Gonna go back a bit in time as I've been lazy and let Instagram take over my blog. easy, but lazy.
Got a buncha pix of all kinds that will kind of sum up the past couple months.

Sherri with my sporty looking rather sporty herself. |
|
Sherri with Damon Yorks triumph! |
|
Now we are off to Portland for the One show, lots of killer stuff. Its a great example of the diversity that is slowly taking over what has been chopper only for a long time. |
|
My sporty with Brawny Built's sporty with the Icon display in Portland, the Icon guys are killer, they "Get it" the need to ride hard and fast without having to conform o some sort of stereotypical role in the motorcycle world, |
|
but yes, Choppers, both of these owned by Mark Drews. the Triumph is rad, but not really my cup of tea, the Flathead on the other hand is a fucking masterpiece. i cant wait to shoot it. so simple yet so mind blowing, |
|
Icon Headquarters in PDX, a small company of 14 guys doin it all in house from design to marketing to cutting up brand new motorcycles. Good fuckin guys with a quality product. |
|
the Iron Lung. Killer fuck you attitude bike, I love it. |
|
Another of the Iron Lung. |
|
random glory |
|
More random glory and an epic ass. |
|
absolute truth. especially when it comes to building, racing or crashing motorcycles. |

The past 6 months have been chaos.
I relaunched my website making a ton of products I have been making actually available. Did the whole website myself and it was time consuming to say the least. I now have alot more items available and many more coming. We have streamlined the process and now i have an honest to god employee running the back end of things so i can actually get parts made. Oh yeah and on November first i married her...
best thing I ever did. Period.
Then three weeks later I went to japan with the Steel Shoe for Mooneyes Yokohama HRCS, sucked leaving her on Thanksgiving day, but it just made me happier to come home.

Badass K Model Dragbike, ended up being my pick of the show! |
|
Knuckles fuckin everywhere |

gold and white, killer shovel |
Since being back in town i have been super busy, I never get a chance to ride anywhere. i have realized this past week as I haven't needed my truck, it hasn't been raining and my TL1000s is back running that no matter how shitty i might feel, or whatever anxiety attack I might be having over something so stupid, all it takes is for me to ride my bike somewhere, ANYWHERE. All of a sudden I feel better again. I'm going to put the generator back in my panhead this week too so I can start riding that again on a regular basis. It also looks like the paperwork will finally be done on my turbo bike as well, so no matter what, whenever i need to, i can get on two wheels and get back to myself.
i get fed up with all of it, people, the motorcycle industry, etc, but what it comes down to, no matter how fed up I am with whatever is going on around me, all i have to do is get on a bike and all of a sudden none of it matters.
