Dapper.....

If there is anything I hold true to my heart it's a good friend.I'm a sucker and I still believe that a firm handshake and a look in the eye is enough to trust someone.I have I few friends that have never let me down..B.M and C.H are a couple...

My good friends Patti and Mike have mid-west values and heart,passion for each other as well as barbering.

They're from Milwaukee,moved out to Tucson and opened up a Barbershop a few years ago but,for what ever reason had to close up and then felt the need to come back to the heartland...This place was one of those,"why didn't I think of that?'' idea's.This shop had beer,a pool table,porno Mag's on the waiting table,shows around town and offered a great fucking haircut...They brought deadbolt to town! When's the last time your barber brought fucking deadbolt to your local punk rock lesbian bar?

They're back in Milwaukee,Tattooing and barbering...I hope one day their concept comes to life again in the midwestI spent the New Year with them listening to good music and losing my mind....

SHOPS 2.0

I EAT THIS STUFF UP LIKE CANDY-

AIN'T NO BELL MOTO......

.....LIKE ALL THE COOL KIDS HAVE ( ALTHOUGH I HAD ONE 15 YEARS AGO WHEN I RODE AROUND ON MY AWESOME HONDA ELITE AND PROBABLY THREW IT AWAY, GO FIGURE) BUT I'M FAIRLY CERTAIN I WON'T SEE ANOTHER ONE ANYTIME SOON. RAN ACROSS THIS 1990's NOS GEM AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS MARKED SMALL! HELL YEAH. FITS SNUG AND IS LIGHT.IT'S GOT THIS KOOKY VISOR THAT HAS A CENTER PIECE THAT POPS UP TO CATCH COOL AIR AND DIRECT IT INTO TO VENT HOLES. DIDN'T NEED ANOTHER HELMET, BUT AFTER #22 WHO CARES-

Scott H Fuckin Biram!!!!!!

On of my many highlights was seeing him in Chicago It was 100 degrees inside the venue, I think the A/C was broke or some shit. We walked into the heat wave and for some reason it just fit the mood. We almost pounded our boots through the floor, whiskey and beer flowed like water, and most of the night I dont remember thanks to a combination of pills and booze. Goddam Scott H Biram, you make me wanna break shit and punch people in the face.

Old Barn

This bike was at a little small town bike show this past summer. I remember getting really close just to admire and the smell of this bike was that of an old barn. Im sure theres some good stories behind this bike.

Uncle Paulies............

Me and my ol lady where heading down the road to make one more pitstop at a bar before heading home. Josh's bike was sitting outside Uncle Paulies Titty Bar so we popped in for a couple. Shirtless and Drunk......the way we all like Josh.

St. Louis

T&A

My roommate insists on painting our apartment.....I just don't understand why you would paint an apartment you're just renting and not buying. Then on top of that,when she comes home from work,I gotta hear about her day? Like she's my ol' lady or something?If I wanted an ol' lady, i'd get an ol' lady!.......So,I decided i'm going to fill all of her empty picture frames with cut out pictures from various old Easyriders,Outlaw biker and Biker magazine pictures. Really,I could give a shit but,I'm curious to see how long it takes her to figure out that all the frames are filled with trashy foxhunt pictures.....

This Weekend

Wicked Wheels Weekend 

January 8 & 9, 2011

At Timber Creek Best Western in Sandwich

Just off Route 34 between Sandwich & Plano

Presented by BMC

I like my legs clean shavin'

Progress has been slow this past week. Still waiting on parts, got a new dog that I gotta train etc etc. Hope to make my rear wheel spacers and motor mount spacer this weekend. Then its off to Bobby Marones for some welding. Cant wait till the first kick and a warm day arrives when I am cruising this bitch down the highway. Shaved the legs some weeks back and sent them off to the Vatos in town for some polishing. Looking forward to having a clean simple basic no thrills chop. Goin all black and chrome. Doing some chrome on the motor as well. Bring on Summer already!

Dreaming..........

it's the time of the year when my mind gets the best of me and I spend more time in the pub then being productive.I think about riding and how much longer i'll put up with bullshit winters and trade them for the Southwestern United states.I'm a few weeks away from having access to a garage that will have more room to tinker with my bike and a few weeks away from spending afternoons drinking beer into the early evening with friends in the shop.

There is a little place in Southern Az. called,The Shady Dell...it's a trailer park full of 1950's airstreams not to far from the Mexican border and not too far from Tombstone.I often find myself dreaming of settling for a simple life,being a small town barber,grilling everyday,drinking beer on my fake grass next to my lawn flamingos,shooting guns at nothing and not worrying about a goddamn thing but,only my bike my dogs and beer money.

There is something cathartic about the desert but there ain't no way to make enough money to live or afford expensive hobbies, unless you dip into a little illegal activity.This other photo is just outside of Vegas....115 degrees on the strip and 30 at the top of this Mountain...it's a perfect place to bury a dead hooker,nothing but Joshua trees for miles around....

I use to see this pan floating around the midwest,then I saw it on ebay...I wonder where its at now....

BANG CRASH

FOE AWHILE THERE, I HAD A HARD TIME KEEPING MY TOP TREE OUT OF THE FRONT OF MY TANK. I HAD 2 TANKS WITH THE SAME EXACT DENT. LAST TIME AROUND I SAID SCREW IT AND PAINTED RIGHT OVER IT. THIS TIME I DECIDED TO FIX IT.

WE TO SEE MY FRIENDS AT THE BODY SHOP TO SEE IF THEY HAD ONE OF THOSE FANCY SPOT WELDERS THAT YOU USE TO YANK OUT DENTS. NO LUCK. THEN I REALIZED I HAD EVERYTHING AT HOME ALREADY-
I NEVER KNEW WHAT THEY CALLED THOSE THINGS THAT YOU SLAM BACK TO PULL OUT DENT. FOUND OUT ITS A SLIDE HAMMER. I SLAPPED TOGETHER MY OWN IN ABOUT 10 MINUTES-
WELDED WASHERS ON THE END OF A SCRAP PIECE OF TUBE FOR THE SLIDE-
I JUST STUCK A PIECE OF TIG ROD ON THE DENT AND HAD AT IT-

PULLED IT OUT A LITTLE BIT AND FILLED THE REST WITH SOME SILICON BRONZE. THE REST CAN BE A SKIM OF THE OL BONDO-
GOOD ENOUGH-

VIVA KNIEVEL

Morrison Il.

Bobby and I got on the road pretty early to head out to Davenport this year.We're both pretty early risers so we figured,lets head out about 6am and get there when the swap opens,ain't that far and should get there before 10am.Well,we left at 6am but sure as shit didn't get to Iowa till 1pm and all that did was give me more time to kill a case of Hamms before the races.

About an hour into are trip well saw a guy on a Pan with his kid in a side car that was in need of help,he declined and we got on our way......not much farther after blasting down the interstate,my buddy says,''You got one bolt holding your trans in!''

Had I been riding with anyone else they wouldn't have noticed that shit and the result would have been a sonofabitch.We pulled over and a nice officer stopped to make sure our I.d's had looked good and then directed us to the town of Morrison Il. for a hardware store.

A guy named Hammy was more then willing to offer us some of his Busch light at 10am and lend a hand at his motorcycle shop but,who needs hammy when you got a leg.....Karma
