I am heading to sweet home East County this weekend to meet up with Eric Seaba at ES Designs to get some welding done on my bike. He is a welder by trade and does some great TIG work. Here he is welding up my tank.

I'll be back in Ohio for the Vintage Motorcycle Days Festival helping our customer Lowbrow Customs move some product and hopefully have some fun partying with Tyler and Kyle. Good times and debauchery await!
In the quest to get this chopper project wrapped up, I've begun gathering the last bits and pieces. I'll probably have my dad come and help me install some if these widgets next weekend.
Football season is right around the corner and I can't wait to finally sport my Chargers helmet on gameday. Here's to another run at the playoffs and a great start with our new running back Ryan Mathews.
Our buddy Kim @ Bench Mark just recently one the best competition build award at the second annual Born Free show in Long Beach, CA. Look for this bike to be featured on Chopcult in the near future.
