A boat trailer includes a winch that mounts on top of or below the bow stand to wind the boat onto the trailer and help secure the bow eye while towing. When the time comes to replace this essential piece of towing equipment, your buying decision will hinge on a number of factors and preferences, many of which I’ve detailed for you here.

As soon as sixth grade is out, Alex Santacroce drops his black Air Jordan backpack in the house, grabs a banana (good for hand cramps) from the kitchen, and mounts his custom-built SE Savage Flyer bike. He can appear almost solemn as he coasts down the driveway, front wheel aloft, gently shifting his body to keep the handlebars straight. Riding is absolutely mind-clearing for him. He says sometimes he’ll try a trick 1,000 times before it’s perfect.

He’s 11 and makes $100,000 a year riding his bike in the suburbs. Police are not pleased

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Thank you for reading our post, please rate this article at the end. If you plan on using the ATV for general riding around your property or easy trail rides, 550 cc or under will be plenty big enough.

The unthinkable has happened. Again. A gunman has taken multiple lives. The difference this time? It happened here, in Alameda. We are an island, both physically and psychologically. I spend a lot of time explaining to people that our focus is Alameda, and Alameda alone, so our coverage doesn’t usually include stories as horrific as this one.

These days, Harley-Davidson motorcycles are the most powerful they have ever been. With its current selection of models having a horsepower range of 87 HP to 150 HP, it is fair to assume that Harley has dispelled the notion that they are "too slow." But it hasn't always been this way. Throughout Harley-Davidson's 120+ years as a company, there have been many motorcycles that were not generating fairly low peak HP numbers. Some were fairly common Sportster models, while others were lesser-known collaborations with other manufacturers. Below is a list of some of the least powerful motorcycles in Harley-Davidson's entire history.

Dash cam video shows a major crash involving a big rig that occurred on a Pennsylvania interstate last week. The crash occurred on July 19 at 7:15 p.m. on I-380 near Dunmore. In the video, you can see a box truck followed by a white sedan traveling at slower speeds in the right lane of I-380 with hazard lights activated. A red Mazda Miata driven by Patrick Ryder and a second white sedan both attempt to move left to avoid the slower vehicles. However, before the Miata can move over, it is hit from the rear by a semi truck, causing the car to veer left across the interstate into a wooded area.

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

You might have opinions on darksiding your bike, which we're not here to debate today. But what if you use four car tires instead of just two?. And more importantly, what if you've decided they should all be in a line, sort of like the most gigantic single inline skate you've ever seen?

My first racing love, the thing that got me into going fast, was rally. I'd sit at my parent's computer as a kid, wait for our modem to dial up, wait again for the video to fully load, and then watch a 30-second clip of WRC or Baja, and then do it all over again. Going fast along wooded trails, snow-packed logging roads, and the open deserts just got my heart pumping.
