Vlogger sharing observations on motorcycling, culture, and life in general, just an Old Hippie Biker in his golden years. I am not here to fix you, your motorcycle, I tend to destroy more then I can repair, I am just an old man rambling on about the road, motorcycling, culture, sub cultures, and/or no culture at all with small sprinkles about my faith. It\\\'s been a long journey so far, a strange trip it\\\'s been, SUBSCRIBE to join me as my journey continues. So I ask, “What\\\'s your road, man? - holyboy road, madman road, rainbow road, guppy road, any road. It\\\'s an anywhere road for anybody anyhow - Jack Kerouac On FB https://www.facebook.com/HippieBikertheSolivagant Support Gear @ https://shop.spreadshirt.com/hippie-biker-the-solivagant "But seek first the kingdom [of God] and his righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides. Do not worry about tomorrow; tomorrow will take care of itself. Sufficient for a day is its own evil. - Jesus the Christ (Matt 6:33-34)

Nikola Tesla, one of history's most remarkable inventors and visionaries, was born on July 10, 1856, in Smiljan, which was then part of the Austrian Empire and is now located in Croatia. He is best known for his pioneering work in electrical engineering and his contributions to the development of alternating current (AC) power systems. Tesla's early education took place in Croatia and Austria, but his real journey began when he moved to the United States in 1884 to work with the renowned inventor and businessman, Thomas Edison. While Edison focused on direct current (DC) power systems, Tesla believed that alternating current would be more efficient and practical for widespread electrical distribution. This disagreement led to the "War of Currents," where Tesla's AC system eventually prevailed as the superior technology for transmitting electricity over long distances. Among Tesla's most significant achievements is the invention of the induction motor, a groundbreaking technology that enabled the practical use of AC power in motors and machines. His AC motor design became the foundation for modern electric power generation and distribution systems, revolutionizing the world and powering the Second Industrial Revolution. Tesla's genius was not confined to electrical engineering alone. He had a vivid imagination and a deep understanding of electromagnetism. Throughout his career, he filed numerous patents and developed a range of innovative devices, including the Tesla coil, which is still used today in various applications, such as radio technology and high-voltage transformers. Beyond his scientific accomplishments, Tesla was an enigmatic figure known for his eccentric behavior and reclusive lifestyle. He had a photographic memory and a unique ability to visualize and design complex inventions entirely in his mind. Tesla was also fascinated by the concept of wireless communication and envisioned a global wireless communication system, a concept that bears striking similarities to the modern internet and Wi-Fi. Unfortunately, despite his brilliance, Tesla struggled with financial difficulties and often faced challenges in securing support for his ambitious projects. As a result, some of his ideas and inventions remained unrealized or were overshadowed by others who took advantage of his work. In his later years, Tesla's contributions to science and technology were recognized, and he received various accolades and honors. However, he spent his final years in relative obscurity and poverty. Nikola Tesla passed away on January 7, 1943, in New York City, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire scientists, engineers, and inventors to this day. His ideas and inventions have shaped the modern world and remain a testament to the power of human ingenuity and curiosity.
