Davenport!!!!!! This weekend. Vintage Races.
Nothing is better than watching an early 1920's Harley racing on a dirt track in Davenport. Kinda brings you back to a certain time, like you could've actually have been there. Last year gotta outa hand, drinking, fightin, gettin kicked outa the bar, Scotts bruised ass from his chain,THE MOOSE, Pill poppin one legged hillbillys, and most of all..... the elusive Mighty Missisippi River Rats. I know we aint gonna ever top it but I cant wait to get some beers in my belly, some dirt in my eyes and another Davenport notch into my belt. Hope to see some of you there!!!!!!! Have a safe ride- Chris

GREAT BIKE, AND GREAT PAINT!
I RAN ACROSS THIS BIKE A FEW YEARS BACK IN DICE OR SOME MAG, CAN'T QUITE REMEMBER WHERE. ANYWHO, BACK THEN I REALLY DUG IT AND IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS IN BARE METAL AT THE TIME TOO, WHICH IS ANOTHER THING I'M A HUGE FAN OF. RAW MAKES YOU LOOK AT THE SHAPE AND FORM AS OPPOSED TO A FLASHY PAINT JOB.BUT SEEING IT PAINT AND HAVING DONE IT IN AN UNUSUAL WAY MAKES ME LOVE IT EVEN MORE. AND THE BARS ARE EXCELLENT! HARD TO BE ORIGINAL THESE DAYS BUT I'D SAY THAT THIS IS EXACTLY THAT.
PURE SWEETNESS-
PURE SWEETNESS-
If your in the Northern IL area.....

More Pics from the HD Museum
There wasnt too much "Chopper" stuff there. But, I always like seeing bikes that I have seen on TV, in person. I hated this bike when Jesse James built it. Seeing it up close gave me a different appreciation. All his brackets, and attention to detail definetly made me kinda dig it. Theres still things I would change, but everyone has different tastes.

The Factory's Museum.
Was up in Milwaukee this past weekend with some time to kill so me and my Ladyfriend headed over to the HD Museum. I was actually impressed with what they did. Oh, and yes those are the actual miles on that original untouched Knucklehead,,,,fuckin amazing. Some guy there said 98% of the bikes they have run. Definetly worth the $16 to get in. Heres some pics for now. Stay tuned for more!

ASSHOLES SHOULDN'T BE SUCH ASSHOLES, BUT ENTERTAINING THINGS LIKE THIS WOULDN'T HAPPEN IF THERE WEREN'T-
Ride to Farm and Fleet..............
Can’t live with ‘em
And somehow you can’t ever live without
Can’t understand ‘em
I’ve made a sad one laugh
And I’ve made a good one cry
I’ve made on scream my name to the good lord by and by
I’ve made ‘em go insane and I’ve made ‘em go away
Just can’t ever seem to make one stay
they’re all crazy
Some hide it well and some just let it show
Take it from me
I’ve been around enough of them to know
