Pretty wild stuff, Tony. Thanks for the pics.

The Blue from Detroit Choppers is my personal fave from this bunch, but the engineering that goes into two wheeled devices these days absolutely amazes me. Hollow wheels? True flames on bikes? Ya gotta love it! We get American Chopper (I am a bit tired of the fighting, so don't watch it any more) and Biker Build-Off here as well - there are some amazing machines being built. I also like the trike that was made years ago by Exile - what a cracker that was! One of the amazing things that Biker Build-Off brought to my attention was some (famous in the US) names and building traditions of people I had never heard of before - and the paint-affected Ron Finch was one of them. Crazy guy, but what a great craftsman. I waqs also surprised to learn about the dynasty that is the Ness family. They have done quite well for themselves, haven't they...

Hope you found your next bike in there somwwhere Tony!
