/
/
comments
(Editors Note: This is another submission by our good friend across the pond, Chris Haining, aka Rust-MyEnemy. He described his experiences with amphibious vehicles while at University. It’s a great read, and a great Hooniverse Motorboat Monday Piece.) Seals are incredible animals. Their beguilingly innocent faces with those teary, doe-eyes belie their astonishing grace and…

Last Fall, the annual Best of France and Italy car show arrived without the necessary fanfare here on the Hoon. Lacking that prior notice, many who would have liked to attend missed the show – which was a shame as it showcased some amazing cars, trucks and bikes. Making sure that doesn’t happen for the…

At least here in the Golden State, all post-’75 cars are required to pass a smog test (though oddly, no…

Steve Ducharme’s “Motorcycle Picture of the Day” has been of my favorite bike blogs for a while — a definite daily check. Unfortunately, the powers that be at Blogger (where the site was hosted) determined through some inscrutable, automated Google algorithm that this above-average-quality blog was “spam” and unceremoniously locked the door, sending hundreds, perhaps…

Be prepared Hoons, I spent all day yesterday on the road (slow and go through Orlando, Florida sucks!!) and crashed to sleep around 8pm on New Year’s Eve 2011.

comments
Back in March, we featured this pair of e12-series 528s for sale down here in SoCal, agonizing over their similarity to our own e12-based 633csi, but a lack of storage for two more cars. Luckily, aspiring LeMons pauper racer and Hooniverse commenter Brian put together a crew and pulled the trigger. We’ve been going back…
