Alt Bike Culture - Pepper

Can y'all explain the origin for me?

Umm, I can't. I thought it was a condiment...

Is there a context?

code call for cops, originated 5 years ago at zoobomb. security is "salt", fire dept is "hot pepper", ambulance is "your best friend", the list goes on.

AH HA!

That explains your signature :D .

Hmm...and I was certain Angie Dickinson was Pepper. Pepper Anderson, was it?

Hey, not to go too far aside, but I'm still trying to figure where I put pics of Tempest, my Rollfast, as I get to the fairing work? I'm not cutting it up, just customizing for a motorcycle look with a really bold, bright color scheme, full lighting and signals and hopefully a brake sensor, 12V system with LED lighting and my old Delco stereo, rechargable. The saddlebags were attached with a custom frame welded and bent by a friend in the farm shop he works in.

It's not too heavy for a Clyde like me and I intend to keep it that way.

It's in the avatar BTW.

Didn't you have a separate thread for Tempest already?

Whenever I hear the word pepper I think of this:

On 6-6-66
I was little I didn't know sh*t
and on 7-7-77
eleven years later still don't know any better
by 8-8-88
it's way too late for me to change
and by 9-9-99
I hope I'm sittin' on the back porch drinkin' red wine
singin' Ohhhhhh
French Fries with Pepper!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh
French Fries with Pepper!

Good question! Think I've brought it up 2-3 (billion) times but I don't think I've actually started it in earnest except for the Windows Live Spaces photo essay I occasionally update.

May not matter unless I can put the seat tube back together with the crank housing! The LBS mentioned something and I didn't really get much except the seat was broken (I thought) and two daze later some guy I don't even know pointed it out (errkk!) There is no Monark now--I sold it back to the previous owner at his request when he decided he wanted it back after all, and it was sold out from under him when he went to his dad's funeral and I got it at the local auction. I only asked for the $20 I spent to get it as it would've been gone otherwise and I didn't know he was coming back at the time, and he said that was fair. He and I are both serious about our bikes and he said he knew it was in a good place when we figured it out. I gave him the basket back gratis, it was sold separately and I almost missed it for $5.

I've become attached to this poor bike big time, it's been extremely fun for me--more fun than any bike I've ever owned.

I wasn't born on 6-6-66, but on 6-26-66
The Beatles had the #1 hit!

Lite soy sauce, 57 or ketchup for me!

I liked the way that Mayan rubbed pepper on his dick in Apocalypto. Funny as hell.

Hmm--whenever I hear the word pepper, I immediately think:

Some will die in hot pursuit in fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit while sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalance, coming down the mountain.

The only one I KNOW, so I guess by default.

I SLAY with it in karaoke and then also, "Standing Outside A Broken Phone Booth With Money In My Hand". I'm too goofy to do Beck's "Loser" though.

I sure like the covers they have though.
