Barry said these shots don’t need a story. He’s right!
On your darkest day, these shots will bring back warm memories, longing, a broad smile, tender thoughts, beauty, touch, Nirvana and pure heaven right here on earth.

I was working in a bike shop on Imperial Highway, US Choppers in 1970 to support going to Long Beach City College. I was into my first Shovelhead after I sold my 1969 XLCH, and perhaps my fourth bike build after the Sportster, a bent Triump 650 and a 45 trike ground up.
Through Andy Hansen and Bob George I started to rebuild engines. I met Andy on the USS Maddox, DD731, which was my last duty station in the service.
I started to work for Easyriders on the third issue in 1971. That puts me at about 52 years in the motorcycle industry.

One thing I remember the most is we “rode” our bikes not ride them. We lived the life. Rode hard and fast and built our own bikes to be different.
