DJ AM

.
DJ AM was found dead in his apartment this last past Friday in New York.

The dude just survived a place crash earlier this year, and now shit like this happens. Really too bad. I was really just getting into his stuff over the past couple months, especially his Fix Your Face work with Travis Barker.

Guy was really good at what he did. Check out this vid of Fix Your Face.

2 Cents

I had a thought bubble in my head just now and I needed somewhere to put it... I didn't deem it appropriate for Twitter/Facebook so I opted for this old chestnut...

It was about Muscle Cars vs. Exotics/Tuners.

I am not a huge fan of old muscle cars. I think some are awesome, and I acknowledge their power, but I would take a hand made Italian beauty any day over American Muscle... This being my stance, which I openly tell people when talking about cars, I get beaked a lot. People's responses vary from something half put together such as "they are overpriced pieces of plastic" to the less thought out "They suck..."

I usually just put it off and end the conversation because you are never gonna change peoples options... Especially mine.

But what I have never brought up in these talks is overall performance of the cars...

What can a big tuned up 1968 Dodge Charger with a 426 do? Go fast in a straight line...

What can a brand new 2010 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera with a V10 and 530 BHP do? Anything you tell it to...

My argument is that no matter how big your engine is, or how many aftermarket parts you install, you can't out preform one of these cars. It's just technology... and high performance cars have it! Old school cars are pure power (Some with A LOT of it) but just don't have the brains to back it up to make it well rounded. Some of these exotics have launch computers, and 4 wheel drive with race modes that gives each wheel optimum power around a corner... A " 'Cuda" has "real big tires"

With this brought up I get shot down with "Yeah, but it will kick my your ass in a drag!"

And the argument starts again... HAHA!

Whatever, to each his own I guess. Bikes smoke them all! With Street Wheelers last weekend in Lethbridge I have been in 3 or 4 of these arguments with guys (and girl) about what is better and wanted to put in my 2 cents about it.

Deadly tune from Death Cab. If you like their other music, I would assume you'll like this. If you're not a fan, I doubt this will make you one, but check it out either way.

Flickr Find

.

Came across this photographer while I was looking around on flickr. He has got a ton of great shots.

His name is Steve Ngo. He's an amateur photographer, but he clearly has a lot skill. Just thought I'd share it. Check some shots on his flickr or personal site.

Some of my favorites.

Scotty's Crash

.

A couple of my buddies were asking to see some pictures of Scott and his bike after I'd told them about his crash a few years back. So here are the ones I have.

This is the aftermath of hitting a deer on sport bike at about 200 Km/h. Luckily Scott walked away from this one! Believe me when I say it's pretty scary to ride up to what you think will be one of your friends dead on the highway. I watched the whole thing happen right in front of me.

New Gear!

.
Today I was up in Calgary and I got myself a bunch of new motorcycle gear! GW Cycle held a special sale today that was only open to Calgary Ground Pilots users that signed up for the sale. A buddy of mine told me about it, and we decided to head up early this morning.

We were third in line into the store, and I went to town!

Everything in the store was at least 25% off, and because I was already in the market for new gear, I was pumped!

I got my hands on new Alpinestars S-MX Plus Racing boots, Alpinestars RC-1 leather jacket, and Alpinestars Track leather pants!

I got a great deal on all the gear and I'm super happy with it! Can't wait to actually suit up and give it a try!

I already know what lid I want, as well as a nice pair of gauntlets! Maybe next payday...

Check them out!
