Video Tuesday: Do the test
2008-04-29 15:23:00 This is a very interesting approach to test people’s awareness and to prove a point. I’ll let the video speak for itself but I was pretty amazed when I watched it. I was so focused on what was going on that I litererally did not see what was right in front of my face. Good ... More About: Video , General , Test , Tuesday
Biker movie ?Hell Ride? in theaters August 8th
2008-04-28 15:35:00 That’s right boys and girls. The eagerly anticipated (at least by me) Quentin Tarantino produced film, Hell Ride will be in theaters this summer on August 8th. As you know I’ve been keeping my eye out for this movie, my last post was back in January and the first time I wrote about the ... More About: Movie , Biker
My first motorcycle love
2008-04-23 15:22:00 This past weekend my husband, Forrest, made a huge decision and traded in his tried and true 2001 Honda Shadow ACE 750 for a 2004 HD Road King. It was an interesting process to watch because as riders, we all have sentimental attachments to our motorcycles. While my husband loved his ACE, it just wasn’t ...

Video Tuesday: Harley Davidson Sponge Bath
2008-04-22 14:12:00 Cute video of a hen-pecked husband’s torrid love and passion for his Harley -Davidson. There’s a lot of soap and inappropriate touching, not to mention the quintessential, sexy soundtrack of “Let’s Get it On” by Mr. Marvin Gaye. But they’re clearly having a moment together. And that’s special. More About: Video , Bath , Tuesday , Harley Davidson

Drunk driver hits Sandra Bullock and Jesse James head on
2008-04-21 15:21:00 I normally don’t post news stories like this but since it practically happened in my backyard I’ll make an exception today. This is the kind of news story that would make a resident want to crawl down into a hole for a while: From boston.com: April 21, 2008 ...

aww?NUTS!
2008-04-16 15:48:00 OK, we’ve all seen them at least once. You know, you’re driving behind a big truck or a motorcycle and there they are, dangling from the rear fender. A giant set of…danglies, berries, stones, knackers, bollocks, teabags, family jewels, gnads, nuts, testicles -you know…balls! I don’t know what it is but this particular subject has ...

Video Tuesday: 1930?s motorcycle hill climb
2008-04-15 15:29:00 This is awesome, vintage footage of motorcycle hill climbs filmed somewhere in California in the 1930’s. I love watching this and seeing how bumpy the rides are up the hill. These guys were nuts. (sorry for the ads, blame revver.com) More About: Video , Motorcycle , Hill , Tuesday , Climb
OCC, My Name Is Earl and a bike for charity
2008-04-11 17:48:00 Last night the Teutels showed up on one of my favorite shows: My Name is Earl . Now, if you’ve never seen this show I have to tell you it’s one of the funniest shows on tv (and I’m super-critial of comedies. Or maybe I just have a strange sense of humor…but I digress). The premise of ... More About: My Name Is Earl , Charity , Bike
Video Tuesday: MF2 by Criss Angel
2008-04-08 16:04:00 Yes, ’tis true. A music video by Criss Angel , the magician. It’s kind of formulaic for a “metal” music video. Rock stars: check. (Introduction on the bullhorn by none other than Mr. Vince Neill, Sully from Godsmack and Nuno Bettencourt from Extreme in case you were wondering.) Cool motorcycles: check. A hip-looking crowd with some hot babes that have ... More About: Video , Criss Angel , Tuesday
Rippin-Kitten.com: 1 year later
2008-04-07 17:05:00 When I started this site a year ago, I really didn’t know what the goal of the site was going to be. Initially I wanted to put the call out to other young, rockin’ biker women (like me!), who maybe were part of Gen X and not quite ready to be a grown up (like ... More About: Kitten , Year
Video Tuesday: Girls, Girls, Girls by Motley Crue
2008-04-01 16:17:00 Inspired by watching a show on Fuse TV called Talking Metal I decided to dust off this strip club classic video by Motley Crue . Love it or hate it, you gotta admit, they look like they’re having a great time. More About: Video , Girls , Tuesday
Women only motorcycle events-sweet or sham?
2008-03-31 21:02:00 It seems to me that women-only motorcycle events are starting to become a big trend in our motorcycle world. I’ve always struggled with women specific events because for me, personally, I don’t think they’re necessary to make me proud of being a female rider. I like to hang with the boys anyways! I was perusing ... More About: Women , Events , Motorcycle , Sweet , Sham
Video Thursday: steampunk motorbike
2008-03-27 12:00:00 One of the most popular posts on this site has to be the one that featured steampunk-inspired motorcycles. Not only are the motorcycles art to behold, they’re just really frickin’ cool. Which brings me to a creation that’s been making the rounds all over the internet: a steam-electric hybrid motorcycle called The Whirlygig Emoto, built by ...

Where is Rippin-Kitten?
2008-03-20 18:26:00 Hello all, I just wanted to let you know that the reason Lizzie hasn’t posted in a few days is that she is in the hospital. She had been sick and was misdiagnosed, this lead to a rush to the ER the other night. Right now she is resting and doing well. ... More About: Kitten
Video Tuesday: American IronHorse
2008-03-11 15:02:00 I admit this is not the most exciting video in the world, but recent news indicates that American IronHorse is a fast-sinking ship. Reports say that the company is being forced into bankruptcy to pay debts to investors. The company ceased production last month and they pretty much fired all of their employees. But I guess ...

Harley-Davidson Womens Day Ride Raises Funds for MDAs Summer Camp Program
2008-03-10 15:53:00 Whenever there’s a bike week somewhere in the country it seems the accident/death toll always trumps other events that are newsworthy. Daytona 2008 is no different, with the death toll reaching seven as of Friday. So, here’s some good news for a change, regarding the first ever Harley -Davidson Woman’s Day Ride : Some 500 women cruised into Daytona ... More About: Summer , Camp , Program
Bikers and social networking: the trifecta
2008-03-06 13:54:00 I opened up a pretty big can of worms when I tackled the subject of social networking for bikers. Back in August I wrote a post about Bikerworlds, the first social site I found geared toward the biker community. In October I wrote a follow-up post regarding BikerOrNot.com, which is another very popular social network ... More About: Social , Social Networking , Networking
Video Tuesday: Johnny Knoxville crashes a motorcycle
2008-03-04 16:29:00 I’m going to let you in on one of my deep, dark guilty-pleasure secrets: I love watching Jackass. While I didn’t watch the show faithfully, I did watch both movies which unleashed my inner, giggling 12 year-old boy. The rational side of me knows that I shouldn’t like what they do one bit and that ... More About: Video , Motorcycle , Knoxville , Johnny Knoxville , Tuesday
Winter blues: I?ve finally hit the wall
2008-02-29 18:38:00 I’ve somehow remained optimistic through the month of February and managed to keep my mood elevated, but I’m finally fed up with winter. I sit here in bed, having called in sick from work. My doctor diagnosed me with bronchitis this morning (which I’ve had for 2 months now). It’s 14 degrees outside and we’re ...

Video Tuesday: Motorcycle Ice Racing
2008-02-26 16:53:00 This is a bit of a departure from the normal Video Tuesday . Here in New England we are bracing for yet another winter storm and even though my bike is stored safely for the winter I’d still love to get out there and ride.

Garage Girls - a new site for women, or is it?
2008-02-21 17:25:00 About a week ago I was going through my news reader and came across an article on Custom Motorcycle Talk about a new website for the ladies called Garage Girls . The beginning of the article really pumped up the site and immediately my interest was piqued: WOMEN RIDERS HAVE A NEW WEBSITE TO CHECK OUT www.garage-girls.com goes ...

2008-02-20 16:04:00 OK, so I’m off a day this week. Having a Monday holiday always messes my schedule up! So, our video today is about how to pick up a dropped motorcycle.

Things and stuff in the Rippin-Kitten world
2008-02-13 20:51:00 It occurred to me recently that it’s been a while since I’ve done a somewhat personal/informative post, so today I’m going to take the opportunity to catch up on some info. Way back in October, I was bound and determined to get my ass to Daytona this year. Well…looks like that’s not going to happen after ... More About: World , Stuff , Things , Kitten
Video Tuesday: Bollock Brothers Harley David
2008-02-12 15:28:00 Holy ’80’s Batman! One of my favorite streaming radio stations of late is Radio Nigel, a station that plays ’80’s music WITH ATTITUDE. Anyway, yesterday they played “Harley David ” by the Bollock Brothers , which sounded somewhat familiar to me. Low and behold, I even found their video on youtube in all it’s hilarity. Honestly, these guys don’t ... More About: Video , Tuesday
