It's over (but not really). Octoparty/Big Burn on the books

Labor Day is just about kaput and at midnight tonight, the official summer season comes to close. But that don't mean shit to us as we view fall as the best time to ride, never mind  all that waning daylight business. Anywhooo, Fall also marks the return of the annual Octoparty/Big Burn event. It is set for 6:30 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 7. However, this year will mark a venue change as it will be held at Paul Sr.'s Winbeam Farm in Wisconsin. (Simply put, I want to take a break from hosting this year.). Don't despair, there will still be a large burning of a moto-inspired sculpture which will be built soonish. BYOB and bring some food to pass.

North Shore Shindig coming up

Adventure riding mojo in the Arrowhead of Minnesota, Sept. 14-17. HQ is at the Wildhurst Campground in Finland, MN. Miles and miles of gravel, fireroads, single track, all kinds of back-woodsie riding. This will be our third year going up and it never fails to disappoint.

It's getting tough out there

And distracted drivers keep growing by the thousands. A good piece submitted by Our Man In the Field. Be careful out there: the world is filled with idiots.
