At the end of last year, Bike Sheath sent us a cover for a 2012 Victory Cross Country. At the time, we’d just gotten two big rain storms in California and a drought, water rationing, and fines for overuse were just a twinkle in the governor’s eye. So we...

Back in ’08, a good friend of ours bought a Ninja 650 as his first bike. While we tried like hell to get him to do more than swap out the stock levers for a set of Pazzos, he kept it mostly stock. Then he sold it for a bigger bike…and, of course, to this...

Growing up in Colorado, I used to take my humble Honda CL360 as far and high as I could get it. Unfortunately, I never made it to the southwest end of the state, but every time I see pictures of what I missed, I wish I had. The San Juan Mountain Skyway is listed on...

If you decide to start and end this issue’s route in Durango, CO, we found more than a few places to chow down for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Brew pubs tend to be more biker friendly, so we settled on one of the first to catch our eye — the Carver Brewing...

Our Favorite Route this week takes you out on Hatteras Island in North Carolina. So you’re going to want to eat. Why not drop your kickstand in front the of the Wreck Tiki Bar? Offering mostly Panini sandwiches, quesadillas and an assortment of mixed food to go...

We’ve been so busy getting back on the road and testing new gear that we haven’t been able to do much to research new routes and trails. So we turned to our friends at EatSleepRide and found this out and back route of about 180 miles going from Virginia...

Several months ago, the folks at Cyron Lighting gave us an H4 Headlight LED Retrofit Kit to try out. We gave it to one of our Harley Riders who promptly put it on his friend’s wife’s bike. His friend was evidently too old school to want to give an LED a...

We freakin’ love this bike! While not a dual sport by any stretch, slap a bash plate on a Scrambler, and some heavier duty tires, and dirt roads here we come! We’ve seen some crazy mods done to these bikes, but they’re pretty cool as is. Our one...

Most bikers take pants for granted. Put on some jeans or maybe some leathers and you’re good to go. The guys who do track days up their game with a heavy duty onesie. But we just like to ride and are way more likely to drag a foot peg than a knee. So when we...

We’re spoiled in California and we admit it. You could never leave the state and still hit just about every kind of riding you can imagine. And since we’ve had the warmest and driest winter on record, that means this year you could ride just about...
