Cool Ad

This one is out of Germany for Matchbox (which is owned by Hotwheels). Awesome ad.... but to sell diecast to children? I know my collection of 3500 Hotwheels might have included more Matchbox if this ad was around 30 years ago.

Blue Angels Air Show

They had a big air show near me and the Blue Angels were there. I didn't go (too many people for me) but I got this shot while they were practicing on Friday as they flew over my work which is at the end of the runway.

Video as Promised

Mike's Ironhead

Well it looks as if we finally got Mike going on his bikes transmission. He tore into it and found out it ate the roller bearings which in turn fucked up the shaft.

Shed Update

Well I beat my deadline on it. I got the floor and all 4 walls up by 12 noon Sunday and just as I did it started to rain. Here is a pic of it with the 3 walls up on Saturday. I will update once I download the pics of it with the front wall done. Sorry about the blurry pic but my wife didn't focus and it's all I have for now.

Man I Gotta Get That Shed Built Quick

I am in the starting process of building a 12X12 shed to house some of my shit. I will have the floor and studded walls up this weekend or I am not coming in Sunday until it's done. Of course all my "buddies" bagged out on me and shall remain nameless (Marcel,Rick HAHAHAHA) but F it, it's only a shed I can do it myself. It will have a 36" metal door and a 4' wide garage door and that's it NO windows because I don't want anyone to see what's in there. It will be for storage not work and I will run power out for a couple of plugs for trickle chargers and lights. As you can see I have a space problem, my little 12x25 garage has a mini bike, '73 Sporty, '81 XS400, '99 Vstar 650, Yerfdog Go Kart and the motorcycle table has my wife's CB750 frame and engine. It's gotten so bad that my Sporty is in my wife's quilt shop and 3 other bikes are out in the weather. Damn I need to get out of work and get going on it. Here's a pic of the garage, just don't try to get to the toolboxes. HAHAHAHA

Yerfdog Go Cart

A buddy came over the other night and asked if I would get the go kart going he got 4 months ago. He owns a local idie chopper shop and hates messing with small engines (I do his lawnmowers too). Said if I get it going he'll give me a CB750 motor and bin of parts for Honda, took me about 2 seconds to say "deal". Cleaned the carb, installed a pull start, fixed the kill switch, added an air cleaner, painted some parts, cleaned the spark plug, checked the oil, changed the gas, lubed the chain and Vrooommm. Man this thing friggin' flies, I mean I go 220 and my son another 50 and it moves with us on it. I still want to try to get the paint off the tires to make it look good. I will have a video later tonight or tomorrow of it but here's some pics.
Us working on it.

Poser Alert

This bike was at the show I went to last week. The guy thought it was so cool that he had his bike painted just like the Hot Wheels one that he showed it with the diecast.

Motorcycle Ad

Best ad I've ever seen for a bike so far. It was for Aprilia it talked about having the right sized ass for the seat and was pulled after womens groups bitched.

Shit To Do

Well this weekend probably won't bring a whole lot of bike work to the blog. I will be working on a friends trailer tonight so I can pickup wood pellets tomorrow to heat my house for the winter. So tomorrow will be a ride to get them and then put them in the basement, 3 pallets with 50 bags each at 40 lbs a bag for 3 tons total. Then I get to change the oil in the two vehicles (boring but engine related). Sunday we have some friends coming over and will probably be grilling and maybe we can sneak away for a quick scoot.
Saw this and it fit's me perfectly just ask my wife.

Great Day, Great Cars. I will post these today and a couple every now and then because there were so many things to see.
Couple of beautiful Betties that posed for me (they were my personal favs), Thank you again ladies.

We met the guy that built this cool bike. He was the owner of Hellcat Kustoms from the look of the bike and the parts he had on his table he makes some quality shit check his site out.

Motorcycle Junkyard

This just makes me tear up.... the fact that they are going to waste.... and the fact that I don't own them all.
