wanna Jam it ...

jammin'

jam it wid you

I like jammin', too

jammin', jammin', jammin'

The Jammer catalogue ruled my life back in the day 78' and the're still going strong today.
Makes you wonder about the prices as a lot of the parts are still the same, no re-tooling costs etc.

I'm a speedking baby...

Good Morning World...

Jeremiah and a new customer (from England) Picture copyright of Love Cycles

Hallo Hallo. Wow feeling ten time better this morning, must have been the cider and wine combo last night, - or was it being able to hit the bathroom after 7 days?
Too much information?
Just want to say hi to you chaps visiting my page, a special hi five to the US contingent: Texas, California, Illinois, Connecticut, South Carolina, Colorado, North Carolina, Arizona, Florida, and Georgia.
Hey sign up so we can put a face to the map guys.
Just visited Jeremiah @ Love Cycles site, fucking great to see his gorgeous knucks and pans and shovels in his own inimitable style. A refreshing take on the custom chopper/bobber scene.
Saving up for the tee Jeremiah, great Logo!

gazing at you...

see me...

feel me...

touch me...

heal me...

A bit over the top chaps, but sums up all I can bloody do at the moment.
Making a list of essential can't do without parts. Cos there is no money now.
Got to get her dry build on the road, before winter, this year!
I have 5 weeks of no lifting to go.
I reckon it will be last week Sept, first week October.
And thats my optimistic heart rules head projection.

well that bloody hurt!

lucky lucky lucky
The hernia was bigger than anticipated, a bit more work and I had to stay in.
All I can say is I won't be working on the bike for a while.
And I was in the same room, opposite the bed my wife Ren had with her masectomy op last year, freaky - well it freaked Ren.

Heres my lucky figurehead, going on the sissy at the top.
Cast in brass he faces to the front and rear
I guess I'll soon know about the luck part!

In a gadda da vida baby...

check it out, -'the holy one' in arcadia

'darling there's a fucking chopper in the kitchen'

karma sickboy karma

home at last
Pick up my bike time.
Thought I'd hire a luton van with hydraulic tailgate, it worked with one of my moves with the shov. I took one look and realised my chop which must be all of ten foot long! (not) would not work , so a long wheel base van would do (cos you know its a long bike), not available saturday, fuck.
Ring joe, she's ready pick up friday, hire the van, set off at 7 am, and back at 5 pm. A long day.
Its Christmas and I'm six years old. We got trashed and just sat and looked at this gorgeous metal machine that I designed, trying to take in all those little details that make this - a fucking work of art!

Celebration time... come on!

Picked up the hire van tonight so I can leave early tomorrow and... pick up my fucking bike!
Come on lets celebrate... good times... come on!

shotguns at noon...

'Do not
forsake me
oh my darlin'
Finally, the pipes are being made. Joe was let down by his local suppliers and I managed to find an outfit in manchester, www.metal-supplies.com. Topman Derrick got the stainless stuff delivered friday when I met Mr FC at NOON in fenland country. A few issues with bits that were done and locations.
Picking her up on Saturday.
Its funny all I wanted was a frame, not even that as I was going to rake or hardtail the shovel.
All my parts ended up there so we could get everything spaced properly and lined up.
It looks like I've got loads of money and I'm having a full on chop build!
