First of all let me say I think this is a good motorcycle riding video, but, unfortunately it could have been a lot better.
It looks like it was published in 2019, but the rider doesn’t say what year the big dog ridgeback is. (more…)
The sun cracks down on the Arizona desert, baking the endless expanse of ochre sand and gnarled cacti into a mirage-shimmering tableau.
In the distance, a low rumble grows, like thunder chewing on gravel. It’s not a storm, though—it’s the guttural roar of a pack of high-powered choppers, engines throbbing like iron hearts, bearing down on this desolate frontier. (more…)
There’s really nothing quite like a group of custom chopper motorcycles riding in the country on twisty roads. (more…)

Great music and great pictures. There’s really nothing quite like the freedom of writing your own custom motorcycle. I miss the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s so much! (more…)
Two Big Dog motorcycle k9 choppers Glendale Arizona bike night.
During the season, the Westgate Entertainment District in Glendale put on these bike nights on Thursdays, starting at 5 p.m.. This is a win-win situation because the bikers frequent all the restaurants and the district provides live music entertainment and security for the events. (more…)
There’s nothing like riding a good-looking Chopper through the countryside!
Sure, riding any type of motorcycle through open roads in the country is a great experience. But, riding a high-powered, cool looking chopper, it’s really a kick in the ass! How many real chopper riders think about those great rides on the open country roads during the winter off-season?

Here in the Arizona area there are many motorcycle rides.
But there’s quite a difference between a motorcycle ride and an exclusive Chopper ride. Sure, Choppers have their admirers and their detractors, but one thing’s for sure when a group of Choppers get together for a ride they attract a lot more attention and admiration from the General Public then a bunch of stock motorcycles.

The motor is a custom built S&S 111 Evo with Panhead style Rocker Covers.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
A chopper is a type of custom motorcycle which emerged in California in the late 1950s. The chopper is perhaps the most extreme of all custom styles, often using radically modified steering angles and lengthened forks for a stretched-out appearance. They can be built from an original motorcycle which is modified (“chopped”) or built from scratch. Some of the characteristic features of choppers are long front ends with extended forks often coupled with an increased rake angle, hardtail frames (frames without rear suspension), very tall “ape hanger” or very short “drag” handlebars, lengthened or stretched frames, and larger than stock front wheels. The “sissy bar”, a set of tubes that connect the rear fender with the frame, and which are often extended several feet high, is a signature feature on many choppers. (more…)
