Gophers and Cheese

When it comes to blogging, I am perpetually behind.  Merry (Belated) Christmas!!! The blog's not dead... yet.  I have a ridiculous amount of photos from 2015 that I still want to post so I suppose that's one thing a Minnesota winter is good for.  The other thing it's good for is bike building. For anyone reading this, get to work on your winter projects because I want to see some mind-blowing stuff in 2016.  This means you Scott, Shrek, Eric, Charlie, Todd, Rachel, and everyone else busy in their garage posting progress pics on Instagram.  2015 was the year of the Sportster and 2016 is shaping up to be a repeat.  It's going to be a great year!

Time is flying by.  I still have so many events from 2014 to edit & post and 2015 is right around the corner!  I wasn't going to do any projects on the Sportster this winter but I have a few small things (and maybe one big thing) I'll tackle.  I can't wait to get back out on the road and maybe plan a moto-journey or two.  Part of me wants to get back out to Sturgis for the 75th but part of me would much rather find an empty road or two I've never been down before.  I'd like to get out to Mama Tried this year but we'll see.  Too many great options to choose from is a good problem to have. I hope you have a Merry Christmas.  As always, thanks for visiting!

Prices in the store go back up after Christmas so you'd better stock up now.  At this point, you won't get the stuff in time to give as gifts but we all know you're buying these things for yourself anyway.  Stickers are on sale for $1 and T-shirts are on sale for $10, both 33% off (details below).

I've been really busy with the newborn lately so posting has not been a priority.  Sleeping when I can has been a priority.  Here are the kids with Santa at the local dealership. I'll get around to posting Bearded Lady pics sometime soon (a welcome taste of summer in the middle of winter) and I plan to redo my rear fender before Spring so there will pictures of that too.  Hope you and your families have a Merry Christmas!  As always, thanks for visiting!

I hope you have a Merry Christmas and I look forward to getting back to posting on a more regular basis in 2013.  I still have tons of content from 2012 to post.  At the moment, my bikes are hibernating in the garage but don't worry... Spring will be here before you know it.

I mentioned in my last post that I had a few FREE GIFTS for some lucky readers... Check out my last post for how to enter to win a free ticket to the 2012 Progressive International Motorcycle Show in Minneapolis, MN (Feb 3-5, 2012). I also have TWO FREE COPIES of SHOW CLASS MAGAZINE: ISSUE #3 to give away. The U.S. Postal Service apparently screwed the good people at Show Class Magazine over.  I am a subscriber to Show Class Magazine and they mailed me an extra copy of Issue Three because the first one they sent got lost in the mail.  They did this for a bunch of people because the Post Office seemed to misplace an entire batch of issues.  When that copy also seemed to get lost in the mail, they sent me a third copy with no questions and no hassle, all at their expense.  Soon after they mailed me the third copy, all three copies FINALLY showed up.  The guys over at Show Class are awesome and, to keep the good karma flowing, I am passing my two ext...

Christmas is right around the corner and Gophers and Cheese is playing the part of Santa with a few FREE GIFTS for some very lucky readers. The first is a FREE TICKET to the 2012 Progressive International Motorcycle Show in Minneapolis, MN (Feb 3-5, 2012).  I have attended this event over the past five years and it's always been fun. It's also a great escape from the bitter cold and a chance to check out the latest bikes & gear from the big manufacturers as well as some interesting customs. <img src='http://pixel.quantserve.com/pixel/p-f4QCdDOj56EYA.gif' style='display: none;' border='0' height='1' width='1' alt='Quantcast' /> THE HOLIDAYS CAN BE REALLY TOUGH...
