And, the day after Love Thy Chopper.......

Part-timer Steve has something going on, starting the morning of the 17th, the day after Love Thy Chopper. If you're coming all the way here for LTC, you can't pass up a chance to take a guided ride through the Rocky Mountains for a couple days.....and Steve knows the way!

New T shirts, new name......

For Born Free III, we decided to have some new shirts printed, so we could sell them at the event. So, without reservation, we contacted Andy, at American Icon. Andy does some of the best printing out there, so give him a shout when you need something:

Andy and his crew went above and beyond for us at the 11th hour- getting the artwork print ready, printing the shirts, and shipping them out to Kirk Taylor in Novato, CA so he could bring them down for us to BF. But, us here realizing that the shirts might not get to Kirk before he left on Friday, we called Andy. Andy tried his best for us to catch the shipment at the various terminals to make sure they arrived in time. Guess what? UPS said in effect "Nothing we can do, fuck you very much, and please use UPS again for all your shipping needs!"

So, needless to say, they arrived in Novato 5 hours after Kirk needed to leave to get to L.A. on time. Sucks, but that's life. We have them here in stock now, ready to ship, in Mens LG, XL, and 2XL. I'll also have them in my booth at Love Thy Chopper July 16.

DON'T MISS THIS !

Did you miss Born Free?? Well, here's the perfect reason to load up the bike, and head out to Denver for Love Thy Chopper to make up for it. A year is a long time to wait for an event, and you'll kick your own ass if you miss out on LTC, too!

We'll have a booth set up at LTC, so come by and say hello to Part-timer Steve and myself, see our Born Free Builder's Circle Bike.....and buy the Tshirts that didn't make it to Born Free so we could sell them there!

And, the night before LTC, come join Dice Magazine for their Issue #39 release party........

Now THIS is a weekend you can't pass up!

Oooooohhhhh Nooooooooo!

A little movie trivia.......

Below is a still from the movie Hells Angels '69. It's from the scene where Terry The Tramp is showing his motorcycle riding prowess to the two new guys. While doing so, he crashes into the side of a Rambler station wagon, and flies over a hedge into somebody's yard. Magoo dives over the hedge right after Tramp, opens up his medical bag, and treats Tramp's injuries by administering him a beer.

Now, Tramp didn't do this stunt, it was done by a double. I know who the stunt person was, but can any of you tell me who did the stunt? You don't get anything for being correct, just the bragging rights.

(Yeah, and no fair going to the IMDB for the answer, you cheaters!)
