I would like to extend a special welcome to a new sponsor here at Road Captain USA. We have recently partnered with AutoAnything.com just in time for your holiday shopping. You can view their tower advertisement on my sidebar. They have great cleaning products and other things that cross over from the automotive world to our two wheel world like this Air Force Blaster Sidekick Car & Motorcycle Dryer. Put that on my wish list!
Can you follow this strange chain of events? I see an advertisement on Facebook for an Internet based motorcycle accessory company called RevZilla whose headquarters and only showroom is less than an hour north of us in South Philly. I zip over there one day after a training seminar in the city of Brotherly Love to check it out. I chat with Matt Kull and take some pictures. RevZilla becomes a paid advertiser on RC USA. I decide to check out Helmet Hair Blog to see what’s new over there. Helmet Hair Blog was one of my inspirations to create my blog. I see a video made by the guys at RevZilla over at the Helmet Hair Blog which is based in Denmark. Cool to see these young South Philly guys get recognition by an international motorcycle blog from abroad.
Revzilla is the creation of several young entrepreneurs who love motorcycles, offer superior customer service, carry the best of the best in motorcycle safety gear and have fantastic Internet skills. Cruisers who are still into black leather may not be in the market for an $800 Gore-Tex riding suite with built in CE approved armor but you have to appreciate the fine gear like the Rev It line and you also gotta give these guys props for the video product reviews. These guys are like my new hero’s. I ‘ll try to find out more about them and post here at RC USA.
Billy is a UK based artist who does detailed drawings related to dancing and motorcycles… strange combination. Of interest to us is the limited edition print of a pair of Harley-Davidson Knuckleheads. It takes Billy an hour to draw one inch of detail. The print is of a 1946 and a 1947 Harley Knucklehead and is titled ‘A Pair of Knuckleheads’. Each of the 250 limited edition 16″ x 12″ prints are $35 including free shipping from England. Billy will give away the original pencil art worth $1600 to one of the print buyers when the edition sells out. I think I’m going to buy one just to get a chance at winning the orginal. 1 out of 250 is a pretty good chance of winning this valuable artwork.

Motorcyclists come in all different shapes, sizes, colors, and creeds. There are men and women, young and old. There are those who were born into a motorcycling family, and those who came upon it on thier own. One might say that Harley owners all have lots of “disposable income” in order to be able to afford such an expensive luxury, but I have met many a biker for whom that is completely not the case. A motorcyclist is a motorcyclist deep in the soul, and when that is the case they will make whatever sacrifices are needed in order to feed the need to have their knees in the breeze.
Right here in our moto-blogger community it is evident that motorcyclists come from all different levels of education and many kinds of occupations, such as those listed below:

If I was a single guy the first $9.95 I made each month would go toward a membership at FastDates.com where members have access to the most beautiful calendar pin up models in the world. Fast Dates publishes the famous Iron & Lace, Fast Dates and Garage Girls calendars.
Fast Dates is the brain child of Jim Gianatsis and Gianatsis Design Associates. Although Gianatsis Design offers a slew of marketing services the specialty is definitely motorcycle pin up girl calendars of the highest quality. The FastDates.com Calendar Kittens are some of the world’s most beautiful celebrity models, actresses, beauty pageant winners, centerfolds and adult film stars who have also appeared in Maxim, GQ, Playboy, Penthouse and Perfect 10 magazines.

With your Fast Dates membership you also get access to the Paddock Garage for sportbike and American V-Twin tuning and suspension tips from top builders and factory race teams.

In Paddock Garage, Jim explains the theory of bike handling, suspension tuning, and engine performance modifications. He shows you how to correct any shortcomings or problems with a particular sportbike, and gives you the best ways to improve them. That’s boring… let’s get back to the half naked hot babes posing with outrageous customs.
