Their is something in the air tonight

Still smoking is a great Cheech and Chong but also what the old DT1 Champion framer did tonight. add premix and pow pop pop pop brap braaaap braaaaaaaaaaap pop pop pop. runs great. sounds like heaven. I could smell the years that this thing has sat waiting for me to light it up like a giant dooby.

saddle hound

put over 300 miles on the rigid the last two weekends. it aint that many but it is enough to get sun burned, wind burned, def, numb butt cheeks, carpel tunnel, beautiful fall scenery, a lonesome van loving dog at home, bloody stool, an appreciation for anybody who rides rigids, and the know how to fix an electrical problem with a beer can. would not trade her for any other bike out their. true love.

Friday night under the lights.




I knew it was going to be a night to remember when Ian showed  up and parked his truck on my front lawn wearing a shirt that said " i still play with cars"           I had been watering the track for over 24 hrs. Flood lights were put in place, the whiskey was dissipated properly. Five cars battling. three lap motos. stop watch hot laps. shit was a rc nerd's fantasy. didnt retire until 2am. were back out on track at 8am.

Busted out Kenny Coolbeth's National championship winning CRF450 today at the shop. Have to get it ready for the Dave Bettencourt memorial flat track race. It is by far the fastest, and most expensive CRF I have ever ridden. Got to love Hondas!

WHEELIES


voted the #1 motorcycle trick of all time

Their is a party in my back yard tomorrow night......

...and i want to know who is coming. dont worry i will clean the sheets.

its raining cool bikes.

got this today in pay for doing some fork seals. purdy fair deal i reckon. problem is i got no where to put all these fuckin bikes. some one oughta put me on that hoarders show and try and take my bikes away and i will start crying and cursing at the camera. er maybe not maybe i should just start my own shop and live happily ever after. This little old cream puff Suzuki has nice paint and metal fenders and even a little matching bike pump to fill up them fat knobblies. runs good. think m in love. any one know what it is? I have heard it called a " fat cat" and a "toat goat" 

the jerky shed

Baja says "Hey Mick, stop wanking off and lets go racing"
When lord Mick moved in with me at the begining of the summer i knew we had too many dirt bike junkies for one garage so we scored him a shed from Goat another dirt bike junkie. Goat even used his dads back hoe and a flat bed to move it over to my back yard. we tucked it in behind my shop and the RC track. the only weird part is the door had a lock on it on the inside. maybe thats not weird, sometimes we all need a little alone time with our bikes. any hoo we named the shed the jerky shed. the end. good story huh?

Day one


Made a little progress with tear down...now just need money... haha!

so you wanta be a champion?


Illuminati logo cool as shit. found some pet cocks and bungs. what fun words.
Found the lady a front end. didnt have to leave my back yard. sorry dt400, rest in pieces. so far the only money spent on project champion is fork seals. keep it cheap, keep it simple, and make it fast as a fuckn jalapeno mornin after dookie crank.

A customer came in today who makes custom helmets. He brought this one in today.
He makes some really sweet lids. He brought this one in the other day.

Some days I wish I was that creative.
