Time Traveling with Joe Hurst

No secret The South Bay connection is a hot topic for me. Moon and I share stories we've heard back and forth, stalk others on the internet like Irish Rich ect for more info. Chris's MC Art Blog is a great source as well. I'd also reference you to Gary's chopper handbook, which contains some incredible documentation on Dick, and the springer construction as well. Below are two really great photos of Joe Hurst with his "Chrome Frame Bike". Bought off his former partner in crime Dick Allen. Dick had this setup early on and eventually it made its way to Joe who managed to hold onto it over the decades. This bike is back together in mostly its original form as Joe had it years ago. Mucho Respect!

Below, Chrome frame while in Dick owned it.

You Rang??

I'd like to say I am sorry for such an absence on posting here, but I am not. I don't really think many people see it anyway. But I read back through it today and it made me feel good, so I want to start posting again. A lot of things have happened in the last year, and 2020 is turning out to be the worst year in history hahaha, so what better time to fire back up my little biker blog. So if anyone is out there, I'd like to get back to it. Below, A big boy named Tom and his swing arm custom cruiser. We should all aspire to be like Tom. Have a great weekend folks!!

Im Still Here

Been a minute since I posted anything. Here is a video I put together of a trip last weekend with some great guys and great bikes. Enjoy!

One Month Update

This Bike, and photo, are awesome. That is all.

Meet Me 2019

Turned out to be a great day. It was great to see friends in town, and some great stuff showed up at the swap. Duane and I have been talking about getting away from the nice little parking lot downtown and trying to grow this thing more and more. We shall see. Till next year! Here's some good shots from Jerimiah

R.I.P Jake Phelps

Without skateboarding, I don't think I would have ever moved after high school to Birmingham. Without moving, I would have not met the friends I have today. Without moving I would have never met my wife, who doesn't mind the craziness and the fact that I still skateboard as an adult, and doesn't mind the fact we invest so much time into motorcycles. Skateboarders look at the world different than most people. It provided a great education on how to be human. If I had never picked up a skateboard, I would have been fucked... We praise Thrasher, not because it's a brand, but for what it stands for. SKATE... OR DIE. Jake Phelps was a celebrity to us, and 100% skateboarder. RIP

Chopped, Stretched, and Sprung

Ran across a guy named Steve in my extensive long search for a Dick Allen springer... This is a pic of his dads 1938 fully sooped up with all the goodies, but unfortunately now gone.
