Wow, It’s been a wild week. We are all about riding free, riding cool bikes and featuring the best builders in the world. What could go wrong, right? Everything can go wrong, but then again the worst can work out to be the best. I know I’m not making much sense, but there’s something in the news that illustrates where I’m going. For over a decade rich folks have been telling us we’re doomed if we keep using fossil fuels, even though it didn’t make any sense. Folks fell for it. Some folks were intimidated, bullied and many were threatened. I knew it was all bullshit, but folks were afraid to talk about it. Suddenly Trump becomes President and we have some honesty with the science. As you will see, the whole doomsday enchilada blew up to the tune of trillions. Hang on for the report. It’s okay to ride V-Twins once more… Let’s hit the news: The News was provided by the Bikernet Team including: Wayfarer, the Redhead, Bob T.

ENDANGERMENT FINDING REPEALED– President Donald Trump and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin today announced that the EPA was repealing a rule known as the Endangerment Finding that seeks to limit carbon dioxide emissions from motor vehicles. This validates a decade of work by the CO2 Coalition and others to refute irrational regulation of a harmless gas necessary for life. The CO2 Coalition has worked tirelessly to provide the science, facts and data that were used to overturn this economically destructive regulation that was enacted on the basis of junk science and disinformation. Thousands of scientists and researchers stood with us for the truth. We believe EPA’s action – and other reforms of rules covering power plants – could ultimately end foolish public policy that has wastefully diverted trillions of dollars to address a manufactured climate emergency and away from efforts that could have otherwise benefited people. CO2 Coalition Statement on Repeal of Endangerment FindingStatement of Gregory WrightstoneExecutive Director, CO2 Coalition Re: Repeal of Endangerment Finding 2/12/26 The repeal of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Endangerment Finding by Administrator Lee Zeldin is cause for celebration. The basis of this wrongheaded climate regulation put ideology ahead of science. The rule has been an impediment to economic growth, a cause of rising energy costs and a destroyer of many thousands of jobs at power plants, coal mines and manufacturing facilities. Since the 2009 enactment of the Endangerment Finding, its scientific underpinnings have been found to be even weaker than previously believed and contradicted by empirical data, peer-reviewed studies and research. Relying on false computer models and pseudoscience, the Obama EPA erroneously claimed carbon dioxide and other so-called greenhouse gases threatened to overheat the Earth. The agency disregarded complexities of climate dynamics – from solar cycles to clouds to ocean currents. Also ignored were a mountain of real-world data accumulated over decades and centuries that disprove the finding that the plant food carbon dioxide is a pollutant. Rather than an Earth spiraling into man-made climate crises, the facts reveal that ecosystems are thriving and humanity is benefiting from modest warming and more CO2. Forests are expanding, deserts are shrinking, agricultural productivity is expanding and drought is declining. In short, there is no climate crisis and carbon dioxide is a beneficial gas necessary for life. –CO2 Coalition EASYRIDERS RETURNS– Gday Bandit, great news for easy rider…u r steering the mag back into greatness I am sure.
