Holiday Gift N ot sure what to get that special motorcycle enthusiast in your life this holiday season? Thunder Roads Colorado has a few ideas that just might fit the bill; give something that will make them wish riding season was here already. Motorcycle Helmet Cover and Accessories These helmet covers are sure to get you noticed on the road. Iron Horse Helmet have lots of products that are sure to please any biker in your life, but the handmade helmet covers are what caught our attention. They have many options, but some of our favorites are the Mammal, and “Yellow (a take on a popular animated character from the movies) Motorcycle options. They are kept in place by elastic that is stitched in the bottom of the cover. They also have motorcycle helmet pigtails, mow hawks and printed visor covers. Check out all their items available at http://www.ironhorsehelmets.com/ Motorcycle Dolly We have all seen the YouTube videos of the motorcycle dollies. Did you know that you can purchase one at your local Harbor Freight store? You can pick one up for less than one hundred dollars that can handle up to a 1,250 pound motorcycle. It sits very low to the ground to help prevent against tipping. This dolly gives you the option to roll your bike around in the garage for the winter or any other time of the year. Plus they often send 20% off coupons out in the mail. 12 Thunder Roads Magazine® Colorado Motorcycle Chock If you want to spend less than $50, Harbor Freight also carries a nice front wheel chock that can be attached to your trailer or garage floor and the chock will hold your cruiser upright. Just ride your bike onto the chock. There are several different sizes and styles to fit sports bikes, dirt bikes, cruisers, etc. These are great if your bike does not have a center stand. A definite benefit is the amazing amount of space you save by bringing that motorcycle upright, and not leaning it over on a side kickstand. An affordable and helpful gift for that motorcycle lover. Gift Certificates and Gift Cards Do not know the size, or cannot afford what they really want? How about a gift certificate or a gift card to help them out along the way to that bigger item they want?
