"This picture was sent to me from my boss while he was in Devils Tower, Wyo. Being an avid rider myself, I initially had to work through my jealousy before I realized what a beautiful photo this was.  In one side of the shining chrome we see him and his friend and in the other was Devils Tower looming over both of them. - Beth Barnett

  • "It was great to see the 1928 Indian Prince in the May 2010 issue. Here is a 1946 picture of my Mom, Ruth ‘Sis’ Arnold, on her 1927 Indian Prince, a gift from her father, Fritzie Baer, the founder of the Laconia motorcycle races and a long time racer, announcer and official for the AMA. He was also inducted into the Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 1998. This picture of my mom is also in Cristine Sommer Simmons latest book, The American Motorcycle Girls 1900-1950, pages 194-195. Cris commented that “Sis looks ready for Hollywood …..'Only Mom would have an all white outfit for riding. My Mom is definitely a Motorcycle Mama." - Bobby Arnold of Bow, N.H.

  • "Here’s a beautiful little fellow (or gal) that I think is a “Diana” which showed some interest in riding with me. We had stopped at Conneaut Park, Ohio, on our way to Niagara Falls, to view Lake Erie and this little critter decided to take up residence on my gloves and helmet which hanging from my highway peg.  It showed no interest in leaving as we snapped numerous photographs. Eventually it decided to stay in Ohio, and we continued our journey to Niagara." - Tena Jones of Fort Myers, Fla.

  • "Gymnastics and motorcycles do mix. Our family made the 2010 Catalina race a four-day weekend. The kids were happy to get Friday and Monday off school. I got to Race Saturday at 12 p.m. and spend quality time with the family.<br />
<br />
About the Catalina photo:  Before the start of each race, racers got to do a parade lap before going up start line.  I asked my daughter Elena to pose for me as the racers made it to the boardwalk in Avalon.  She’s a competitive gymnast and she rides.  Simply standing for a photo does not qualify as a pose.  That why she HAD TO do a handstand." - Leo Ramirez of Vista, Calif.
