Still whirling on the trip.There was so much to see and do. I tried my best to capture as much amazing shit as possible. I saw great electric giants and found a lost cycle wastelands in the middle of the desert. Never mind the rattle snakes as we watched a one legged man kick start a Bonneville Harley flathead, I was spin kicking the devil into a 20ft dream catcher while some kid from Canada proceeded to melt my mind! Just then I thought I’d survive the flames but instead I was fed two year old chili and accidentally stepped on Speed Ages orange rug. I was a foreigner in this land yet I still managed to find a 4 speed ratchet case and single-handedly stopped some 8 year old girl from beaning our van with a brick. I was lucky this time but I have the map and we shall return! ~ Enjoy!
I’ve been looking at those new Royal Enfield bikes recently. They are really cut right out of the past in a lot of ways. I dug this shot out of my lions raceway archive and it reminded me that they just don’t make em like they used to. There’s another shot of this bike and rider/mechanic in our header. Some serious hours and engineering in this beast. Note the Bonneville National sticker on the tank corner. I’d love to know what kind of speeds this guy has squeezed out of this thing. Welcome to the chopper blog.
You gotta dig this stuff. Wes at Four Aces Cycle is a regular at the Bonneville salt flats. I visit their site and triumph blog a lot looking at all the great triumph stuff they’re screwing around with. I say screwing around but actually these guys a quite serious about speed and enginering. Tons of great knowledge, parts, video, shirts, and speed coming out of Four Aces Cycle. Check them out, buy a shirt, support the need for speed. Speed Club approved.
