FTH



This is how it starts.

Our Pathfinder M.I.A.








In the beginning, we all had stock evo motorcycles. All of us. Then we met Brandon, Whitey,PJ, and Joe. The only thing we had up until then in common was skateboarding and beer. The adventurer that Brandon is saw an opportunity to introduce us to motorcycles, wilderness, and high gravity beer. Brandon showed us what is was to live free. And though we have grown to big for Brandon's garage, and he is in Japan (and not dead), I miss my friend. If you know Brandon show some love, Let him know. Fuck the Haints FTH

Reminder

Bikes I dig.


I can't remember where I yanked this one from maybe from the Jock Journal. The stance on this bike is rad and I also dig the matching shouldered rims.

Bush Wacked.

Tom from the QCB reminded me of this photo. Thanks dude!


That looks like a 3/4 helmet by her leg.

Surf's Up.

I jacked this photo of our friend Ryan. Here he is in Sturgis surfing the Candyman bike with trailer in tow. This bike won the shovelhead class at Born Free 2. I heard that he wrecked this thing around the time that this photo was taken. Those of you that don't know Ryan, well, this photo is a pretty good description of him. A mile a minute. "Titties and beer is why Candyman's here."


Pussy.




Steve sent me this photo of him and his cat, Boots.

Drag Queen

I'm ready to die for the cause!

The date has been set!

For Born Free 3. Here is a photo from BF2 and it was hands down the best chopper show I have ever been to. There were so many cool bikes that I didn't even see half of them. June 28 2011.

Chopper Dreams.

Jerimiah's XS 750.

Jerimiah blew up his motor on the Super Trip and this fella must have found it and restored it.


I love a good portrait!

I'm telling you, I have to set up an appointment with the mall or Walmart to get a photo shoot.





Ride neked.


I believe this is from the movie Vanishing Point. This chicks boyfriend has a radical panhead chopper.

Its all in the family.


Our buddy Steve Wright sent me this photo of him and his chopper team. Steve is the bro rocking the mash shirt and as you can see, he means business. These guys build some amazing shit. Not to be fucked with.

Bastard Bash: Fun.

Myself, Duane, Spenser, and Kustom Jeff decided to roll up to North Carolina for the annual party put on by the Quad Cam Bastards. It fucking ruled to say the least. Met a lot of great people and made a few new friends. I'll put it this way, if you bought a 10 dollar raffle ticket, all of your booze for the whole weekend was on the house. Seriously. We drank so much and never ran out. Rob, thanks again for the hospitality. Oh yeah, I guess the ride across the country was too much for my camera to handle, so it's broken. I did download an app on my iphone though, so I can take some photos and express myself in the form of art.

The ride up there. Overlooking the Ocoee river. I love this road, it is nothing but great scenery the whole time.



It rained pretty bad the first day, but that didn't stop anyone.



Rain leads to a lot of random conversations. Talked about weirdo shit under this pavilion..



The Fugitive starring Harrison Ford.



Dudes.



Rob was wondering if I was going to take any critter photos. Here you go.



At the top of the Fugitive dam. It was cool.



Photos of photos being taken.



I told you I was here to express my art. Damn son, look at this photo. I thought about trying to skim board down this thing, but I left my equipment in Panama City.



Joe is from California. He is currently traveling the country on his bike. We got to meet him for the first time and I think he is our new best friend.



Choppers!



Duane reciting passages from the Dark Kustoms Handbook.



Bad 2 da bone.



A great group of people. I had fun. I will plan on attending again next year.

Sneaky Peeky.

I don't want to show too much skin, but Me and Spenser have been drinking beers and working on my new bike a whole lot lately and I'm really proud of how she's coming along. Trying to be original in some aspect, but keep it real to that 60's steez. I need to hurry up and finish her, so I can show off how pretty she is. I'm predicting a few more weeks before I can tear her down and get Johnny Boy to sling some paint. The only thing that's slowing me down is money and the lack of swap meets around here. Donations accepted. Ha!



See you tomorrow.

I've been needing to go out and put some miles on the bike. What better excuse than to run up to Bastard Bash. I hope they don't get mad that some of us aren't riding Sportsters.


I need a title for this photo.


I've already thought of some shit that will definitely piss off all of the PC, anti-racism, I take everything too seriously fucks out there. Like "Chocolate Fruit" or "Smoke Crack". But I just can't nail the perfect title. Give me some ideas.

a prayer for cool from Marc Bencivenga on Vimeo.





dig it yo

Day in the life of > > >

Go ahead and mark your calendars.


It's the weekend after the Barbers Vintage Festival. There are no excuses. You have to make it. I am giving you guys ample notice, so go ahead and get off work, tell the wife, all that shit. Seriously, the only legit excuse that I can think of is from those of you that have kids. Other than that, this is going to be a super fun run and all the benefits go to Lee.

How badass is this bike........


J-Rod posted a picture of the Pan-Z the other day and I re-realized how much I love this thing. Did Jasin Phares go into hiding?

Here ya go.


What a goofy looking dude.

August Bike Night


Hangover face.

I think most of you have been there. This is when I thought i got drugged the night before. Tubbs told me that he found some swingers trying to take me home and I was down with it. Also Brandon said I slept kind of sitting up. California is weird.
