I had the great privilege to visit this exhibit at the Ronald Reagan Library in Simi Valley CA last month. There are some real gems among the large motorcycle exhibit–well worth a trip over the hill for LA residents. I was in town for other matters and luckily heard about the installation from some fellow fire riders. I encourage folks to see the exhibit whether they VIP with Ms. Davidson or run up the hill with a museum day-pass.

She owns that look. Riveting. Can’t take my eyes off her.
The H-D® men’s clothing line needs a little help. Less of the logo, more on the style.
Everyone wants their clothes to make them feel good – clothes you can live in, until they start to rot, and then we like them even more.
Hmm. Somehow, the “Born to be Wild” theme and Reagan just don’t go together.
