100% Biker

My Shovelhead appears in the new 100% Biker magazine (No 180).
What started out as a shoot for Dogbone clothing turned into
something bigger. 
Mix in Tom Frankham photos, Prime Skatepark and a Funeral French Mural and some words on Shovelheads from Me, it came out really good. 
Go and buy one, it is a good mag and now has Blue Miller at the helm.

When you do a new bike you gotta rinse it a bit!
Here are workshop pics from Benny's camera phone.
Came out better than mine.

Digger on the floor

Got my bike on the ground. All the hard bits left to do.
It is dark purple with ghost ribbony things and louvres.
I like it.

Panlamp

My Magnificent friend Lee does these amazing Panhead Lamps.
They are the 8th wonder of the world.
Get one here. It is the stuff of  Legend.

RIP BoB 2

Two guys from DEVO pass away in a year.
DEVO were and still are a staple diet in my life.
Now my sons love them too.
So anti rock and roll, they weirded out and created their own style.

Check out this video, they give the customary awkward interview and then kill it on stage
with the hop jumping moves at four minutes and DEVO salute at the end.
A sad few days in Trawler household.

Hipsters

Thank you for this Guy at Greasy Kulture .

I havnt been around bikes for the longest time,
longer than some, not as many years as others.
This stuff made me laugh so much.
Dark workshops, sparky angle grinders, new beards,
"cafe racers" taped headlights and haircare products..... It's all fucked now.

Hopefully it will go away soon.  Just ride and be yourself.
Be the same person you were ten years ago.

Shoe History

In a half-drunk happy hour at The Prime Skateshop Bar on Saturday night
this new book was dropped into my lap.
History of Skateboard sneakers "Made For Skate".
Couldnt believe my eyes, my old advert for Pacer Hogs on page 164.
Got my own copy today....
STOKED!
