"Love him or hate him, Bruce Arnold shakes up the Motorcycle Rights community on a regular basis, and in the end I think we are all better off for it."--Rusty "Thorsblood" Bongard

Fellow Riders and Freedom Fighters:

People often ask me how I can afford to devote so much time and effort to bringing reason, accountability, objectivity and above all TRUTH to motorcyclists' rights, motorcycle awareness and biker politics. The answer is that I can't ... at least not as much ... perhaps not any more ... unless you are willing to help me help you:

Every year, I devote hundreds of hours of my time fighting for your rights and safety as much as my own. That time is not free. The trade-off is I have less time available to earn a living, less income because of that, and lower reserves because of that. Still I get by, so long as no major problems arise. But now, an emergency has arisen:

Last Monday, the odometer on my '99 H-D FXDS rolled over 150,000 miles. Only minutes later--right smack dab in the Middle of Nowhere, West Texas--my engine began to hesitate, then groan, then grind, and finally freeze. By God's grace, I made it close enough to a Fina Station for a couple of Good Samaritans to see my plight and help me push her to a shady spot on the lot:

Twelve hours and nine hundred dollars later, my lifeless cruiser was towed to San Antonio and rolled into a relative's garage--where it will stay until I can raise several thousand dollars for a new engine, other needed repairs, and logistics back home. To make that happen any time soon, I need your help now:
