SUMMARY
This is the story of three mates who shipped there old Harley Davidson Panheads from Australia to California via plane. Travelling through some of the most picturesque and sometimes desolate terrain. All the while meeting new and old friends along the road. Keeping these old motorcycles rubber side up and running was a task in itself.
From the rolling hills of Hollywood, the sandy stretches of Pismo Beach, up through the coast of San Fransisco, down through the windy roads of Grimes Canyon, the desolate desert of Joshua tree to the beat up streets of Mexico, this is their journey!

Not to speak ill of the dead …. but … much like their Aussie travelogue ….. this is …
” Much Ado About Nothing ”
Seriously … how much of this self absorbed crap must we endure ?
Not to mention yet another example of YesterBaiting .
Its kind of funny that in a recent interview PdO made they claim that they ( snowflakes and hipster wanna be’s ) are giving us ( Boomers and those of us that take history and life seriously ) .. the finger
But the reality is … in order for that ‘ finger ‘ to have any meaning beyond airing out a digit … there needs to be some substance behind it . Some genuine meaning …. some depth beyond sticking a finger in the air
None of which exists
And that PdO etc … is what is lacking in these punks … any form of substance … meaning or depth .
Trying desperately to relive our lives … ..envy ( on their part ) being the key word here !
Not to mention … ZERO commitment on their part to any cause , person or entity … other than their own pathetic little self absorbed selves
And then they whine like little children when the likes of myself kick em square in their self absorbed posteriors … trying to TEACH them something …. rather than pander to their politically correct self absorption
Ahhh … that ole teaching wisdom coming to the fore once again ;
” When you pander to the lowest common denominator … the lowest common denominator only goes lower ”
So sorry PdO … much as I respects ya on many a topic … this aint one of them …
And I did and still do love the rest of that interview in question … which … like ” Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance ” 50th ….
I’s kind of surprised you aint promoting !
Hmm
BTW ; Wanna talk about a blatantly missed marketing opportunity ?
What does the main character in ” Zen and the …. ” … alter ego’s name … Phaedrus mean ?
In Greek … WOLF … and who do we know across the pond that should be jumping all over that … rather than chasing the BS they have been for the last couple of years ?
Well …. you know 😎
