Saturday shop day!

 Travis baggin some airtime.
 This little bike has been in my family for 42 years and hauled people around drunk for years, here is one more.
 Trav and I put up a entertainment center , yep, thats right DVD/VCR combo, no big deal.
 This thing is now wall art... well until some one ask's "does that thing really run"?  I'll take it down and ride it.

Awning for grease bus.

 Made this awning frame for grease bus  http://www.greasebus.com/  Not sure what to use for the top just yet .
Forget ladders , get a flat bed.

Harley update.

 Made a bracket and re-located the coils under the tank. Coils were sticking out off the side of the engine.
 Took this pic right before I sanded the chrome off the headlight, got a little sidetracked.

Sick little cardboard oil tank mock up. Oh and I mounted the gas new tank, its solid.

Jordan's creek

Me and my bike tried to slide off the hill.


Little pile up on the trail.
Some of the toughest trails yet. Slippery leaf covered trails with frigen water falls, soft shoulders , cliffs , fallen trees, and bear den's. I didn't take to many pic's because we spent most of our day getting unstuck, sweating our asses off , loosing it, throwing helmets, kick starting the bikes, putting chains back on and picking our bikes up. Then the trail just ended so we had to turn back and do it all over . But at the end of the day we were all pretty stoked that we made it out. I'll do it again.

                                           Joe carlino moved in !
                                           I moved up to the front , better lighting, better ventilation and I have a snake constantly threatening me.... nice!

catching up.

 Was low on vegi fuel for my truck after the holiday driving so I ran around town and found about 50 gal. That should be enough for january.
 Made a new headlight mount for kyles harley,

Got this old GM spot light from my dad around x mas, I think it will look real nice on my bike.

Hangover scramble













The hangover scramble is a race on jan 1st at 8 am , sign ups at 7am. We stayed up late, drank 15 beers and lit some fireworks. Went to bed for a couple hours and got up at 6am. It was brutal but we did it. The layout is see how many times you can lap the track in a hour, yeah ...going as fast as you can hungover for a hour. I was able to do 14 laps.
