In Yankee territory ’tis the season to burn your old magazines to stay warm and buy new ones to remember why your feet keep moving on each day. Wrench Magazine just hit the shelves and it’s guts looked great when I split it open. Wrench hails from Paisano Publications, who brought us the likes of…

Classic Chop on an Evo Sportster
I settled into my desk today and happened upon a little gem that someone left for me. It was an Evo Sportster plastic model with functioning rear suspension and rubber tires. I rocked out a few wheelies and drove it over my computer a handful of times before loosing interest. Later in the day, while…
Chopper & Kustom Art – Cay Broendum & Adam Turman
I happened upon Cay Broendum‘s work over the weekend while checking out general chopper art. This guy is based out of Copenhagen and he’s incredibly talented; making all sorts of wares from paintings to furniture to bikes. His Pinterest is the first thing I stumbled upon and it’s loaded with his work and content. There’s…
Movie Monday – Werewolves on Wheels, 1971
I saw a picture of a guy’s chopper-haven basement and above the Panhead motor on the coffee table and 45 Springer rolling chassis were three classic biker movie posters. The fact that this dude was adorning his household domain with biker gold led me to believe he was no puss when it came to taste…
The Final Ride for 2012
My good friend Brad and I kicked it down on the bikes for what may be the final ride of the year. MN Weather is reporting a slippery slope starting this week so it’ll be open cases instead of open roads. Without Brad neither of my bikes would have ever made it to the asphalt….
More on Frankensteiners’ Ball
I posted a few back on the Frankensteiners’ car club Ball in Anoka, MN and here are a few more photos and stories. Justin & Tahn’s pup Holley came to enforce integrity and schedule. She is a dog of action.We had the privilege of meeting Robert Beck, who is pictured above. He was a Huey…
Just a Bunch of BFFs with Correlative Interests
Now this is what a bromance should look like. Justin sent me this epic photo…. 10,000 man hugs and a perfect chopper.
Wishbone Wednesday is always Thursday
I don’t know who owns this incredible bike, but I’ve stashed these two photos throughout the year. I can’t remember where the top one came from, but the lower photo is from a Born Free 4 thread on Chop Cult. The bike is incredible, to restate my point. The narrowed fatbob tanks are spaced and…
A Few Black & Whites from Summer
The Crown Vic was at St. Bonaventure’s Fall Show in Bloomington, the Deuce is Steve Anderson’s Medeusa which has been here before and the Panhead is cool…. it was chilling on the street at Messaround. Summer’s coming to a close and I’m a little bitter about it here in Minnesota.
Best Properties on the Market
The Week Magazine is pretty much my exclusive news source. It presents both sides and maintains relevant content while appealing to our useless curiosities. They have “Best Properties on the Market” every issue and this week’s theme was rad pads with epic garages. This is for those of you home shopping in Sonoma or wanting…
Wishbone Wednesday was Yesterday…
Wishbone frames can be an excellent compliment to a bike’s design when left exposed on a narrow build. I snagged this bike above from a writeup on Chop Cult and it belongs to Herb from Holden, MA. It’s a ’51 Pan/Shovel with a cool, simplistic design. The lower bike I found on the Jockey Journal…
Overpriced Excellence in the Country of the Rising Sun
I’ve been trying to keep a closer eye on the Japanese lately because they’re crafty and from my perspective in Minnesota, pretty understated too. There are some folks on that island that take American hot rod culture pretty seriously and not only are they fabricating the components of this lifestyle they are also doing a…
