2010 Kuwait Bike Show
I went to the 2010 Kuwait Bike Show on Friday…it was a well organized event with HOG Chapters from all around the gulf especially Bahrain and KSA, the weather was bad but it seamed that the crowd did not mind it…custom bikes builders from Bahrain participated with some really cool bikes, there was also a couple of local bikes that were also nice.

The massacre of the Suzuki brothers
A friend of mine got the new BMW S1000RR for a day to test ride it, we went out around 10am Friday and enjoyed the usual Friday morning ride …then we meet up with some friends for coffee, one had a Hayabusa and the other had a GSX-R 1000, of-course the usual debate starts and we end up racing the BMW against the Hayabusa and its little brother the GSX-R1000.
