Born Free 3


My gas tank took a slam the night before so i painted black at 4 am the day of the show. I'll post better pics later.


Max's VL pan was as smooth as they come. Bad picture, killer bike....i hear it may be for sale???


Kosuke of Sunrise Cycles dual front headed pan was so bitchin, one of my top picks for the show.


Dave Polgreens knuckle was a show stopper, so many cool little tricks. And what a nice dude, it was a pleasure meeting you man.

This year was a mind blower. The location, the amount of bikes, the
caliber of bikes, the positive vibes it all added up to an amazing day.
And there were so many people from all over place, it was rad to
finally put faces to names. I usually freak out in situations like this
but I don't think I've ever been so social in my life.  The Invited Builders
circle was on a whole other level.  Every bike was insane yet completely
different from each other. It was an honor just being able to participate
with these guys and when they called my name for third place in the
Builders Choice award for my Knucklehead, I was blown away. It made
the last 2 months of sleepless nights worth every minute. Thanks to every
person who looked past my primer paint and took a second look at my
bike, all the fellow Builders who just keep killing it, and a big thanks to
Mike and Grant for putting on a hell of a show.....................

good news or bad news?


Bad news...oil lines are dust. Gotta cut a couple of them back a hair and redo the flared ends.



Good news...the Pizza Hut by my house will deliver a pizza to my garage door at midnight.

Lookin' Back

Awhile back coming home from Jay's garage this song popped up on the ipod. It was good night of the same old bullshit that goes on their like any other random night of the week and this song just perfectly matched my mood at the time. So now when ever it pops up I think about the good times had in that garage. Or maybe I am just into bad rock n' roll? After all the filming and shooting that Michael Schmidt has been doing over there the theme might need to change to Hollywood Nights.



You hit the street, you feel them staring
You know they hate you you can feel their eyes a glarin'
Because you're different, because you're free
Because you're everything deep down they wish they could be

You're lookin back (lookin back) they're lookin back (lookin back)
Too many people lookin back
You're lookin back (lookin back) they're lookin back (lookin back)
Too many people lookin back

They watch the news, see young men dying
They watch them bleedin' and listen to them lyin'
And if they're normal if they can see
They just reach out and change the channel on the TV

You're lookin back (lookin back) they're lookin back (lookin back)
Too many people lookin back
You're lookin back (lookin back) they're lookin back (lookin back)
Too many people lookin back

When they could vote, and end the war
All lyrics www.allthelyrics.com
They're much too busy fittin' locks upon the back door
Give you a foxhole, a place to hide
Cause when the war come the cops'll be on their side


You're lookin back (lookin back) they're lookin back (lookin back)
Too many people lookin back
You're lookin back (lookin back) they're lookin back (lookin back)
Too many people lookin back
