Davenport part 1
Wubbzey and I were both in Davenport. He was just arriving as I was leaving (I had a prior engagement on Sat. I couldn't get out of). However, we both had an amazing time. Next year we're both goin' for the full weekend. Too much fun, too much cool stuff and too many cool people to not make it back. Put it on your calendar as a "not-to-miss" event. This is just a sample of some treasures, more to come....
Beauty and the beastly
Our buddy Hammer shows up with this slick wishbone frame wrapped up like some secret treasure. It's freshly coated in a deep, beautiful blue. Molded and georgous. Wubbzey says were gonna put this back together for an old friend of his. Pan motor, springer.....This is gonna be one great looking "BONESHAKER."
AND....
they don't call him the butcher for nothin'...
We bring in one beautiful bike to assemble and Wubbzey shows up with an old, pan shovel to tear apart.
Almost brings a tear to your eye......
NAAHHH! CHOP 'EM ALL!!!

Where's our Helmet
Our resident old-timer, Helmet, has gone missing. This is the only photo I've got (he's on the left). This was taken in the mid 60"s...
HELMET...WHERE ARE YOU?

Blue Eyed Devil - Version 2.0
Our man Tony blasted up to Chicago last weekend to dodge potholes and split lanes with the Bravetown crew. There's something about pipes echoing off skyscrapers that can't be beat. Anyway, he's such a nice gentleman, he fabbed up a longer fender, added a bitch seat and a sissy bar, just to haul his ol' lady around the Windy City. He's such a nice guy, and, she's a gem of a gal to hump that fender without complaint.
Heres a couple completed shots and a video our man Rich Phillips shot one night while Tony was contemplating the necessity of actually running a brake light. Enjoy the soundtrack. That's Tony singing and playin' guitar in his band "SparkThugs" on the video soundtrack.
