It might be too wet and cold to be taking a long tour, but it’s not too early to have some tips in mind for one you might be planning when the weather warms up. We scoured the Internet and found a long list of 33 thanks to the American Motorcycle Association....

We interrupt what would have been naming another winner of our EatSleepRIDE promo to bring you this — pictures and specs from Arch Motorcycles, the Keanu Reeves project. While we weren’t able to talk to Keanu live or his business partner, long-time...

Our featured rider – Alex Crookes – lives in this area, and while this time of year may not be the best time to explore Ontario, that doesn’t mean you can’t plan ahead. We found this site that has a list of the top 10 routes in Ontario....

Tattoos and decals – they are a personal thing, but obviously one is way more permanent than the other. Thankfully, getting rid of a decal is far easier and cheaper than getting rid of ink. All you need is a hand held hair dryer…and patience. To be sure...

These guys reached out to us. So we checked them out, did some sleuthing, and are happy to say this one seems like keeper. Conveniently located in east Seattle between what they describe as the hospital and cemetery, Canterbury Ale House is a neighborhood pub serving...

It’s that time of year when the wish lists come out and the pocket books with them. More often than not, these lists are pretty predictable – new clothes, new bike bling, etc. But in the short time Asphalt & Dirt has been published, we’ve already come across some...

Hey, it’s now edging toward Christmas, so why not plan to go where some of the traditions started — like Christmas trees, St. Nick, and major gift giving. Well, maybe some minor gift giving. Although this time of year is not your best riding weather in...
