OUR PHILOSOPHY ON PUTTING TOGETHER A MOTORCYCLE NEWSPAPER IS NOT TO MASSAGE OUR EGOS SO MUCH. SO THIS IS WHAT WE DO. We didn't practically grow up on dirt bikes. It was too awkward for eating and sleeping. In fact, we didn't ride our first motocross until we were 27, and one of us isn't that old yet. Yet we know enough to use a Twin Air Filter. We use a Twin Air because then you don't have to put on all that greasy kid stuff around the edges that gets on your hands and all over the rest of your bike. Besides, we saw Brad and Bimbo use one in Europe. We put in a new sparking plug whenever the old one doesn't work, but sometimes it's hard to tell. On the other hand, sometimes it's really easy to tell because there's no spark. Next year we're going to put diesel engines in our bikes so we don't have to worry about the pesky things. r--- - - - - - - - - - - - - - --- - - -. DEPT. SUB. P.O. BOX 498 LONG BEACH.

Always offer your seat on the bus to a lady, if you can find one. Never ride sidesaddle. Only sissies do th at. Don't ride over your head because there's no traction up there in the atmosphere. If you are leading, don't. Or trail behind, if you won 't lead. Or be someplace in the middle. Never stop when you can't. Never eat purple ice. Never fall off. Don't crash. Don't ride naked, you'll catch cold, and our Momma told us not to catch cold or else we can't go riding with our buddies anymore. A great sense of humor and paid up insurance policies make us swell guys to go riding with. We can crash and burn with the best of them. We are Editors at Cycle News. You can go out with us anytime, if you're a beautiful single girl over 18, preferably rich. Cycle News is great to crack up with. Timing makes all the differenec. Stay ahead (or behind, or inthe middle) of the pack. Ride Cycle News every week. 0 I enclose check or money order City Third, we make sure that there are no holes in our engine cases, or if there are, we cover them with Gorilla Snot and Duct Tape. Fourth, we eheck the tires for knobs, lumps, or other unsightly bulges. Then we cut them off with a razor blade just like we saw Mert Lawwill do. Once you (dare we say it) Gas It Up and Get It On, riding etiquette is important. Riding motorcycles is OK, too. Never run over your buddies.
