Tales from Two Wheels

There is something to be said for riding solo; you and your thoughts alone on the open road. It can be therapeutic, serene, even meditative. But something truly magical happens on a group ride.

There was an old ad campaign for Honda Motorcycles that said, “You meet the nicest people on a Honda. ” It could be the most iconic sales slogan ever created for a motorcycle ad campaign. We like it, but we kinda think it holds true for motorcycles in general.

New for Spring, Sully’s is stocking the Wakefield Leather Motorcycle Jacket from Merla Moto. This is a classic beauty of a jacket, built with quality craftsmanship and safety in mind.

It’s November and gratitude is in the air. We love this season. As riders near us squeeze in the last few rides of the year before putting their bikes into winter hibernation, the leaves are changing color and fluttering to the ground mixed with a few snowflakes.

What’s the difference between impact protection and slide protection?

While shopping for riding gear, you’ve probably been faced with a lot of protective options. The features and benefits can get complicated.

Occasionally, someone will walk into the shop and ask to speak to the boss. “He’s asleep on the couch right now” is usually our answer. Another fun one is, “he’s licking your hand at the moment.”

Head to your local motorcycle festival, group ride, or friendly dealership and ask a few people what they think an enduro bike is. You will likely get a wide variety of answers.

When we look back on our earliest scribblings about Sully’s Ride Shop, we see one word come up again and again - community.

Riding season is in full force around here and it’s time to think about your helmet!

If you’ve walked past our shop, the unique motorcycle in the window probably caught your eye.
