August is here and that means we are inching ever so closer to the end of Summer. Kids are finally going back to school, football season is only a few weeks away from starting and at least we have some pre-season games to watch and hopefully this weather starts to get under control. It's hard planning any events or rides lately because of these storms that seem to pop up out of nowhere. People are already starting to talk about October events and even the holiday season, one of my favorite times of the year. One thing I wanted to talk about in my article this month is that Full Throttle Magazine & Multi-Media is not just a print magazine. We do much more than that! What can Full Throttle do for you!? Glad you asked, I mean, I asked that question :) We can design ads, flyers, postcards, web ads, facebook ads, etc. for you. We can help advertise your event, bike night, charity ride or benefit or whatever event you have coming up in our monthly printed magazine as well as on our facebook page with over 108,000 like ALL ORGANIC likes, meaning people who came to our page and clicked the like button. We can help host your event by supplying an emcee, help you get vendors, organize the parking, book the bands and even get trophies for a bike or car show. Full Throttle can help you handle any and all of your advertising. The Full Throttle crew has a busy month of August coming up. We, Dew Charlie and myself, are leaving for Sturgis as this magazine hits the streets as we will be hosting two ride in bike shows at The World Famous Buffalo Chip Campgrounds. This is pretty amazing as we ran into Nyla who manages all the events at the Buffalo Chip in Daytona Beach for Bike Week while we were hosting our ride in bike show at Destination Daytona. We started talking and next thing you know we are hosting not 1 but 2 shows. The first show is Sunday August 2nd and the second show is Monday August 3rd. The Sunday show is a 10 class open to all bikes show and the winner will also be receiving a FIND IT NOW GPS unit for our great sponsor for this event! The Monday show is a HARLEY ONLY show with 10 classes and trophies for 1st and send place in each class and a Full Throttle Choice Special trophy and a Best In Show Trophy along with a FIND IN NOW GPS unit as well! We are looking forward to a fun, LONG, road trip, making new connections and hopefully doing so business. If you are looking to plan a nice little weekend get-a-way in the state coming up be sure to make plans for the Phil Peterson's Key West Poker Run happening September 17th - 20th. I have done this run numerous times and I always love it. Cruisin down US 1 with great stops along the way that are always filled with tons of bikes this weekend. There are always thousands on bikes and bikers on this ride and it pretty fun to see them all having a good time on Duval Street. I would start planning now as rooms fill up quickly for this weekend. For more info on the ride visit www.petersonsharley.com I would like to say happy birthday to my mother-in-law, Momta and my son Tyler who turn 15 this month, that means he can get his learners permit, lord help us! I would also like to say happy birthday to Norma, Gamo, Paula, Anne, Doug and Nancy. I hope everyone has a great month, be careful driving and riding in the school zones when the kids start back to school! Be safe, Be smart, don't drink and ride, and I'll see you soon!

Being from North Carolina, I learned at an early age, you treat people the way you want to be treated. When you grow up in an area where everyone knows everyone you learn what you do in life always comes home to you. Anything I have ever done in this business over the last 30 years has always come back to this important lesson. The people I have met in the Florida biker community seem to hold those values as well. I feel privileged to partner with Full Throttle to offer monthly tips that will help you learn more about how to protect your financial picture and create “real” income from what you have. I have loved riding bikes my whole life. I used to get on my brother’s dirt bike and take it through the trails where we lived. I have been on the beautiful Blue Ridge more times than I can remember and the feel of the curves on those roads are not comparable. I have had the thrill of going over the Sunshine Skyway the first time on a bike. So my love for two wheels has always been in my blood that is why I wanted to bring “From Wall Street to Main Street” On Two Wheels to the biker community. When I graduated from the University of North Carolina, I went to work for Merrill Lynch. At that time you had to work as an apprentice until someone gave you a chance and you learned by watching. I was fascinated to watch the ticker symbols go by and how the markets worked. At that time you got no pay to learn. It was good luck buddy. Experience truly is the best teacher you can have In 1996 From Wall Street to Main Street was born. It has been a news column, television segment and a radio show for many years. Over the years people have called and asked me so many different questions and they felt comfortable with that environment. With today’s technology we have Facebook and internet video. Upcoming “Financial Minutes” with helpful tips will be available through our Full Throttle partnership I take a very holistic approach when working with my clients. I have been privileged in my 30 year career to study and learn from the best and experienced with many clients what works and what does not work. So whether it is a client who may just be retiring, receiving a settlement from an accident or wanting to create income and protect their financial picture, I first want to know as much as I can about them individually and their family Some of my greatest and most heartfelt successes have been with people who were overwhelmed with investment talk or worse did not realize how much they were losing sitting in banks or what investments they actually owned. I tell my clients just bring in all your papers from your will to your investment statements, bank statements and tax returns and we will work in stages to make it easier for them. Creating income and securing your principal is critical in today’s rocky economy. The financial toll of not planning is not handled correctly can be devastating to an entire family. Florida is also a very different state and you need to know your financial rights if you have moved here from out of state When I get a call from a client saying I can’t thank you enough for all that you did and now I can have the income I wanted. I know my money is safe so I don’t worry. I can do all the extra things I wanted to do but was afraid to. I have had clients tell me they could now travel the US on their bikes, see their family in other states, and even just go out more often. That’s what it is all about, the most for your money and peace of mind. That is the most rewarding part of my job. A lot of us move to Florida to be able to ride year round. I am with you. I moved here in 2002 and have made the Tampa area my home. I love being a part of the biker community and wanted to make sure my years of experience is available to everyone that loves to ride as much as I do. There is very little I have not seen in the financial industry. Everyone needs someone to take a close look at what they have done in their financial house and where they want to be. Let my experience work for you. I can do a review so you understand what lies ahead for you financially and what you actually have. It makes life a lot easier and riding more enjoyable knowing you have taken care of your affairs. Well safe riding and put the financial worry behind you. Give me a call or look for me at upcoming Full Throttle events.

Hello again Michelle Osborne here. I have worked as a financial advisor over the years helping people achieve greater income to fulfill their dreams. I’ve had clients have come to me confused and lost, not knowing where their money is or what it is earning. I’ve been able to simplify their financial picture and give them more income. Most people do not realize the risks in the markets or low paying instruments such as bank CD’s. Even with savings accounts you are losing money everyday. If you’ve been using savings, investments or retirement accounts to live off or make major purchases we need to talk. I have been able to show people the use of leverage to increase their income. Most people are unaware of their options and what’s available to make their lives easier. You’ve worked too hard to earn what you have. Let me show you how to make the most of your money. Invest Safe / Ride Safe!

If anyone remembers me writing about red light cameras get mad about the people who put them up, the elected officials. One of the officials who owns a big camera co. recently admitted to giving out millions in payola to officials to put them up and keep them up in a lot of places around the country. Some of the officials took the cameras down. Maybe they got scared or maybe they were on the up and up. Some people put more up? Stopped a place in town last week making a right the camera flashed every two minutes in the mornings at noon and in the evenings, when people seemed to be in a hurry that's a lot of money at the end of the month. Be careful and take a hard look at your elected officials that put them up. I am still having a hard time getting over that wreck, it's been 7 months. I'm taking pills I guess I'm a druggy now. I don't like to take them but it is better than getting drunk. The two or three months I spent in the hospital in rehab a nurse that helped me a lot is I will never forget your help, you are in my thoughts and prayers. A bike never hurt me like this car wreck. I can't hardly get around anymore can't ride my bike anymore. A friend comes and takes me to swap meet some of the bike events and out to eat once in a while. If you see me out stop and say hello! As I'm writing this I have a couple of friends riding across the country on their BMW full dressed bikes. See you soon..

Hi All, I just settled down at my desk to jot down some of the things that happened over the last month and upcoming events too! Hope you didn't miss the Tampa Harley-Davidson Grill-Chill day it started out with a pancake breakfast put together by the Cigar City Hog Chapter, then around noon they had free hot dogs and beer for your to enjoyment. With the pancake breakfast only costing $3 you would have had a heck of a cheap day eating out!! PLUS to top it off there was a free bike wash. Now the best thing about that day was Full Throttle Christmas in July Toy Run and a Tampa Yankee baseball game which was also FREE and you even got fed dinner!! OH...did I share with you that I was there all playing the tunes for your enjoyment too?? Thanks go out to Harley-Davidson for hiring me to DJ for them. The next big event is going to be driving to Sturgis for the 75th anniversary at the Buffalo Chip where Full Throttle will be hosting two 10 class bike shows on August 2nd and 3rd. If you happen to be in Sturgis that weekend stop on by and have some fun with us. NEXT just right after we drive back to Florida we are hitting the road again - this time to Ohio for the Ohio Bike Builder Invitational and Motorcycle Expo at the QSL in Columbus August 14th - 16th. Yes Full Throttle is putting it all together up there too!! We are just not a magazine - we can do an awesome job putting together some great events! Well, it's gonna be a busy month and lots of miles....till next month - live life to the fullest and Party your a$$ off - Dew

Hello bikers, As we go through the dog days of summer we look to August as the start of the riding season as we kick it off with the Black Hills Rally in Sturgis SD. The first weekend of the rally you can find the Full Throttle crew at the world famous Buffalo Chip with two big ride in bike shows. Then we are off to Columbus OH for the 1st Annual Ohio Motorcycle Expo at Quaker Steak & Lube. Should be a great show so if you looking for a fun road trip make you plans to be there now. The month of July brought us our fair share of rain that play havoc with bike night and events all around the Tampa Bay area. Hopefully August will push the rainy season out. We have 3 great bike nights during the week starting on Tuesday night at Chix N Wings in Clearwater and Thursday Night out in Brandon at The Rack. In between on Wednesday

night is the Grand Daddy of bike nights at Quaker Steak and Lube. As weather gets better come on out and see us at the Full Throttle tent at the great bike nights. Bikers be sure and put on your riding calendars in October/ Starting October 9th thru 11th with Cotee River Bike Fest, Then October 14th to 18th I'll be at Full Moon Saloon on Main Street for Daytona Biketoberfest. The just 2 days later from October 21st to 25th its thunder Beach Fall Rally in Panama City Beach Fl. Make your plans today. Check out ads for all these great events in the August Issue of Florida Full Throttle Magazine or www.floridafullthrottle. com. Ride safe all. Charlie FT.

Little Johnny was sitting in class doing math problems when his teacher picked him to answer a question, “Johnny, if there were five birds sitting on a fence and you shot one with your gun, how many would be left?” “None,” replied Johnny, “cause the rest would fly away.” “Well, the answer is four,” said the teacher, “but I like the way you’re thinking.” Little Johnny says, “I have a question for you. If there were three women eating ice cream cones in a shop, one was licking her cone, the second was biting her cone and the third was sucking her cone, which one is married?” “Well,” said the teacher nervously, “I guess the one sucking the cone.” “No,” said Little Johnny, “the one with the wedding ring on her finger, but I like the way you’re thinking.”

Thunder Cartoon Strip

I want to start off by saying thank you to Tony Cianci and Rhett and Fran Haasch for putting this build in the hands of Low Life Industries, Inc. I have much appreciation for what both of them and their companies do for the biker community. It’s an honor for them to trust me with this project! The idea for this build all started several months ago at a Quaker Steak bike night, when I joked with Tony about doing a Full Throttle Magazine custom bagger. To my surprise, I received a call from him 3 weeks later to tell me he couldn’t stop thinking about the idea of doing a custom bagger. He discussed the idea with Rhett and Fran Haasch and they decided it would be a fun project to do together. I joined in their excitement and asked Tony what they were looking for. His reply was, “We want a 30” front wheel, we want to help build it, and we want it to be BAD ASS. By the way, we don’t have a bike we are willing to use for this so you have to go find us one.” The next thing I know, the call was over and I had a lot of work in front of me to do. I had just committed to finding a bike, bringing in a ton of parts, stripping a bike down to the frame, raking the neck to fit a monstrous 30” wheel, putting it all back together with new parts and meeting a dead line. All of this fit inside of my tight schedule was going to be tough, so I had to start looking for resources FAST!! The first thing I did was call by buddy Eric Warren of Eric Warren Artistry. He’s a former custom bike builder who focuses strictly on doing custom paint work now. At least he would understand how much I had just taken on in ad-

dition to my normal crazy schedule. To my relief, he jumped on board right away as soon as he heard the build out was for Tony and Full Throttle Magazine and Fran Haasch (although I like to think it’s just because he likes me so much as a friend.. :-) The next task was to find a bike, which I knew I could handle. However, now I needed a ton of aftermarket parts including a big 30” wheel set up. Since this was for Tony and Fran I went straight to the top parts manufactures out there. SMT Machining hooked us up right away with the wheel we needed along with a ton of other parts to replace the stock ones. Mark Evans from American Suspension was next to kick in and supplied us with the rake kit and front end we needed. My next call was to my good friend and customization expert, Justin O’Neil of InFocus Mobile. He immediately agreed to supply us with some sick custom body work so that we could install larger speakers on the bike. He also sent me some parts I was going to need for the custom air ride we were going to install. This left me needing one final piece to the puzzle…..MUSIC!! I had a contact at Wet Sounds, one of the sickest brands in marine audio, and had they have the perfect products to make this bike loud!! Richard Young loved the idea of being a part of the build and after a couple of internal calls we had some audio sent our way. The stripping down and tedious prep work has already started and I can’t wait to share the updates as this project moves along!! Thanks again to Full Throttle Magazine and Fran Haasch for choosing Low Life Industries, Inc. and look forward to standing next to you when we unveil this thing to the crowd at the Cottee River Bike Fest in October!!!
