Conquering the soul !
A couple of years back when BMW launched the S1000RR no one expected that this bike will dominate the super bikes for that long, the RR is still by far the most powerful production bike on the market its even much more powerful than some 1300cc bikes. But for riders with a twin engine fetish, you’ll need much more than horse power to capture their attention, you need a bike with soul, a bike with a character, a bike with a history, a bike that makes riders reminisce.
I guess BMW doesn’t need me to tell them this, they were smart enough to figure it out them self’s. So they decided to recreate the BMW R 90 S and because they have a lot of money they didn’t bother going back to the drawing boards, they decided to ride on someones else back, someone rebellious, someone that can put some soul in the dead long dead R90S.

“Apples”
An art exhibition is taking place today and thru March 14th at the Marina Hotel, five arab females will be displaying their work in celebration of the “wondrous multifaceted role played by women in the world today ” ….whatever that is.
I like the name they chose for the exhibition, if it wasn’t for that apple i would have been blogging from haven right now.
So if you are a feminist make sure you check them out -the art pieces, not the artistes.

Pop Art
I just found out that one of my colleagues is a Pop Art artist…i was showing him some photos of a ride with friends when he said that he wants to show me something and asked me to email him a couple photos.
The next day he came with the above, its all done digitally using his Mac and not using any filters or ready made effects of course, the nice thing is that you can print it on any material of any size.
He is working on a local collection which i will post once its ready.
