John B. is getting his Vegas on. Recommends a spot called the Freakin’ Frog. Sounds good to me. From: John B. Subject: hammer time in Vegas …just in case you need a break from drinking & gambling… …I actually rode it through the Casino while trying to take it up to the room – I [...]

My man Snake sent me a photo earlier this summer while I was studying for the bar exam with this text: Chad says you built these wheels for him over 10 years ago. Yep. His first set of tubs. FIR rims on White Industry hubs. Them shits is baller. I’ve turned a wrench or two [...]

Mike wrote this in the comment section of the Rider Down: Jeff Bates post earlier today: Hey y’all….Jeff passed last night.

At the award ceremony this morning in Leadville, our boy Snake got himself a new buckle. In a word: Impressive. It looks like the hood off a Chevy pickup. Makes the sub-nine buckle look puny by comparison. And, I’d hate to see that thing next to my two sub-twelve buckles. It’d make ‘em look like [...]

Oh snap! LT 100 baby, life just got real. I was getting pics sent to me as I sorted out my central air conditioning drain. Yes, the pan overflowed. Yes, it was mess. Yes, I fixed it. Yes, it required crawling into a small dark space underneath the air return to clean up an inch [...]
