A Holiday Special

Have a Beer.

Busy with some stuff these days. Got a couple projects bouncing around. Working on assembling the Chopper Shack. The gloom of winter is setting in. Im trying to get things lined up for me and mine but Ive got some posts coming soon so relax, have a beer, stay tuned.

Blasting Fireballs into my Face

Came across these pics on my desktop today. Not sure where they came from? Maybe Dudley’s Basement I think? Anyway – I’m really diggin’ that separate intake manifolds set up. Shit looks sketch, totally impractical and troublesome as hell and  yet completely fucking mind blowing. I’m gonna make something like this up and see if I can get it to work somewhat well enough to get me there and back without accidentally blasting a fireball into my face. Ill let you know how it progresses. Welcome to the chopper blog. Any spare changes is greatly appreciated.

Think Fast – Go Faster

Met up a week ago last Sunday with the fellas at the Blood Temple of Black Acid Beast. Zac was looking to get some pics of Pete and Hans bikes for Show Class. I rode along to get some video and mostly for the fun of it. Diamond Dave, Jordan, Reinhart and Hot Bobby were along too. –Jordan fixing his PBR kids hat.

We blasted through the state and over to Stillwater. Hopped the shoulder to skirt a two mile back up and somewhere along the way some asshole jumped in behind us thinking he was slick. He got his. The cops jumped in behind HIM and HE got stopped while the rest of us banged our way down the hill and around the bend. Zac’s tank sprung a major leak. After a little repair we started making our way back to the cities. Zacs tank was fucked. — Hans, Dave, and Zac inspecting the damage.

Me, Dave, Jordan and Hot Bobby split off at 35W, splitting lanes, destroying highway, 90-per (Dave leading the way on his FXR) as we high tailed it back to the Cities. Apparently somewhere along the way some douche got pretty mad about me shaking the paint of his hybrid and tried to clip me! Yeah! I didnt even know about it until Jordan told me what had happened. It goes back to the golden rule. Think Fast – Go Faster.

Minnesota Gold

Found a fella 3 blocks away who was getting rid of a couple snow throwers. This one he had for the last 35 years! 8HP, 26″ auger, First pull – MONSTER blower. Only cost me $30 bucks! I admit, most readers from outside of the northern Midwest probably wont get it but if you ARE from round these parts then you probably understand that $30 is honestly unheard of for ANY snow blower. By Minnesota standards, this thing is GOLD. Took me an entire weekend of smooth talking the guy to finally make the deal. Now if I can just figure out how to throw some lights and a sissy bar on it???
