This little Ironhead was cool

This white Ironhead was built by Justin G. which most of you know as "tha knucklehead hippy dude from West Virginia" or if your a Haint you may know him as "Chauncey's brother" from the Smokeout. His Knuck is in the background.

So...I saw the "Worlds Most Expensive Boat Anchor" this weekend!!

This boat anchor is complete with the "Worlds FIRST 30" wheel" air ride font and rear, and a candy paint job, just to name a few of its options.It brought home 3rd place at the Easyriders Invitational, the builders looked a little bummed. It did have some trick fab work!

I am ready for Spring!!!

Photo Shoot

So we hung out at the show all day today, kinda boring. I did get a lot of positive feedback about the bike and a few guys wanting to buy some of my bars! Michael Lichter shot the bike tonight for Easyrider, very cool experience.These pics are from my cell phone so they aren't that great, the batteries died in my camera like 10min. before the shoot. The awards for my class is tommorrow around 5ish I think, I will try to post and let you guys know what it is. Thanks for giving a shit!!

Settin' up

So we get everything fabbed and painted just in time to have 3hrs. to get everything set up before the gates open. I was super nervous about the whole display and what not coming together smoothly, I'm totally out of my comfort zone at this level. So I get checked in and start to set up, roll the bike on the carpet, and Dave Nichols from Easyrider comes up and ask if it would be ok if they shot it for the magazine...The stress shell cracked soon after and now I'm HERE TO PARTY!!!

Waking up in Columbus...

So we got to Columbus this morning around 3a.m. Got settled in at the hotel and crashed...Got up a little after 7 and went on a citywide search for a Lowes home improvement store. Bought up a few painting supplies and a coupla pieces of wood, and came back to the warm and cosy hotel/workshop to finish making the display for the show. For all of you that know me well, you know that I like to do everything last minute. I utilized the hotel accommodations like the sawhorse/suitcase rack and the paint table/upside down drawer.

Slay the Giants!!!

Our boy Michael is in Columbus Ohio right now setting up his display at the Easyriders show for the new bike he built. He is up for Best of Show honors against some heavy weights from all over the country. I am fucking proud of him. Win or loose. He built this bike on a small budget in an opened door shed and sometimes his living room with little to no help. He is living his dream and taking on the Goliaths of the bike world. Give em Hell Michael!
