![]() Vendors carried everything from patches with Bible verses on them to kinky adult sex toys, plus an endless supply of all things leather. My partner in crime, J., and I spent the earlier part of the day wandering around together from booth to booth on the fairgrounds, drinking $4 cans of Bud Light while sight-seeing and window shopping among the tents. Boobitalism is the next wave in economic systems. It all gets you more liquor, which in turn just really means the chance to see more boobs. Inflation is non-existent, and all values are equal: a $5 boob is a $10 boob is a $20 boob. In this new Sin City, boobs are the currency through which all trade is negotiated. The wonderful thing about it is the simplicity of it all. Women are walking around arm in arm with their friends, popping their tops for free shots and shiny cheap necklaces. There are beads, booze, and boobs all over the place. The entire campground behind the Fowlerville Fair has become a sort of Tent City of Sodom. Oh the pleasures and pitfalls of the golfcart: you never know what could happen when you sit inside one of those things apparently. My neighbor died when he fell off the back of one in the early 90s. Things change and in this new age, at least we still have a motorcycle magazine on the news stand.You know, there’s something just downright amusing about the twisted, ironic perversion that is people having raunchy public sex on the squarest vehicle in the world: the golf cart, originally designed for the sole purpose of carrying straights in uptight checkered apparel around from fairway to fairway as they presumably look down on lesser people and plot ways to make those people’s lives more miserable. ![]() I don’t have any issue with the new direction while at the same time, I am kind of missing the old magazine. I am sure many purest will not like the new Easyriders but, at least it is still around. The gangs were not identified.Įasyriders is dead, long live Easyriders. The town, fairgrounds and county will not allow the Easyriders event to return because, during the 2021 event, there was, very nearly, a “gang” battle.Īccording to reports an undercover cop stopped the unnamed biker gangs from starting a shootout when he spotted “his” gang putting guns together and getting ready to move against their rivals. Short stories and great pictures laid out in a modern format the magazine looks nothing like the classic version.Įasyriders did support three events 2021 but the long running, over 30 years, rodeo in Chillicothe, OH will not be back in 2022 but not due to the pandemic. I purchased the second issue and I enjoyed it quite a bit. On their website they state that this is an “Elevation of an Iconic Brand”, that it is more then a magazine it is a lifestyle. The magazine, as noted above, is now more “up-scale” targeted to a very different audience then the original Easyriders. If you go to the new Easyriders website you can purchase $16 shaving kits, $30 t-shirts, $25 boxers, and $60 hoodies. It appears that a Canadian clothing company called StrongHold now owns the name and trademark of the old company. Later Easyriders would host and run events, rallies (or as they called them rodeos), and motorcycle shows.įrom what I can gather, that Easyrider magazine closed its doors and auctioned off what was left in 2018. From my point of view, magazines have been the hardest hit with many, to many, motorcycle magazines failing to survive the transition.Įasyriders magazine started in the early 1970s and always showcased the best motorcycles from across America along with the aforementioned scantily clad women. But, as we all know, the printed word is in decline due to the evolution of digital media. The original Easyriders magazine was a champion of the counterculture, on the road biker symbolized in movies like “Easyrider”. All this raised my curiosity to find out just what happed to the old school motorcycle magazine. The new Easyriders magazine looked more like coffee table style magazine then anything else. ![]() In fact, glancing through it at the newsstand, it did not have “really” have any hot bikes and no nude or scantly clothed women. ![]() But that magazine did not look at all correct, it did not have a hot bike and girl on the cover.
