Daytona beach bike week 2010 youtube video

Hey everyone, I’ve been having a good time at bike week in Daytona beach 2010! I went up a few days ago and shot this short video of bikers on main st. It’s not much but it gives you a little idea of what was going on.

But I made an even better bike week video of the wet T shirt contest at Dirty Harry’s event! I’ve still got to edit that one but I’ll post it asap. Finally today, Sunday, I went back up and spent my time at the Daytona 500 speedway.

They have lots of booths there selling leather jackets, T shirts and everything else you can think of. They also had some amazing custom bikes that I took videos and pictures of. I need to edit those also.

Once that video is made it will be even better than the one above. Bike week this year was one of the coldest I have ever seen. There was not as much going on due to the cold weather, the beaches were empty for the most part.

But it’s always a fun time and interesting,,,, always interesting! Anyway watch my video above for a little sample of bike week 2010. I’ll have two or more that are better in a few days. 😉

Bike week at Daytona Beach 2010!

bike week in Daytona Beach 2010

The Daytona Beach Bike week event is almost here! Bike week 2010 is from Feb. 26th to March 7th. Every damn year I say to myself I’m going to open up a booth and sell some of my leather jackets, but every year I never get around to it until it’s too late!

I have a small gallery you see in the top left sidebar of bike week 2009. I got up there late in the day so I did not have time to take much pictures. This year I’m going to spend a full day up there taking videos with my new camcorder!

This year is going to be a good one, with record bikers attending. You might think that with the recession not many would show up. But bikers are resourceful types, and bike week is too big to pass up!

Happy New Year from Leather Supreme!

Happy new years from leather supreme

HI everyone, hope you all had a great Christmas! I had a relaxing, quiet day to myself, made some phone calls to family up north. So now it’s almost the new year and I wanted to wish everyone a happy and better 2010. I’m sure most people are going to be glad to see 2009 go away!

I’ll be happy to start a fresh new year that’s for sure. I’ve been working on some new websites and have learned a lot of new things this year. I’m making more links to my website here and soon I’ll change the front page so it looks more like a normal leather jacket website.

Then I’ll add a lot more items in here. Leather saddle bags and all the other motorcycle bags, more leather jackets, gloves, vest and so on. Maybe even add some sunglasses, accessories and other things. My tourist site is getting big too; that’s the one in the left sidebar square banner here.

So anyway I hope the new year is good to you all, and I hope you have fun on New Year’s eve. Please drive carefully, I can’t sell you a leather jacket if your in the hospital! Happy New Year’s! 🙂

Happy Thanksgiving from Leather Supreme!

Happy Thanksgiving from Leather Supreme

Well it’s Thanksgiving week, time to look around you and be thankful for what you have. I suppose this year a lot of folks don’t have a whole lot to be thankful for. Those who don’t have a job, lost their home or otherwise are in the grip of these hard times are not going to be in the mood for it.

But my favorite saying is, “everything is relative”. Those who think they have it bad and feel down don’t understand that many, many others would love to trade places with you. Everyone always thinks the other guy has it better and your the one missing out.

Trust me, that’s not true. Many would be happy to get a cold bowl of rice on Thanksgiving day, then go back to their tarp hut. So quit whining! Here in the USA many families will be having a traditional Thanksgiving, with a family get together, football on the big screen and lots of beer!

I even made a special Thanksgiving leather jacket, complete with a cool turkey on the back! It should sell fantastic, I’m sure you want one, right? No? You don’t want a special turkey leather jacket for Thanksgiving? Well ok, maybe I’ll re-think it then. Anyway I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving and remember, everything is relative, so be thankful for what you DO have.

Happy Halloween from Leather Supreme!

Happy Halloween from leather supreme

Well this is a late post for Halloween, but it’s still before most go trick or treating today so it’s close enough! I’m still up visiting my mom in Vermont so I’m not doing much. It’s cold and windy out with a good chance of rain. If I was going out I’d dress up as a bad-ass biker. Or maybe leather face!

Or I could wear a cheap patchwork leather jacket and go as that guy in “Silence of the lambs”. (you know, he was making a skin form for himself,,patchwork,,, yeah,,,). But since I’m not going anywhere I get to stay in and write this riveting post!

So anyway I hope everyone else is having a good time trick or treating, or going to some crazy Halloween party. Be safe and watch out for monsters and goblins. Happy Halloween from Leather Supreme! (Hey, it rhymes!) 😉
