STURGIS 2010 and Michael Lichter exhibit

I am honored to have two bikes in the show, one of the student built class bikes and one of my class project knuckleheads in the show

Here it is - the 10th annual "Motorcycles as Art" exhibition Michael curates each year was announced at the V-Twin Expo in Cincinnati Sunday morning so I can tell you all about it. It will again be held at the 6,500 square foot Lichter Exhibition Hall built last summer on the grounds of the Legendary Buffalo Chip, and like last year, there is no admission fee.

Basically, the exhibit will focus on the explosion of interest and the passion for custom motorcycles seen over the last 30-years. I titled it “Eternal Combustion- 30 in the Wind”, and it poses the question, “How is this passion passed on through time?” by displaying 30 recently built custom motorcycles by 15 pairs of builders tied together by family, respect, friendship or apprenticeship. On the walls, I will display my work (the first time in a number of years) to celebrate my 30th anniversary of attending bike week in Sturgis. The builder teams highlighted within the show include: Arlen Ness & Paul Yaffe, Carl & Matt Olsen, Dave & Jody Perewitz, Donnie Smith & Brian Klock, Eddie Trotta & Todd Silicato, Kevin Baas & his Kennedy High School Chopper Class, Gard Hollinger & Satya Kraus, James & Dave Kaye, Jerry & David Covington, Kirk Taylor & Brian Schimke, Roland Sands & Drake McGillroy, Ron Finch & Gary Maurer, Ron & Hunter Simms, and Sugarbear & Counts Customs.

Soon...

...the dusty black ribbons pointing West will be free of their cold slushy blankets that keep my wheels from rolling. The miles I plan to ride this year will choke my odometer with their tiny numbers rolling over, and over, and over. Here's to the future my friends. Cut the ties that bind and push on, to the sea.

Starting to think about getting a second dog


Since we lost our Staffie, Daisy, last August, I haven't been able to think about getting another dog to be a companion for our English bull terrier cross, Mabel. But I'm starting to consider the idea now, though the pain of loss is still incredibly raw.

I love Staffordshire bull terriers, and wish we could get another dog from the same Australian bloodline as Daisy. Her temperament was excellent: pure love for us, with an indomitable spirit when the occasion required. This is Daisy (top right) as a pup with her siblings, and a shot of her mother, Shari.

If you're not a dog lover, there will be more motorsickles along soon!

Dicey!

You might recognise this young fella... he's one of the publishers of the planet's other must-have chopper mag! His Pan chopper's the tits, and you can see more of it in the new issue, out very soon.

Dean's approach to the build is interesting, reflecting his ex-pat status... American chopper with English tank, fender, rims...

Santa Fe Importers in The Horse!
