President of Russia, Putin, Prefers Riding Motorcycle Than Boring State Affairs

#Russia #Putin - Recently the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, met with his biker buddy, the Night Wolves motorcycle club president, Aleksandr Zaldostanov, to award him a medal or two.

Putin had already been on a ride-out or two with the biker gang, although he did ride a three wheeler, he seemed to enjoy himself with this group of tough speaking, leather clad, bearded uber-macho men. It fit his image and style.

Zaldostanov invited him to come to another gathering held in Stalingrad, where they would have a motorcycle show planned for August 23rd. But Putin's time is accounted for by the second, and he spends too much time doing boring stuff, like throwing the Pussy Riots into jail, keeping Snowden out of Obama's hands and fishing big fish. But according to Putin "I want to be there with you, I would be glad to sit on a motorcycle and take off somewhere with you" and he added "I have boring matters to take care of."

Although he probably will not attend this biker party and ride-out, he might just surprise everyone and join in with his leather clad buddies.

#EricBuell #Hybrid #Motorcycle - A lot has been written recently about Erik Buell's new sports motorcycle. Several teasers, hints here and there, but so far no details have been published.

But a quick look at recently filed patents will show that Erik Buell filed a patent for a hybrid motorcycle (and scooter). Maybe it's nothing, but the patent was filed January 2012.

You will see that the patent calls for an electric motor producing in excess of 200 horsepower, possibly even 400 hp! Engine displacement can be anything from 100 to 1000 cc...........
