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!

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!!
