The Joker-mobile

Got my first paint job done with less fuck ups than I expected. It looks pretty shitty up close but I reckon it is only going to end up getting the shit beat out of it anyhow. My hat is off to pro body work people. I spent so much time doing prep work and can still see every flaw. Painting is a lot of fun but I think I will stick to being a patina pervert as much as I can. Hope everyone is keeping it positive out there and looking out for one another.  Much!

Stroker Ace or Max Rockatansky

Since my last post I went to the local grocery store and found that people here are tragically flawed when scared. And they are really scared. I could not find any groceries or even dog food so I bought a keg of beer. I am continuing to work and customers continue to bring me their dirt bikes but tomorrow looks uncertain or perhaps it is just my paranoia or buying into the mass hysteria that seems to be sweeping everybody up by their Stephen King doomsday fiction fantasy pebble brains. The next person that proclaims or even mutters the word apocalypse might have to dodge my old ice axe hanging on my wall. Why am I so worked up though? Well I tell ya why, and it has nothing to do with people wearing Michael Jackson surgeon masks or using old paper bags to wipe my ass. I am supper bummed because I finally built myself a race car and the hill climb race season starts this spring or at least it is supposed to but if everybody keeps freaking out and manifesting the end of human play time than instead of Stroker Ace I may have to take things a little Mad Max direction instead. Come on people this is serious. Wash your hands, make a cup of tea or something and chill out.
Racing is a better way.

Cowboy's wake

A little over a week ago I drove 13 hrs out to Tommy's Triumph Shop to celebrate one hell of a man. I lived out of my van for 5 days, drank a lot of whisky and beer, and got to spend a day at Mark's Diamond Auto body.  (Long time friend of Tommy's and race team member who bought my old Champion framer that helped fund the opening of Newbold's Motorbike Shop). Thanks for the crash course in auto body Mark! It was a great trip and gave me a lot of time to reflect on our time in this universe. Like a common fool, all I listened to on my drive was news and talk radio and I came to the conclusion that brainwashing is a huge part of our society. I realized that when we get scared we look to the media to get our answers and it is currently not working out so good . It is hard to find our own conclusions but if we all tired a little bit more and looked towards others a little less than I think we would find that everything is pretty darn mighty fuckin fine. Go out side, ride a bike, kill your screen. Find your own answers.




What would Cowboy do?
Don't need no fucking toilet paper!
