Long-suffering readers of the print version of FB will remember this ditty about the time yrs trly rode a scooter in a celebrity motorcycle ride and witnessed Cowboys center Al Johnson wreck his bike (aside from some road rash, he was fine). Our destination that day was Rick Fairless’ Strokers, a well-known bike shop on Harry Hines. Comes now the news that the Speed Channel is launching a show called Texas Hardtails, “a comedic look at the world of custom motorcycle giant Rick Fairless and his Dallas business.” I predict women in bikinis. And motorcycles.
