Too many great things to do down here in the Delmarva region. This weekend will be the inaugural Mike’s Famous Biker Weekend at Mike’s Famous Harley-Davidson in New Castle, DE. July 16, 17 and 18. Too many things at this event to tell you about but this is going to put Delaware on the biker map. Click the above advertisement for more information. If you have never been to Delaware and want to do something new this weekend… come on down!
If you are looking for an excuse to head to the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia I have a good one for you. If I wasn’t going to the above event I would definitely be going to the Fox Creek Leather Customer Appreciation Party on the 17th.

Holy road tar Batman I married Super Woman! It seems like just a few months ago I was teaching Diana how to ride a motorcycle in a school parking lot in Baltimore. Turns out that was 5 years ago. She has been a dedicated student of motorcycling ever since. She soaks up knowledge like a sponge… as long as it doesn’t come from her husband. Most say that she rides better than me. I say she rides better than most. On top of that she does an excellent job of navigating, mapping and creating great rides. When asked why we should ride through two hours of rain to get to a bike rally she responds with “because that’s what we do!”. So I guess it is only natural that she was patched tonight as an offical HOG Road Captain in First State Chapter. Congratulations Princess, I’ll follow you anywhere!

Recently Walt Kuch aka Big Poppa and Caroline Fellman took on the challenge of bringing Fast Lane Biker Magazine to Delmarva. This is a full color print magazine focussed on the local motorcycle community in Delmarva. For for those of you not familiar with that name, that is what we call the Delaware, Maryland and Virginia peninsula of the Chesapeake Bay. The magazine is free and can be picked up at businesses that support and advertise with Fast Lane Biker. I picked up the April issue, which was the first issue, while sitting in the lounge at Mike’s Famous Harley-Davidson of Smyrna, DE. I was intrigued about Walt and Caroline’s story. It seemed they have alot in common with me and Diana. Caroline is the Editor/Publisher and Walt is the Marketing Director. Their magazine features hot biker babes, pictorials and stories with a regional flair that promotes the Delmarva region. This is our our region and I thought that Diana and I should write for this magazine.
I reached out to Walt and told him about what Diana and I have been up to and let him know we would be interested in helping him grow his new upstart magazine. We met with Walt and Caroline yesterday while they were dropping off bundles of the July issue at local businesses. We agreed to write monthly articles for FLB Delmarva. We also plan on selling advertising for the magazine as well.
Diana will have a feature column every month writing about riding from the women’s perspective. We are both excited about our writing moving from the cyber world to a legit ink and paper magazine. We are also in on a ground floor opportunity. So far there have only been four issues printed. Look for us in the fifth issue! We’ll probably be going to Gettysburg Bike Week to cover the event for the August issue.
