MONDO OVERNIGHTER
About 12 years back I was riding up to Sturgis from LA in company with Billy Lane on his UL Harley with an invitation to stay in Vegas overnight at the house of Mondo Porras, the world famous bike builder renowned for his extremely over length springer forks.
Well it was a very hot summer’s day as we rode through the Mojave Desert and on the big rise leading up to Vegas Billy’s bike overheated a couple of times and we were forced to stop to let it cool down a bit. Of course, as it cooled, we overheated more and more. Finally rolling into Mondo’s we were welcomed with an icy cold Corona and the sanctuary of his air-conditioned lounge room.
