The Swastika and the chopper cult

Not only do bloggers blog, they read others blogs. I guess that is the point.
In doing so myself, I frequent a lot of blogs that do not much more than post cool pictures of bikes. Mainly choppers, specifically bobber style choppers, Jap. style bobbers, and Brat style bobbers.

Of these many sites, several pictures are posted that show Swastikas. Particularly what appears to be the Nazi Germany Swastika. So I have to ask myself, WTF? WTF is with the chopper cult and the Nazi Swastika?



This has been on my mind for quite some time. While going on the internet to find a picture to post, the first place I went was Wikipedia. There, I learned a ton more information is available on the history of the Swastika, and it was widely used prior to Nazi Germany taking it as their symbol.
As much as I love visiting and looking at these pictures, I still wonder why the chopper cult has latched onto the Nazi Germany symbol. Do they think it is cool? I think people sporting Swastikas look like prejudiced uneducated dumb fucks myself. What the Hell does it have to do with riding motorcycles anyway?



I just don't get it.

We never forget. We just move forward.

After the passing of our beloved Cy last November, our hears were heavy with grief and sorrow. We don't feel as though we have replaced Cy, but have filled the empty hole in our hearts and home that he left behind. We will always love and miss him dearly. We will never forget Cy. We just moved forward.

Meet the newest member of the Mr. Motorcycle family. We just adopted him this past Friday from the same rescue organization that we got Cy from, (R.A.G.O.M.) Retrieve a Golden Of Minnesota.


His name is Finn. He is 22 months young and has still got lots of puppy energy left in him.

My wife so eloquently describes him as the Master Destructor of indestructible dog toys.

I do believe some obedience training is in his very near future. (Monday 4-12-2010 for 6 weeks once a week to be exact.) He will do his training at Stone Mountain Pet Lodge with a professional and myself.

My family and I love him so much already.

Isn't he CUTE!
