Custom California Motorcycle Show

Custom California Motorcycle Show

Easyriders motorcycle show, Jan. 2015 in Long Beach California:

This is the forth video in our series covering the January 2015 LA, custom motorcycle show. When I was at the show this year it seemed that there were far fewer in attendance than last year. I attribute this lower attendance to the fact that on the day of the show. There was light to moderate rain throughout the Southern California region. Because a lot of Southern California bikers like to ride their bikes over to the show, I think the weather hurt the attendance. (more…)

Arizona Motorcycle Ride – Footnote

2007 American Ironhorse Texas Chopper Arizona Motorcycle Ride

2007 American Ironhorse Texas Chopper

This is a footnote to my 1-9-15 post about my Texas Chopper ride from the Phoenix Arizona area to San Diego:

When I was in Gilbert, Arizona, I noticed that the regular gas price was substantially cheaper than what it was that morning in San Diego. Now, because I go to Arizona quite often, I know this is always the case. Once you cross over the Colorado River the gas price usually drops by $. 30 or $.40 a gallon. This is due mainly to the high California state taxes and fees that are levied on every gallon of gas.

But in Chandler, Arizona we ran into a number of gas stations selling regular gas around a 1.91 per gallon. That morning at one of my San Diego neighborhood competitive gas stations the best price was $2.59. (more…)
