David Always Knew...

...that Sporties were cool.

I'll be back on Sunday to capture some more.

This one hands down is my fav thus far, but they'll be plenty more. We'll see if I change my mind.




The red tomato with the white stripe. Some of the older viewers will get that.

The Sun Always Shines Inside At GNRS...

...well, during "load-in" anyway. I've been trying for some time to snap a picture of Rollin Bones's gas tank that captures the amazing paint. Yesterday at load in for the show I think I finally got one.

Still workin' on new designs...

Evel Tribute.

Betty & The So-Cal Sunset This Evening.

The German...

...an amazing short film with cool digitized aerial combat scenes, some interesting facts about WWII, and a twist ending. I doubt you'll be disappointed.

Workin' on a logo...

...for some sticker, tee, and hat designs I've been wanting to do for some time.

Stay tuned.

For Marshall, I had forgotten this song...

...and how much I dug it as a kid.

BREAKIN' THE LAW! BREAKIN' THE LAAAW! BREAKIN' THE LAW! BREAKIN' THE LAAAW!

DAMN, these are creepy! Special effects makeup artist Kevin Kirkpatrick made these prosthetic models of Beavis and Butt-Head to show what the cartoon legends would look like in real life.

"Sportsters" must be cool....

...Shaggy rides one.

One year ago today we lost a legend.

Don Kirshner (April 17, 1934 – January 17, 2011), known as "The Man With the Golden Ear", was an American song publisher and rock producer who is best known for managing songwriting talent as well as successful pop groups, such as The Monkeys, The Archie's, and Kansas.
Long before MTV, to see music on TV we had to wait for every other weekend to watch Don Kirshner's Rock Concert. Each week he featured live performances of acts such as:
R.I.P Don, we miss you!

Started 2012 Off Good and Proper

After takin' the Christmas decos down, and getting them packed away, I headed out to the shop to perform some long overdo P.M. on both bikes, and even got a little asphalt time in on both.

I know I'm probably preachin' to the choir here, but it still blows my mind how even just the shortest ride can relieve all the stress, and tension of everyday bullshit. I wish I could have just kept going, but I'm thankful I was able to get out....even if only for a short while.

Happy New Year!

Nothing great in the world has ever been performed without passion. So, for the New Year, I wish you life full of passion!
