Cool connection...

Yes...! Been on vacation to France with the family again this year... Every stop at a petrol station is a hunt for cool sickle and car magazines... Here's a little harvest for this year...
The Freeway Special 'Choppers & Bobbers' makes me think about the time I got infected with the sickle virus... Must been around 1980/82, at that time Easyrides magazine looked like that as well...

(Man... we're getting old)

Gee...

Gee... what can I say...

It's been almost 20 years since I've opened my eyes to the beauty of this letter.

In graphic school, in typography lessons they learned us to open our eyes to the beauty of letters and typefaces. One of my favorites is the lower case g of the Garamond font/typeface. Beautifull roundings,

almost like the shape of a woman.

(I think the designer was a womanloving man...)

Cool mom...

Here's my mom in 1957 or 58...
Today it's her birthday, she turned 80...!!!
Eighty and still goning (less strong then she wants)! Bad hipjoints even after hip surgery (on one side) 5 years ago, daily in loads of pain... She also has to do the other side but hey what do you think... not after this succes experience... Hope she will stay a bit longer, as long as she can handle the pain...
Love you mom.

Cool pitstop...

"Jealousy is an emotion and typically refers to the negative thoughts and feelings of insecurity, fear, and anxiety over an anticipated loss of something that the person values, particularly in reference to a human connection."
Source: Wikipedia

People can react very strange when they are jealous. Specially on the road; jealous when one rides on his motorcycle between the lanes. Closing the gaps...?? Or riding very close behind you when you just overtook them (on the right hand side because they thought they own the fast lane...). Most of the tims it's Volvo and Audi drivers who can't control their feelings of insecurity and fear...

Ride safely...!!!

With honour and Respect...

Tomorrow early in the morning, it's 69 years ago paratroopers entered their skytrains, to fly to the beaches of occupied France and night jump into the into the unknown... 'Round seven in the morning the invasion started on the beaches of Normandy, a start to kick the german's asses and kick them back to germany...
Unfortunately it took almost a year to free Europe...
I think we should have a huge amount of honour and respect for these young men who fought for our freedom. Thousands lost their lives even before they had a foot on dry Frensh soil...

With honour & Respect...!!!

Cool and (un)True

I know I'll never grow up...!!!

Cool wharf...

On our family trip to Denmark we stayed in a  holiday home close to the beach... On our day of arrival I captured the top pica... Two days later I went back to capture some more pica's with different angles... Only to find out that someone had done some work to the landing place... They added some wood to the structure, making it ready for the new boating season...

Cool castle, part 1...

A week a go we went to Denmark and visited a castle. They had a big collection of firetrucks, cars, mopets, planes, helicopters and motorcycles as well...
Here is one for ya, they found in a shead and brought it back to life in a vew hours after 54 years...!!!

Cool day...

Ever since the start of the week, this day is on my mind... As every Friday evening, as the karate hour starts, the teacher will open the lesson with The Easybeats... "...Monday I have Friday on my mind..."
The funny thing: he can't sing ann he will be playing his air guitar...

Thank God it's friday...!!

Rogues MC Choppershow 2013, part two...

Here some interesting bikes for you guys... My fav is the red one with the flames and the Indian engine and the blue bobber style with the wide ass...

Rogues MC Choppershow 2013...

Last Sunday, Easter, it was freakin' cold outside, and we had some bloody snow aswell... But got on my Japanse Geisha and rode half an hour North...

Our annual non-offical sickle-season opener; the Rogues MC choppershow in Hoogwoud, the Netherlands. This year 'bobbers' was the theme... In my humble opinion, there were to little bobbers and to much colours...
And ofcourse that couldn't go without a fight. In the first song the rockabilly band played, right under my nose
[one meter in front of me -  trying to shoot a sickle for you guys], some Belgian angels tried to punch out the lights of a local colour...
Sofar for the relaxed atmosfere... Took my pictures and left. In the air was flying that this wouldn't be the only punches that were gonna fly...

This weeks Sunday Special winner...
More picas will follow of some interresting sickles...!!!

(more sickles, less colours next year I hope)

Rogies Chopper Show 2013, next Sunday...

It's freakin' cold outside, some snow fell this morning... Hoping Sunday it will be dry, snowless... You know where I will be...!!
