Gangster Shit...

Me and the kiddos Being Gangster as always!
New set of pegs. Thought the would look killer with all the gold leaf.
My new Liner in my 61 Crown pretty awesome!

Timebomb Tuesday...

I just found this, had to share pretty much one of my favs . Enjoy!

timebomb Tuesday...

If you have ever seen them. You would know why people love them. R.I.P Paul Gray! Enjoy

Kingdom Of Sorrow...

Behind The Blackest Tears came out a couple of weeks ago. Their last album was good, but after how long they worked on it, it had a lackluster finish. This album sounds a lot tighter, heavier and the vocals seem to have had more thought behind them, mixing Jamey and Kirk's styles. Jamey was even quoted saying that he felt he gave this album his all and changed his own style to make something new.

The Little Things...

Wanted to add a little something without going overboard. I started going over my pecking list in my head and I think I'll have it pretty well buttoned up after Friday.

Now if Christian will get me my seat back.

So damn close...

Belt drive is on...and yes, I switched to an open belt since I already had one and decided on kick-only at the last minute, jockey clutch is set up (missing the bracket in the pic), front calipers are mounted and I started the wiring. Very little left to do, but with even less time to do it. It'll fire up soon though.

Just a few from the Smoke Out East...

Bean're's mini Bike. Love that Dude.
This Kid came to our campsite just to have a couple beers. We ripped two porta potty doors off. little Rope and a suspension bike, we were sledding. He was tough as nails and super cool for giving us a good show.


Doesn't get much better!

Home...

Just got home from the Smoke Out East. Good times indeed. I will post some pics as soon as i come out of my Zombie state. Cheers!

100 years...

My dad sent me one of his chain emails yesterday that proved to be informative.

Apparently heroin was legal in 1910 and sold over the counter. It was made by Bayer.

It's a good thing it's illegal now. The Haints wouldn't get ANYTHING done.

Thanks Kimbo...

Kim Boyle from Bench*Mark sent me a tumbled version of their points cover. I'm running their kicker pedal in tumbled finish as well.

Go to the Bench*Mark link on my sidebar for more info on their products and ramblings on their blog.

Them 'ol Duke boys...

Should've chosen Sublime Green instead of Hugger Orange.

Smoke Out...

See you in Rockingham!

Mad as shit...

I'm going to be finishing my bike this weekend while everyone is at the Smoke Out. Dammit.

Oh well...here is a bike that Danny Franssen built that looks just right (even though it's an Evo). It was in a thread on the JJ that popped up yesterday and I had to take it. It's just clean.

Me love you long...

Read the Horse and ran across this. "5 dollars me love you long me love you hard."

New Danzig...

Out today...and Glenn delivers!

Playing with Photoshop...

Nixon gave some suggestions on Shoppin', but I only have Elements, so I can't go that far. I did play some and found some cool stuff.

I was digging around...

Trying to find pics of kooky little bikes for Josh to look at for the 350 rebuild and I remember stealing this from the Wrenchmonkees site. What a neat little scoot.

Timebomb Tuesday...

These Boys are playing the Smokeout. I have seen them a handful of times, always a good show. Enjoy!

You can't see me

Little taste...

The Allman Joys...

Dammit...

MOCK UP EVERYTHING BEFORE YOU SEND IT OFF FOR PAINT/POWDER! I know that, but I still rush through shit.

I went to pick up the primary from the powder coater the other day and realized that I have work to do...the damn starter bolt hole has been boogered up by some retard that would rather do a hack shit job than do something right. Lazy bastard.

Powder Coating...

Got all my stuff back from Millers Powdercoating. They hit a homerun as always. Seth is lacing and trueing tonight. Tomorrow I will put the front end together. Little shake down run this weekend. Then Smokeout bound next week. Can't fucking wait.

Hump Day...

Timebomb Tuesday...

Music has played a big role in my life. So i have decided to post some every tuesday. Start out with my favorite band Lucero. if you haven't heard them check them out. Cool video with some cool shots. Enjoy!

Getting older...

I'll be 30 this Saturday. A 30 year old dad...something that just kind of crept up on me without me thinking much about it. Damn. Have I really accomplished anything? Have I done anything with myself? I have accumulated a bunch of crap, had some good times, made a couple of cool things and drank more beers than probably any man should, but have I done anything that would make my kids proud to call me dad if I were to die today?

Probably not...and I'll just become more of an asshole as I get older.

If you're around town, come celebrate with me at the Firkin & Crown Pub on Saturday night. I'll be ringing in my old age with the nectar of the Gods and some alcohol-fueled billiards.

Pancake wrapped sausages...mmmm...

I was going to post something about this, but Eric beat me to it...so here's some chocolate chip delights to make up for it.

R.I.P Jimmy Dean...

Jimmy Dean dies at 81 at the dinner table. Don't worry he sold the company to Sara Lee in 1984 for some stupid amount of money. So you can still get your Pancake covered sausage at you local market.

The Time Bomb...

I figured I would show you guys my bike, so you get an idea of what I am about. Super excited to see the shovel done J has alot of time and labor in that thing.

Final Assembly...

I can taste it now. I had to use an old primary to line the drivetrain up since mine is still at the powder coater. I still have to get the foot clutch setup done, wire it, plumb it and go over everything once more...then I get to ride it.

Playing with ideas...

Since I did halfway alright at striping, I think I'm going to try some lettering on the caps (the blue ones were used just to get an idea).

Drive By Truckers...

Great video at a historic Athens venue.

It begins...

Tear.....

So I am cleaning the Garage up this weekend and had to move the Triumph. My soul dies just a little bit everytime I move it. I am sure there are some of you who do the same thing. We always talk about big plans then six months rolls by and nothing has been done.

Striping mayhem III...

I have to admit to using tape, but it's my first time actually striping on a bike.

Badass commercial...

Stolen pic Friday...Japan-style 2...

Someone requested pics of this bike on the JJ. I found them in another thread for him and decided that they deserved being reposted on Stolen pic Friday. Sharp, simple, effective bike. No fancy fab work, no flashy paint, no crazy aftermarket parts. Although I'm not much for the seat, overall it's a good execution.

And anxiety has struck in a hard way. I start final assembly on the Shovel this weekend...
