Thanks Breanne!

Just when I was starting to lose faith in the Jockey Journal, 30-something pages of pure chopper goodness rises to the surface and rescues it from crappy cell-phone pics of marginal beaters. Jap bikes and Datsun mini trucks, pure period California of my childhood. Take the time and read, absorb the photos and eavesdrop on people who lived it. If it's your first time on the board, please spend some time lurking before posting, it's just better that way.

Help make your scene a better one by getting out and going this weekend. Help support the vendors that are there by buying something like one of these tail lights I got from Gabe at After Hours Choppers. Truly a bitchin design that you have to see in person. The Chop Meet is in Wrightwood CA at the MT High Ski lodge. See ya there!

We're gonna be up the mountain Thursday afternoon and there through the weekend to run the First Annual So Cal Chop Meet. Please excuse our lack of returned emails, phone calls etc for a couple days. We'll be back at it first thing Monday morning. If you are going to the event, make sure to stop by the Biltwell booth and introduce yourself to Tyler and his lovely wife from Lowbrow Customs. They'll be hocking our stuff and theirs under one tent. If you want to spot some prototype risers check out Duane Ballard's Honda chop or my black sportster. If you look close you might even spot a mega-ultra-performance-enhancing points cover proto on a bike or two. See you there!

I don't know why the blog shows this video twice, but it doesn't matter. Just watch it.

Yes, I want this. Bad.

Throw Rag has a new album out and the artwork shows a Tijuana tourist staple, the donkey cart, complete with donkey painted as a zebra. I haven't stopped in TJ on purpose since I spent a night in jail there in 1988 but I wonder if it's still there. According to =mike= it was there in 1996...
