Guts, Feathers and Tales from the Beaks of the Buzzards



    At the Bench * Down the Trail * Up the Wall * On the Range * From the E.R. * Around the Campfire...    
                   
Things that are way beyond the reach of your average breath mint.........



"Stovey" seconds "The University Wall" on the Squamish Chief in British Columbia. Grade V, 5.12d, A3     Steve Young leading, all 3 days on the wall.



Stovey squeezes the flipper on the 2007 Arctic Cat M8 up in Island Park, Idaho. 145 horsepower, fuel-injected nightmare with a
naughehyde volcanoe on the seat, a lump in the throat and a beak pulled so far back inside the helmet it makes your pants turn brown.



Stovey massaging the trigger on a donated Heckler & Koch (pronounced "Coke") MP5 9mm submachine-gun at Gunsite Academy. It was a reward for winning the class shoot-off during the last day of an advanced handgun course of instruction in the finer arts of gentlemanly defense. "Never Give Up"

If you don't have a Tugger, you are at a disadvantage!  Our Tuggers have been used at Erzberg, Paris-Dakar, Last Man Standing, 24 Hours of Glen Helen, the ISDE, Romaniacs, and by racers and trail riders all over the world.  The Tugger lift strap provides a convenient gripping point near the front or rear of your dirt bike. Most dirt bikes don't have a place to grab that won't toast your fingers or get your gloves all muddy. And sometimes you need to grab your bike in a hurry! No more groping for a place to grab—the Tugger is ready when you need it and stays out of the way when you don't. You will appreciate the Tugger™ on the trail when you need to maneuver it over a rock, around a tight switchback or get it out of a deep rut,and even just moving your bike around in the garage.   After riding with the Tugger™, you'll never want to ride without one again.  There are four styles of Tuggers available - download our application chart (Excel)  or application chart (.pdf file) to check which style you need.  Email us if you have questions.  Lost a part?  Check our our replacement parts page.

Mike and Kim have made a habit of traveling the world on adventure motorcycles. From the wilds of Alaska to the tip of South America, they've wandered along gravel and paved roads taking in all that they see and making it their mission to learn about the people of the world. On this adventure, they each rent BMW motorcycles in Spain to wander discover Europe for themselves. Traveling through Spain, France, Andorra, Switzerland and Italy, they travel over tiny single lane roads, over mountains and alongside raging rivers to visit tiny towns, meet the locals and take in some of the world's most spectacular scenery. With no planned route, they are free to wander and discover what different cultures are all about. Along the way, through their adventures they learn about the people of Europe and more than a little about themselves. Take the handlebars, push the starter button, shift into first gear and seize the the opportunity to wander with them. You don't know where you'll end up on this ride. By the time you have finished this journey, you will understand why the saying "Not All Wanderers Are Lost" is true. Come and join Mike and Kim and ride to adventure.
