When Times Are Tough

There are times in our life when our bikes might break, and we just don’t have the cash we need to fix them. Then there are times when you might need a new piece of safety gear to ride safely, but you just don’t have the cash to pick it up. Those are the times when some of us might turn to payday loans, but how to do you know you’re choosing a company you can trust? There’s a new option out there via a website called christianfaithfinancial. If anyone’s going to give you honest details about your loan, it would be them right? They can help you find a quick payday loan to meet your needs when you need any amount between $200 to $1500.

Cool Site Of The Day: Car Angels

While most days around here at Moto Madness are spent discussing our two wheeled loves, we still like to give a little love to the 4 wheeled variety, especially when it’s to help children.

DH and I have decided to make a car donation this year because we have 3 cars to get rid of that don’t have a market value to make it worthwhile to sell them. DH was going to take them to the scrap yard, but I decided I would rather donate them to a charity that can use them.

I’ve been looking at different car charities that can take them, and I think I’ve finally found the one I’m going to use. Car Angel is a non-profit organization that uses donated cars to generate revenue to make videos that help teens and kids. The money raised so far has allowed this charity to give away 2.4 million videos like this one.

With so much garbage out there on our screens these days it’s nice to see an organization trying to give our children something worth watching. Children can learn many lessons from these videos, and the included Spanish subtitles also help them to begin learning Spanish at a young age.

12 Motorcycle Myths

I stumbled upon a post today over at Motorcyclecruiser.com by Art Friedman. The Deadly Dozen: 12 Motorcycle Safety Myths and Misconceptions outlines 12 Deadly Myths that even the best riders might think are true. Check out the article to see what myths you believe have been busted and why those myths aren’t true. The best way to protect ourselves on the roads is to know what’s fact and what’s not. How many of these myths have you heard so much you’ve believed them? Here is an example of just a couple of those myths.

#5 A Helmet Won’t Help in Most Crashes

The Moto Guitar

There are two things that seem to go together. Motorcycles and Guitars. There’s a guitar that I would love to own because it combines the best of both worlds. It’s called The Moto Guitar, and the design is unusual but brilliant!

Although you might take one look at it and think The Moto Guitar isn’t a real guitar, it is. It’s a 6 string electric guitar featuring a maple neck with rosewood fingerboard that is bolted onto a machined aluminum motorcycle engine. The wheel is 12″ of rubber with chrome spokes, and the guitar comes complete with a vibrato arm made to look like a kick starter. You can even get accessories like a padded leather seat with fringe that is an armrest or a gas cap that is a pick dispenser. The guitar even comes complete with real engine sounds.

How much does it cost? Well you’ll have to contact the artist, Peter McGilton, for information on that one. Currently this is a one of a kind, and if you’re interested in buying it you can have a personal viewing setup for you.
