This baby is the latest addition to my collection of motorcycle gear. Actually it's my second piece, the first being my Vega Helmet.
The Vega Helmet
People do think that I'm being over protective or just too 'paranoid' investing my time & money in safety gear & keeping my bike in shape. These people for one, do not know what I went through when an A**HOLE rammed his car into me.
A**HOLE's Car. Yes I had enough adrenaline in me to limp right up to it & click a pic.
This baby's next on my list. Sweet sweet stuff this one :)
Looks cool & am sure feels even better! Am getting one for me AND my girl. Will post detailed review on the gloves & the jacket (once i get it) soon. Ride safe till then.
Sports cars have dazzled & caught our imagination over the ages. Movies to magazines, we’ve swallowed them whole in the pursuit of these dream machines. Porsche’s, Lamborghini’s, Ferrari’s. They’re all here.
Bruce, known as the 'Boss' has a few rolling hits to his name. But the reason he's the boss in my book is simple, he's a revolutionary in every sense of the word. every word in his mighty verses stand tall & take note, making the world around them shiver in awe & in recognition. This is just one of his songs. It's called 41 Shots (41 Shots) & this is the history behind it.
What started this song off was an act of violence. Amadou Diallo, an american-african immigrant
in the US of A was shot by police officers who thought he was peddling drugs & was weilding a weapon which he was about to use. Now this could be a regular occurrence to many but this case was different. Diallo was shot 41 times... all for reaching out for his wallet. The police found no weapons on him. Justice... ? Makes you wonder...
Here's the boss.
Lyrics: 41 shots 41 shots 41 shots 41 shots 41 shots 41 shots 41 shots 41 shots.... and we'll take that ride 'cross this bloody river to the other side 41 shots... cut through the night You're kneeling over his body in the vestibule Praying for his life
Is it a gun, is it a knife Is it a wallet, this is your life It ain't no secret (It ain't no secret) It ain't no secret (It ain't no secret) No secret my friend You can get killed just for living in Your American skin
41 shots 41 shots 41 shots 41 shots 41 shots and Lena gets her son ready for school She says "on these streets, Charles You've got to understand the rules If an officer stops you Promise me you'll always be polite, that you'll never ever run away Promise Mama you'll keep your hands in sight"
Is it a gun, is it a knife Is it a wallet, this is your life It ain't no secret It ain't no secret No secret my friend You can get killed just for living in Your American skin
41 shots 41 shots 41 shots 41 shots (music bit) 41 shots 41 shots 41 shots 41 shots Is it a gun, is it a knife Is it in your heart, is it in your eyes It ain't no secret (It ain't no secret) It ain't no secret (It ain't no secret) It ain't no secret (It ain't no secret)
41 shots And we'll take that ride Cross this bloody river To the other side 41 shots And my boots caked in this mud We're baptized in these waters (baptized in these waters) And in each other's blood (And in each others blood)
Is it a gun, is it a knife Is it a wallet, this is your life It ain't no secret It ain't no secret (It ain't no secret) It ain't no secret (It ain't no secret) No secret my friend You can get killed just for living in You can get killed just for living in You can get killed just for living in You can get killed just for living in You can get killed just for living in Your American Skin
