    Does your bike have a nickname? Its my green machine!

    How long have you been riding? I have been street riding for 7 years

    and just started track days in 2010. My husband and I have 5 kids; so

    riding is off and on, depending on the kids schedule. We would go

    out for a ride, and have no place in mind to go, but being out there is

    so much better than sitting in a car driving.

    How you got started riding bikes? I was a passenger for a few years

    before actually getting on a bike myself. One day while riding as a

    passenger I realized that if anything should happen, I have no control

    what so everIm just along for the ride. The next day I signed up for

    MSF course and received my license about a week later.

    What bikes do you own? I currently own a green 2005 Kawasaki

    zx636 with custom Two Brothers Twilight twin under tail exhaustand custom lime green LEDs.

    Favorite riding spot? My favorite riding spot right now is on the track

    at Streets of Willow Springs. Especially since they have re-paved the

    track, its smoother and tires just stick to the track, so I can push myself

    further. I love the tight turns and the technicality of it.

    Do you ride your bike around town?Yes, we ride to local bike nights,

    Cantina Lounge in Fullerton on Wednesdays and Friscos in City of

    Industry on Thursdays. We have a few friends that we cruise around

    with every now and again. Riding around town is a great stress re-

    liever after a long day/week.

    What kind of looks do you get when people see you riding?I get a lot

    of surprised looks when they see me riding. Sometimes people will

    roll down their window at a stoplight to tell me that its good to see

    women riding more.

    What is your favorite Motorcycle?My favorite bike is my own. I love

    the twin under tail and the performance of the bike. The 2005 zx636

    is the fastest 600 that Kawasaki has made to date, so performance can

    only get better from here on out. I love the aggressive body position-

    ing.

    Funniest riding moment?My funniest riding moment was coming

    home from bike night with the guys. We had split trafc to the red

    light and was waiting for it to change. Right when the other light

    turned yellow, CJ hit my kill switch and turned my key off before tak-

    ing off. Im sitting there trying to nd neutral to turn the bike back on

    and take off with cars and the rest of the bikes behind me. You can call

    that my most embarrassing moment too!

    Scariest riding moment?My scariest riding moment was at SOW,

    my second track day, July 2010. In my attempt to catch and pass my

    husband on the front straightaway, I forgot to lean right for turn 1 and

    I went right over the top of the ledge into the dirt. I was so focused

    on passing him, I lost focus of where the track was going. Luckily,

    I saved the bike from falling by dragging my feet, but I came to a

    sudden stop and didnt pull the clutch and it stalled out in gear. I had

    to walk back to the top of the ledge to tell the ag guy because no one

    saw me go off the track. I was so scared that I was going to lose it and

    my geen machine would be wrecked. Ive seen people crash and break

    bones and I did not want to experience rst hand what that feels like.

    Canyons or highway?Both. We ride canyons when we have a free day

    and a sitter for the kids. Highways mainly when we ride to an event

    like moto gp or AMAs. We also do Toyride, a 60 mile Freeway char-

    ity ride every year in November. (see toyride.org for info)

    Do you ride track? We just started riding track this year and its

    awesome. We rode at Streets of Willow twice this summer and Im ad-

    dicted. Its a great place to open up the bike and not worry about cars

    or cops. You can push yourself as far as you want. I drug my knee on

    my second track day, it was such an awesome feeling, I came off the

    track and was jumping around with excitement.

    Who is your favorite racer?My favorite racer is Roger Lee Hayden

    of WSBK. I followed him through AMAs and wild card for Moto

    Gp. His AMA pit crew knows me on a rst name basis and they are

    awesome people. When Tommy Hayden was riding with him in 2005,

    I received his windscreen off his race bike after AMA race in Fontana,

    CA. Then to have Tommy Hayden sign it, was icing on the cake. Even

    though the windscreen would t my Green Machine, I would cry if

    it got stolen at bike night. I have it hanging in the garage next to my

    Kawasaki banners.

    What is the future plans for the shop?We continually strive to carry

    the products in stock that our customers are requesting. I am planning

    on bringing in a Womens line of leathers, boots, and gloves. As a

    woman, its hard to nd variety and/or the size that you are looking

    for. Our dream is to expand and be a dealer for bikes and host a bike

    night.

    weet not sour, the rst look makes your mouth water like eating a candy apple Jolly Rancher. This Los Angeles

    native who grew up in the City o Commerce, Jesus Rendon built this sweet candy apple Green Harley out o his

    Garage with a little help orm his twin brother Ruben. He rst started out riding a 2005 Suzuki GSXR 750 that

    he customized. He elt he was getting a bit crazy on it so he thought he would trade it in or a Harley. Ironically

    he had a very bad accident on the Harley. While in the hospital he was going to give up riding, but he soon

    elt that he get back on the bike and ride. This Santa Monica car dealership automotive technician who started

    out building lowrider cars (as you can tell by the beautiul detail) Jesus bought a basic Harley Davidson rode it

    home took it apart to start the transorming it into a beautiul show bike. He elt he can handle it so he picked

    up a manuel or torque specs and went at it. He did all the Disassembling himsel ater work and on the weekends in his spare time

    His twin brother did the paint in his garage. They painted the bike not once but twice cause he didnt like the rst color. Wanting it to

    really pop so they went with two dierent candy apple green shades with two dierent fakes. Now to top it o he took it to Edga

    rom Maxima Imagen or the silver lea. Jesus went all out with one o rims with a staggered tment, etched cylinders, custom ai

    lter, and chrome everything down to every bolt. This LA native really shows the true lowrider culture.

    All young men want to join the circus. Well at age o ten Ryan rode his

    rst motorcycle and the passion began or two-wheeled machines. He

    watched his cousins ride and they taught him. Ryan lived in the city and

    he began to dream about owning a street bike. He worked his way rom

    his rst ride on a 1995 Yamaha 400 dirt bike to a 1999 Honda CBR 600. The

    dream came true, now he began to want a bike that was like no other. The

    Honda was a good start on learning the basics o customizing and riding.

    Soon he purchased his GSXR and it was on. At rst it started out as mayhem

    buying parts here and there. He went on ebay and bought part ater part,

    but when they came some that said chrome were just polished and it didnt

    look correct. So back to the drawing board he went. Ryan took the gsxr

    apart and chromed everything. Now it was on to the paint. First mayhem

    got a sick wrap and it was time to show it o. Ater attending a ew shows

    he elt it was time to take it to that next level. Ryan had become riends

    with Tony Sesto, a master builder that has created works o art. Tony put his

    hands on Mayhem and with that Circus Mayhem came about. A beautiul

    white paint job some fake and top shel airbrushing gave the gsxr that

    push it needed or the next level. Still not satised and always wanting to

    go orward we might see Circus mayhem going back to tony or a little 240

    makeover. Look or this beauty at a show taking top honors or at a bike

    night in So Cal.

    Hotel.

    The next day began with the Flatland Freestyle Cham-pionship presented by Stunt Farm held in a 328x100surface area. This entire event consisted of multiplevendors and a Bike Show-Off judged by Cycle Path

    Street BikesN.Y.C.While searching for the midtown tunnel on my vacation in New York, I stumbled across a local bikeshop. As I walked into the shop I notice gorgeous stretched street bikes with massive monster reartires. And after seeing these bikes I had to write about and share these pieces of art with everyone.So I asked to talk with the owner and get his story. The name of the shop is called StreetBike NYC and theowner is John and his story starts with his passion for motorcycles and riding them on the open road. John

    started out in a small garage building bikes for himself in 1991. But fueled by his big ideas and competitive

    drive john started StreetBike NYC. The man was on a mission from day one to rewrite the book on customstreet bike on the east coast. John always had ideas to do what hasnt been done, from the custom build-

    ing the exotic paint jobs. Johns bike builds are purely amazing he takes the blank canvas and brings out thetrue potential with the stretched out swing arm and massive rear tires. When asked. John stated the longeststretch he has done on a bike was 20 inches. That would be the longest stretch hes done so far. He alsowent on to say that the largest tire he has put on a bike is a 360 because it was a legitimate size and comfort-

    able to ride. These guys ride their bikes hard and fast so comfort is a must. Unlike Southern California ourfamily on the East stretch and big tire everything. John commented that we take these bikes on the highway,track, or mountain roads and rip them up. Tire size/stretch, no problem.

    They do work mostly with street bikes but also have had the opportunity to build some choppers and Harleys.With Johns constant thirst to one up every bike hes built lead him to his current project witch he only de-scribes a Hayabusa with a crazy set up, that comes from

    a ma whos denition of crazy is at a whole other level.So I look forward to seeing that project in the near future.What else is in the future for StreetBike NYC? MaybeJohns Diamond Bike idea with 150,000 handset diamondson a street bike. What the future will hold for StreeBike

    NYC is that they will continue to crank out bikes that speakfor themselves as art and machine.

    1 What is the biggest tire you have applied to one of your builds? The biggest tire i have put on a bike

    was a 360 because it is a legitimate size and still a very enjoyable ride.2 What is the longest stretch? 20 long is my longest stretch on a bike so far.3 Do you build choppers or incorporated a chopper/street bike mix? Indeed weve built street bikesmixed with the chopper avor and the results were amazing .4 What or where do your inspirations come from? I am a very competitive person and very passion-ate about motorcycles . I have been inspired by the love of ridding and i always wanted to top myselfby building amazing looking bikes that you could also enjoy ridding. Always wanted to do somethingcompletely different that will stand out anywhere.

    5 What is the bike scene like in New York and how does it differ from California? Judging from televi-sion, NYC is portrayed as a street ghter type and not too much custom big tire bikes. In my opinionafter visiting California and thinking of opening a shop out there, in New York there are denitely muchmore beautiful bikes, custom work not just for the looks. A lot of street ghters as well , as we know adifferent culture. I wasnt drawn to California and building there, we are a very well known shop herein N.Y and denitely more inspiration comes from here.6 What is the most expensive bike you have ever built? Most expensive bike ever built by me was100.000 dollars.7 In the auto world, there is a two million dollar custom car, would you ever think of building of bike of

    this caliber for the motorcycle industry?Diamond Bike. A million dollar bike. That was my idea as faras a most expensive custom bike ever built . 150.000 hand set stones . Being in the jewelery industry

    in the past and very good with my hands as a skill that was and still is something that i would like todo. Unfortunately not enough sponsors yet.8 What is the fastest bike you built and how fast was it?Upgrades were done on the bikes i havebuilt but our thing is building the nicest sexiest bikes out there.9 Have you done any work for celebrities? We have built a bike for the president of A Life Companyhere in New York.

    10 Favorite built and why? We take pride in building these bikes and everyday we enjoy doing it.11 What do you see in the future of bike building to take it to the next level? to expand and keep do-ing quality work , work that speaks volumes , work that very few have seen and that stands out in thecrowd.

    road toys. For family and friends the dunes are a fun weekend escape from the stresses of life. Fora family, the safer spots to camp at would be the washes. But if you are looking to camp closer tothe big sand dune gecko road is the spot is that campsite for you.

    But what does it take to spend a weekend at Glamis? Well for starters you need a four-wheel

    drive vehicle to drive through the sand because without four-wheel drive you are most likely to getstuck. Next youll need a place to sleep so you can choose from camping in a tent or a trailer. Thirdon your list would be supplies such as food, drinks, and clothing for as long as your trip will last.Be sure to pack cloths to how the weather will be so before going check the weather forecast. Also

    you will need to pack tools, and uids for your vehicles. You will also need rewood to keep warm

    at night a BBQ to grill up some food, a generator for power and depending on the way you ride
