Gentry's Tank

Had the opportunity to navigate through the fog from Philly back to Brooklyn with Gentry. I am loving his panhead. Perfect blend of parts, even if he only gets 40 miles on a tank of gas.

Cushion for the Tush'in

Gonna try to make this work on the rigid. The rear fender's radius should actually work perfectly. Maybe a slight seat pan bend if any.

Ride to Skate or Ride to Ride

it was a later start to the day than ideal, but at around 8pm, Walter and I hit the road to Philly. Our goal was to get down there, maybe catch one of the bands, say hi to the Dice Magazine guys, hand out some flyers for an upcoming event and ride back home.

We hauled ass down there. The best part about riding without speedometers is the conversation like this:

walter: "man, how fast do you think we were riding?"

me: "I dunno, maybe like 70?"

walter: "riiiiiight....."

all I had was my iphone camera so here's 3 crap pictures.

brian from HOTW panhead built by love cycles.

I haven't really found the love for trumpets, but this one was well done. plus my brother in law, Michael Thursby was fa-reaking out about it, so it must be good.

Philly knows how to ride 2-Up. I've never seen it like this in california. Definitely inspirational to have that back seat and a sissy bar.
After 8 hours and some great laughs, and some intense fog, our complete round trip voyage from Walter's shop back to Brooklyn was complete. i'm tired.

Albuquerque

I went to New Mexico and all I got was this photo. And some great Adovada Burritos Christmas Style. That means with both the red AND green chiles. Thanks Francis!

I may post a few more pics later. Flying back from a detour through West Palm Beach and will hopefully make the Ride to Skate event down in Philly. My goal is to make it in time to catch American Speedway take the stage. Oh and to not break a tailbone.

this beat was bubblegum, so I had to chew it

damn....on sunday we lost M-Bone to another case of the drive-by. so pour some out of your 40 and listen/watch the hot jam from Cali Swag District. go ahead, teach me how to dougie.



I'm glad that this song graces the newest Girl Talk album though. It made its mark. M-Bone, get your death on...

Locals Only, bro

While my Rainbows are my staple choice for sandals, nothing beats a pair of Locals for their simplicity and memories. When I spent time in Hawaii some 10 years ago while in college I learned of the greatness that Longs Drugs would provide. Everyone bought their Locals there.

When you would go to a party, everyone would take their sandals off and there would be this pile of flip flops. It seemed that at the end of the night, you would just grab whatever pair fit you and hit the road.

A big thank you to Jose for hooking me up with a new pair!
