| In 1996 we opened a retail store with motorcycle related gifts and stuff. Not your ordinary type stuff. The kind of merchandise others did not carry. Biker Basics had become a unique entity thanks to the support of the Pen Cycle Shop and the areas motorcycle community. We were very successful regardless of the 30+ biker related shops are in the Tidewater Virginia. Biker Basics worked with the other motorcycle merchants, no against them. Biker Basics was and still is a family oriented company and is here to support the sport no matter what you ride. Biker Basics closed its door in 2000 due to a 'regular' daytime job relocation to Richmond, Virginia.I have been riding motorcycles since 1972. Started out on
a Honda CB350cc. Progressed to a Triumph 500cc. Since 1977 I have
owned this 1975 FLH Police Special, It's a great ride and I love it. Laurie, my wife of 17+ years
and friend for 27+ years, loves riding with me too. Pictured is our 10 year old rottweiler, Kaiser.* ![]() Adam - Co-founder and Co-operator of Biker Basics and bikerbasics.com footnote: * We had to send Kaiser to the BIG yard in the sky during the summer of 2000 due to his failing health. This picture was taken with only him and I and the camera set on automatic, placed on top of a trash can. I had taken about eight photos trying to get him to look at the camera and not follow me as I ran behind the bike before the camera snapped the pic. He was the best Rot in the whole world and WE miss him. You can also see this photo at www.BikerEnews.com Online Bike Show |
