I can never have too many choices for motorcycle luggage. Ive been riding for almost 20 years and it seems every time I go on a trip, I have a new set of backrest bags Im using or in this, case, testing. The latest set I put through it paces is Dowcos Iron Rider Luggage System. The system consists of five separate bags that can be mixed and matched depending what your storage needs are for that trip.

Even though I write a column about motorcycles and women, the most common question I am asked by people is how to lose weight and what the fastest and easiest way to achieve that goal is. I have been a personal fitness trainer for 20 years. I worked as a member of ski patrol for 10 years, and I studied Kung Fu San Su for nearly 10 years, achieving black belt status.
