Special Commemorative Indian Larry Edition


It’s been five years since the custom motorcycle scene lost one of their greatest talents. Indian Larry was the man, and the story of his life was as unique as the motorcycles he built in his Brooklyn shop.

Larry lived life on his terms and touched many people as he blazed a trail across the chopper culture. Now, to mark this five year anniversary, Indian Larry Motorcycles and Cycle Source Magazine have joined forces to release a commemorative issue in his honor titled “Five Long Years.” 


You can get all the details at the Cycle Source Magazine website, and while you are there, you can listen to some great Generation Next - Open Road Radio.

Rollin With Romy - Destination Daytona

Help put a wounded soldier back on the road and send him to a hero’s welcome at Daytona Bike Week in March! A "Rollin With Romy Poker Run" Jan. 24th from the Tampa Bay area to Destination Daytona will kick off fundraising events in January, February and March. Details:  Rollin With Romy Poker Run

In the fall of 2008, Romulo “Romy” Camargo, a career Special Forces Army warrant officer, was on his third combat tour in Afghanistan when his Special Forces Detachment was ambushed. Romy was shot in the neck but miraculously survived thanks to the Green Beret medics who were able to save his life. He was evacuated to medical facilities in Germany and then on to Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D.C.

Romy Camargo (center in picture) is paralyzed from his shoulders down. After a year in the VA hospital he is recovering some of the personal freedom we all too often take for granted -- like breathing without the assistance of a machine.

He is now maneuvering his wheelchair by pushing a joystick with his mouth, and moving back home to be with his family. One major hurdle remains – getting back on his motorcycle.

Myrtle Beach Helmet Law Challenge 'Fast Tracks' to SC Supreme Court

The Myrtle Beach helmet law challenge has been placed on the "fast track" and will be heard by the South Carolina Supreme Court at 10 a.m. Feb. 3 in Columbia.

The group, Business Owenrs Organized to Save Tourism (BOOST) said it’s encouraged by the high court’s decision to hear the case and not let it go through the courts first.

The City of Myrtle Beach told local News 13 that it’s fine with the case going on the “fast track” because the case was always expected to end up in the high court.
