Nicholas Cacciapaglia’s family remembers him as the one who wasn’t afraid to try anything.
He tried playing guitar in middle school and proved those wrong who thought that as an athlete, he wouldn’t put in the effort.
Then he decided to take up a new career in auto mechanics at the age of 22 and succeeded at that.
However, it was that “adventurous” attitude that led to the 24-year-old’s death, father Phillip Cacciapaglia explained.
“He had a thirst for learning and he was very determined,” the father said. “Sorry to say, but that’s one of the reasons why he got
Chris Webster began cycling before he had his own bicycle. He borrowed one of his friend’s to ride the 14 miles to and from high school each day.
Originally from Kansas, today Webster lives in Ozark and works as a flight nurse for Mercy. When he’s not working in the air, he enjoys pedaling close to the ground, participating in bicycle tours across the Midwest. One of his favorites is Big BAM (Bicycle Across Missouri).
Big BAM is a six-day bike ride, this year along Route 66. The ride begins in Joplin on June 12 with overnight stops in
Tens of thousands of pedal pushers took to the streets for the annual TD Five Boroughs Bike Tour on Sunday, May 1.
Some 32,000 cyclists signed up to ride through 40 miles of car-free streets in every borough of the Big Apple, and the sold-out tour operated at full capacity for the first time
Naturally, I reached for my Aerostich. The sport-tourer’s uniform of choice, it seemed like the right thing to wear when the invite to test Suzuki’s newest sport-tourer – the 2022 GSX-S1000GT+ – popped up in my inbox. It offers full-body protection from both the ground and the elements, is easy to take on and off, has loads of pockets, and has room underneath for layers (including an airbag, in my case). I felt like I made the right decision when I hopped on the bike.
In hindsight, maybe I should have grabbed my leathers.

The new Tiger 1200 is not a revision, it’s not an update, and it certainly isn’t just a set of spoked wheels added to a touring motorcycle. It is absolutely, a 100% all-new machine from the ground up. Exhaustive comparisons to last year’s model are not worth making, especially when you consider the Tiger 1200 Rally has a 21”/18” wheelset vs. the outgoing Tiger 1200 XC’s 19”/17” combo. The big tiger also got a new engine, a purpose-built off-road suspension and received a 55-pound weight reduction!
Will this now be the adventure bike to beat in the liter-plus class? Let’s
Many see the purpose-built dual-purpose Royal Enfield Himalayan to be a very apt motorcycle for a country like ours, seeing as we don’t have to go really far in search of adventure if you actually think about it. After a couple of heavy showers during the monsoon season, many of our city’s municipalities treat us to the finest stretches of broken paved roads, massive craters and sometimes there’s even the occasional river crossing right outside our doorsteps. The Himalayan manages to take all this in its stride with great diplomacy, however, the Royal Enfield felt the need to make gritty
Mutt Motorcycles started out doing custom work but after a number of years of building some “serious” bikes, Mutt decided that the rest of the market needed something without the “serious” price tag. It is with that notion that the brand set out to take its experience in the custom scene to its lineup of production motorcycles. The initial offering from Mutt includes a selection of 125cc and 250cc models, and this is the 2022 Mutt Grand Tourer Super Single 250, or the GT-SS for short.
To get into custom bikes, you’d need a bike, a
