  all but the one its seat was originally intended.  Not sure why it struck such an evil cord with us. After all, we know that’s what to expect at every rally and show across this nation, but that won’t stop us from secretly plotting to destroy the stupid girl image. In the meantime, watch this video from Pink for some nanny nanny boo boo inspiration. (Insert mad laughter here)
