“Stuff your eyes with wonder. Live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dreams made or paid for in factories. Ask no guarantees, ask for no security, there never was such an animal. And if there were, it would be related to the great sloth which hangs upside down in a tree all day every day, sleeping it’s life away. To hell with that. Shake the tree and knock the great sloth down on his ass.”

- Ray Bradbury 

Brooklyn Invitational. Brooklyn New York. September 2014.

Sunday funday ride with Francis Kielb. 

I went to the Handbuilt Motorcycle Show in Austin TX. Beautiful machines, death defying stunts. Good people. Good times. 

These motorcycles are the U-Haul’s of Cambodia.  

Last weekend was the Brooklyn Invitational. Lots of folks wrapped in leather and bikes covered in chrome. 

The folks that gather are equally as interesting as the bikes they ride in on, sometimes more so. For me the scene is what gets me out to an event like this. 

All types and styles were represented. I saw a great XS650 bobber and a nice classic Indian in my favorite color, turquoise.

It’s always inspiring to see what other people are putting together. Motivates me to get out there and wrench on my old scoot.  

A short video I made on a shop called Genuine Motorworks.
