Drove up to Brooklyn this past weekend for the 3rd annual Brooklyn Invitational Bike Show. It was a good time for sure, Bikes everywhere. The show inside packed some serious bad ass two wheel machines from classic choppers from builders like Aki Sakamotor to Walt Siegl's cafe styled 900ss Ducati. All the free beer you could handle and my personal favorite Stumptown cold brew coffee.
The streets were lined with equally as sick bikes from around the country that the cops didn't care for that much. So much in fact that they called 10 of NYPDs finest to say "hey, keep people off the street" All and all it was a great time. If you didn't go this year you must go next! hopefully next year ill make it via tha hawg.
Unfortunately i didn't take near as many pictures as i had planned.

Calm down Barney...
In life there are two types of people, one who is realistic and laid back and the other an uptight asshole. But there seems to be only one type of law officer.
So last night Johnny law thought that four friends pumping gas into a car, a bike, and a truck, drinking energy drinks, and talking about the night that was just had is suspicious behavior. The mug attempts to interact as a commoner, fail, asking, oh thats a neat truck, what year is that, and what kind of bike is that, type questions. Peppering the conversations, while using that one of a kind cops stare accusing you of everything under the sun, with questions like, "please tell me your just tired, because you just don't look right, you gotta be on something," and, "hey, how about YOU, your okay"?
And the night ends with cop pulling some plates (okay you had us there), accusing one of us of motorcycle theft, being on narcotics, and being drunk in public...while all along the suspicious behavior that started this whole fiasco was getting gas and four friends discussing how to get back on the highway, all the while SOBER and drug fucking free!

Its nice to see hard work actually result in something beautiful and worth while. Just one more step till its completely done, just have to wait for the new tank and fender to be painted before mounting them..Oh well, these old ones will get me through the weekend and then i can retire this awesome old tank back to the bookshelf.
Friday, Day One of Smokeout 12...

Last night we got 3 of 5 up and running strong, took a trip downtown to eat, and then out for a highway shake down, then slept...today, day one of smokeout...Morale has been shaken people are down and out but hopefully we make it after repairing a brakeline and ignoring minor oil leaks.
