Whats with wacko authors and motorbikes? My guess is to many drugs, but thats just a hunch...

On the topic of self destructive authors...

Bukowski...

“If you're losing your soul and you know it, then you've still got a soul left to lose”

Surfin' Turf

I went to the Surfin' Turf Skatepark anniversary show called Salad Days in Milwaukee last night put on by Peter DiAntoni. Very cool...Vans was sponsoring it, drinks were being served, some very cool old video footage was being projected on the wall, tons of old photos many that were enlarged, old paraphernalia from when the park first opened and then its second resurgence. Besides the photos one of the coolest things they had going on was they were printing t-shirts with the original design while you wait...here's photos of the evening...

awesomeness...

if not already. Spring skate season is here! Just gotta find a lil more time to roll...

Salad Days

I've known about this for a couple weeks. I've got a long history of skating at The Turf and am planning on going to this on Friday evening right after work if anyone is interested in going too and throwing down a few bucks for gas or something. If I end up going by myself, I'm riding the Harley, and its going to be damn cold.

Covers baby, covers...

Had a little miscommunication with the guy that was stripping the chrome off the side covers for the Triumph...he ended up polishing them too and charging me a little more than I had anticipated. Buuuuut, they look amazing. I was going to do the polishing myself, but this will just save me a little elbow grease I suppose. I finally put the patent plate on. I bought it over 7 months ago when I started this project. I still have to polish the primary cover (you can see the corner of it in the upper left hand side of the picture), probably this weekend.
