What a great local event. Lisa went down early to help Paul set up so my buddy Chris and I took our bikes.  The taco were good but the icy truck ruled.

We went to the  Barona Drag Strip yesterday and had a ball!!!  Lisa shot photos all day while I found the best spot in the house that had a great view of the track and shade……. Big thanks to the Klass family for letting us know about it. We hope Joel is feeling better!

I need a part for the Sabre

When Steve  was out for the Hippy Killer Hoedown, we tore into the Sabre as the speedometer hasn’t been working right. Well after a  hour of testing many wires , he realized the sending unit on the front wheel is shot!

                    Both of us have searched but haven’t had any luck. It is a 85 Honda Sabre and if  you know a guy that knows a guy, that might have the part, let me know please, duane@dbcustomleather.com

Big thanks to Steve for having the patience to deal with all those wires.

This man is a jack of all trades and creates bicycle and motorcycle frames like no other. If you are thinking about taking a class for welding or frame building, be sure to check out his site http://www.brewracingframes.com/

My donation for Cathy’s Help

I donated this wallet to Jeremy Johnson for his upcoming bike show for Cathy’s Help. The bike show will taken place next weekend in Conyers, Ga. and you have the opportunity to win this with a purchase of a raffle ticket on site.

Lisa met Jeremy last year during Daytona Bike Week and knew she had to help him get the word out. The foundation helps women who are battling breast cancer, with or without insurance. Last year, a woman needed a new AC unit so Jeremy took everything in the account and made it happen. The funds are sitting at $3554.51 and their goal is $50,000. Do me a favor and follow their Facebook page,http://www.facebook.com/pages/Cathys-Help/173512725993874  , donate if you can and help spread the word.

Let’s pull together and win this fight

Little Jenny killed it!

I seen one of Jenny’s painting last year @ the Primer Nationals and knew I wanted it for a tattoo. She lives in Santa Cruz so getting the time to meet never seemed to work. Well thanks to Chris at Power Tattoo Company, the deal was done yesterday. She is super light handed and it was by far the least painful tattoo I have sat through. 

If you live near Santa Cruz, check her out at Eight and Aces Tattoo Shop located at 343 1/2 Soquel Ave ,Santa Cruz, CA 95062.

To see more of her work, please go to http://www.hardroaddesigns.blogspot.com or http://www.tattoosbylittle.com/
