Max Schaaf and 4Q.. Pretty epic shit!

I used to skate, like waaay back when it was still uncool..
Gave it up when my body decided to land me closer to the 100 Kg mark and give me an inate ability to break bones falling of shit.
So gotta hand it to max, he combines the two passions pretty well, Love the bikes, understand the skating. But I doubt you would ever get my ass on a board again..

Watch the clip.

Oh, and for those of you that are wondering what "waaay back then" means.. I'd have to say late 80's to mid/late 90's.

Bye bye Buell



"Harley-Davidson Inc. said Thursday it will discontinue its Buell motorcycle brand and divest its recently acquired MV Agusta lineup as part of the company's long-term business strategy.

The news that Harley was dropping two lineups came as the struggling manufacturer also said that its third-quarter income fell 84% to $26.5 million, or 11 cents a share, from $166.5 million, or 71 cents a share a year ago.

The company had $1.12 billion in sales in the quarter, down 21% from $1.42 billion in the third quarter of 2008. Worldwide motorcycle sales at Harley dealers fell 21% during the third quarter compared with the same period in 2008. The company said it shipped 27% fewer motorcycles in the quarter.

In a news release, Harley said it would discontinue its Buell brand, based in East Troy, and divest the Italian MV Agusta brand. The Buell decision will result in the loss of about 80 manufacturing jobs in East Troy and about 100 salaried positions.

"The fact is we must focus both our effort and our investment on the Harley-Davidson brand, as we believe this provides an optimal path to sustained, meaningful long-term growth," CEO Keith Wandell said in the release."








RIP Buell...

Shame really, one of the few brands of sportbikes I could see myself riding..

Pleasant night..














First Tim brings me a couple of big ass cigars from his trip to the States..
(Bought them from a wrinkled up old guy in key west..)



























Then my Dad shows up with a couple of dark beers he bought in Denmark.
And we finished of the Coronas I had in the fridge.

On the whole a good night if you ask me.
