Jason,

Thanks. I can’t take that much credit.

A Pulitzer Prize winning photographer was asked, “How did you shoot that great picture?”

“F/8 and be there,” was his answer.

Shooting the FBM is kind of the same way. All you have to do is stand there and something crazy is going to happen.

I may be back in the Midwest on vacation then, but if not, I’ll sure be there.

If it’s half as much fun as the Summer of Love ride, it’ll be a blast.

“Icy Pops fix everything”
That’s awesome! I love Krusher.
Great write up Ken.
Hope to see you at the Halloween event, make sure your card is empty, there are some really neat things to see and photograph on the Mother of all Choppernites!

Mark S,

You worked for TV. If it bleeds, it leads.

I’ve even got a certain amount of street cred with these guys. When I was being introduced to someone I had never met before, he asked what kind of bike I had.

The fellow I knew said, “You ain’t gonna BELIEVE the bike HE has.”

When you can impress FMers, you KNOW you have a special bike.

I’m going to see if I can get KrusherZ to help me put flame throwers on my bike like he has on one of his. I bet I won’t have any trouble getting drivers to obey the 3-foot rule after that.

This sounds like a great group of cyclists. It’s these kind of bike riders who need more publicity so that folks in cars might change their attitude towards all of us out there on the streets.

Liked the video of building the bike, but I guess your ghoulish side kicked in once the “accident” occurred since we never saw anymore of the bike build.

You weren’t tempted to grab a cutting torch and try out some custom work? Just imagine what you could go to your SLHT once you master adding on MORE tubing!!

Would like to see how the bikes are handed out during the holidays if you can be there for it.
