Mocking up the ol gas tank, shovel, evo, iron, blah blah blah...

So we got a bit excited about the new gas tank and decided to have a little mock up party with just the two of us.  Also, here is sneak peek at what is happening to the suspension sport... Hey, it kept us entertained for a couple of hours and then we cleaned the shop...

Reliable Sauce in Charm City.

Baltimore, Charm City was full of life, fights, and your average deindustrialized urban decay.  The Dice release party was awesome and cold.  As the night ventured on we got to see Condit give GSP a beating he wont soon forget.  Back home now to sleep off the trip, work, and build for spring 2013!

 When in town check out 16Tons for cool stuff like clothes for those of you who wear them and prints like these.

There was some blood.

score.

Once again, the Charlotte Swap

Rain, says it all.

These days we bumming on rain and lazy days...motivation where are you...

Fücker Chopper Fest, July 14.

So it will be nice to see all these Scandinavian knuckles and pans that just seem to be laying around for the taking like ironheads back home.  Been hanging out in Gothenburg, Sweden the last few days and already seeing the evidence of an upcoming swap/fest, that being 2 xs650s (maybe one was a triumph), didn't get a good look as they blew past us walking over a bridge.  It will be exciting stuff nonetheless. PICS to come...

summer...

So digging around the the garage of your grandparents house has its rewards. My uncle, as a 15 year old kid, had this nice helmet back in the 70s for to go with his moped.  I am hoping he is willing to let go of it and it will came back to the US of A.

It's a Triumph (British for non-Harley).

Born Free 4

So one man committed his summer to the great western state of California, one way ticket style, maybe buy an ironhead and ride back, maybe never come back, maybe fly back and by an iron here so that he can hang with us again and do some end of summer beach/mountain rides...miss you! Oh, and while you were gone we went to danberry/danbury...

A motorcycle accident at the Rockingham Dragway has left one person dead and another hospitalized.

Authorities are still investigating the details behind the crash, which occurred around 2 a.m. Friday morning.

According to Richmond County Sheriff James Clemmons Jr., a reconstruction team, comprised of both NC Highway Patrol and city police, has been called in to determine just what caused the accident.

Police have identified the victims as 27-year-old Michael Andrew Roberts of St. Petersburg, Fla., and Thomas M. Lipka of Lancaster, Penn. Police said Roberts was pronounced dead at the scene, and Lipka was airlifted to Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte. According to Detective Jeff Millen of the Sheriff’s Office, Lipka remained in intensive care late Friday, and was expected to recover from the accident.

Sheriff Clemmons said the two men were at the dragway for this weekend’s 13th annual Smoke Out bike rally, which runs Friday and Saturday.

“People camp out early and come to the track,” Clemmons said. “They started coming in (Thursday) and setting up campsites.”

Detective Jay Childers of the Sheriff’s Office said Roberts and Lipka were riding together on the same motorcycle on the dragway when the accident occurred.

“It was dark, and they were coming up the drag strip the wrong way,” Childers said. “They lost control at the start/finish line and slid into a building.”
