Dodging the Roadkill: Shots Fired
Clarksville, TN – I’ve been in marketing long enough to have seen some classic battles in my day. Ford vs. Chevy, Coke vs Pepsi, McDonald’s vs. the world.
I’ve written, produced, voiced, edited and everything else you can do to a commercial, so I tend to view them differently than most people. I enjoy very FEW commercials, because I can see or hear just how BAD they really are.
It’s a curse.
Seldom do I see one brand go after another brand so openly as a recent ad from Harley-Davidson, which read; “Honestly now, did you spend your youth dreaming of someday owning a Polaris?”

Dodging the Roadkill: The Sturgis Chronicles – Part 5
Clarksville, TN – It had been a long hot day for us when we landed in Rapid City. Black Hills Harley Davidson was an absolute CIRCUS! It was the first indication of the crowds that were to dominate the week at the rally.
I had become separated from my guys somewhere at the dealership and they were wanting to spend more time there than me, so I got back on my bike and punched up the address for the Iron Horse Inn.
I arrived at about 2:30 and even though the reservations weren’t in my name, I had proof of my payment so they allowed me to check in.

Dodging the Roadkill: The Sturgis Chronicles – Part 4
Clarksville, TN – We pulled out of Wall, South Dakota, having fed our bellies and paid a visit to the Harley Shop, getting ever closer to our destination of Sturgis, and the 79th edition of the annual rally.
I was still trying to comprehend all that I had seen since I crossed the border into this wide open expanse known as the Dakotas. Navigating the Badlands, then passing through this historic tourist attraction was causing me to process all that I would write about, hoping I could bring the experience to words.
My crew was equally as anxious about reaching our destination, so it was back onto I-90 to compete with the other bikers who refused to do the 80mph speed limit.

Dodging the Roadkill: T-Minus Two Weeks
Clarksville, TN – Two weeks from today, me and my crew will hit the road for the 2019 Sturgis Rally. I’ve never been to that part of the country, much less the biggest motorcycle rally in the country, so you can imagine my excitement!
It’s a “bucket list” item.
I committed to joining three other brothers on this trip last year, and I’ve been counting down the days ever since. I’m mostly going for the amazing riding opportunities, but I can’t wait to soak it all in.
There WAS a time in my life when I was more excited about the late nights, the bars, the concerts, and “mixing” with others, but at this stage of my life, I’ll be lucky to stay up late enough to see the sun go down!

Dodging the Roadkill: What Does It Matter?
Clarksville, TN – When I decided that I was going to buy a motorcycle, I was ALWAYS going to buy a Harley Davidson. I’m not paid to say that, it’s just what I wanted to do.
Since then, I’ve ridden Hondas, Indians, Victory’s and a Triumph. I would LOVE to ride a BMW, but I haven’t had the opportunity.
Since I got started late in life, I wanted the Harley experience first. I’m on my third one.
In the meantime, it doesn’t make me any difference what YOU ride. I have two great friends that I travel with and they’re Goldwingers. It’s an AMAZING machine, but it doesn’t fit me.

Dodging the Roadkill: The People I Meet
Clarksville, TN – When I started this journey three years ago, the first thing I noticed about being a biker was the people I would meet. As you know, the motorcycle is a magnet for attention. There’s something about it that draws the attention of everybody.
As I would stop for gas, or take a break for something to eat, everybody had a motorcycle story. It was and continues to be the best conversation starter on the planet.
I’m known for taking “selfies” with the people I meet on the road, and emphasizing how “I love the people I meet on this bike.” Coming out of a career in broadcasting where everybody was selfish and superficial, it’s been so refreshing to meet real down to earth “genuine” people.

Dodging the Roadkill: Middle Of The Road
Clarksville, TN – There are many dangers we face as bikers. Since we’re subjected to all of the elements, we take every precaution to protect ourselves.
Wearing the proper riding gear, headgear, and having a motorcycle that’s running at peak performance are just a few of the things we all do to insure the safest riding experience.
But what lies in the middle of the road could be the most dangerous thing we encounter.
In the three short years I’ve been on this journey, I’ve seen my fair share of interesting things in the middle of the road. Obviously, roadkill of all varieties is pretty common. Skunks, deer, dogs, cats, and even an armadillo or two are not uncommon for most bikers. Huge pieces of rubber are also fairly common, and they’re hard to see at night.
