The Messaround is a fantastic period correct car show in Minneapolis at the Memory Lanes Bowling Alley. The cars are top-notch hot rods, the bikes were killer and the scene is solid greaser culture. I’m passionate about tattooed women and cars with more than 5 carburetors so it was very relative to my interests. http://www.minneapolismessaround.com/…
Fancy Ray
And suddenly, Fancy Ray! The State Fair could hardly contain his personality and it was a riot talking to him. He’s top notch. The gallery has more photos of him.

This dude was great. Huge American flag on his back and note that thigh tattoo.
HD Tent @ State Fair
Harley’s tent at the fair was weirdo central and it was awesome. A simple John Hancock on the paper and you’re a Son of Anarchy, or something. I would like to do a review and test drive of the new XR 1200. I think I have something like 3 followers right now so hopefully there’s…
The Hot Rods of Agriculture
Justin will always find the parallels to hot rodding, whether direct connections or abstract. Here’s a 3-piece wheel for the import buffs. We were rocking it row crop since the beginning. This Case tractor was so self-sufficient that it even held its own tent up. That side steer is rad and will be a conversation…
MN State Fair
The MN State fair is a super content rich environment. It’s hard not to get excited when you approach the entrance and see 4 million people scrambling like a sweaty ant farm, but we had to remind ourselves that we didn’t go there to have fun. Show up early and case the layout to get…
Let the Labors of the Weird Begin
“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, ‘Wow! What a Ride!’” – The good doctor
Critter Shoot-Out
The MN State Fair is in full effect and we have a little challenge underway. Morlock, Columbus & I are having a contest to see who can capture the coolest photo of obese carnage. We have great categories for bonus points to be awarded by an anonymous panel. I’ll post the winner’s shot when the…
Get Your Torque On
I have a new line of torque adapters hitting the market so pre-order yours now. They’re available in precision stick (pictured), TIG or JB Weld with an Ed Hardy theme. In seriousness, I needed one of these in a hurry when I didn’t have access to the shop and Northern Tool was cool enough to…
Unit Harleys as art, or something…
Sir, I can dig on your Triumph chopper, but I’m more interested in your Photoshop skills. Perhaps we could workout a trade for a UL horn or waterbed.
The Good
Clint is Still the One… speaking at the RNC tonight and forever an icon. Original content is still building momentum to jump start the page, but in the meantime these photos were too cool to not upload. British horse or American motorcycle you’ll still make his day.
