Moto Mutts

October 14, 2008

Finding two things you love is good, but when you can mix two things that you love and you come out with a unique product that is even better!  That is exactly what Racer Space member Moto Mutts has done.  They took their love for dogs and motorcycle racing and combined the two into a unique line of products for dog lovers.

You can customize their billet dog tag or collar with either a racer’s number or the doggie’s name.

 

                        

 

They are also working to support injured rider Josh Morros who was injured in the Hare and Hound race in Nevada.  They are donating more than half of the proceeds from one of their tags to Josh’s medical fund.  Way to go Moto Mutts!

Powersports racing and Politics

September 5, 2008

Racers of all kinds have one thing in common, the ability (either through courage, ignorance, arrogance or confidence) to push fear aside and pursue that one perfect (yet elusive) lap.  To that end, they sacrifice weekend after weekend and paycheck after paycheck.  Suffering along the way the slings and arrows of road trips, medical co-pays, spousal or parental protest and scars, bruises and raspberries galore.  Find me a motocross racer with a un-broken collarbone and I will show you someone that needs to practice more!  What is our reward besides the occasional trophy and moments of glory?  We also have instant refuge…

You see, no matter what else is wrong with the world, racers always have racing. 

 

You say that you got a border fence going up across the street, Russian tanks are in your backyard, and now they want to drill for oil in your garden?  Fire up the old Honda and begin building a motocross jump !

 

You say that your mortgage is three times the value of your house and property taxes are through the roof?  Get some “seat-time” on the Yamaha!

 

Perplexed about living in the greatest country in the world and having to choose between Obama/Biden and McCain/Palin? Click off CNN and roost some berms.

 

Stressed about the fact that we have a 50% chance of being a heart attack away from Sarah Palin being the leader of the free world?

 

You are just a kick-start away from Elysium (that means heaven for all you Palin supporters).

 

And, after all, she was the mayor of a town of 5,000 with the help of an “administrator”, and has two whole years of experience running a state with fewer residents than Ft. Worth Texas!

 

So given the political nature of the latest Racer Space Motorsports Social Network Blog article, this week’s inspirational quote comes from Theodore Roosevelt (who would have made an excellent racer had their been four strokes during his time).

 

 

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done


them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who
strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does
actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the
best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that
his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”

Theodore Roosevelt- April 1910
