Three

Dad had been telling me about a raffle that he was going to win for 6 months in advanace for a 1975 Norton Commando. Kind of the way you talk about what you're going to spend your money on when you win the lottery. I never thought he'd really win it and then I got the phone call from Dad. He won the raffle! We were both really excited. He made room in the garage for his third bike. Considering he sponsored a sporty build as well, that actually makes 4 bikes. If you stop by his garage, you'd think a bike gang was stopping by. You can push a button or kick it. Be on the lookout for a cafe racer conversion of this gem(jk)

Triumph Bonneville Has Arrived

Dad got a steal on a '69 Triumph Bonneville from a guy out in Cali. Closed the deal a week ago and it got delivered already today. Everything on the whole bike is fully rebuilt. It has a kickstart tranny, Paughco Springer front end, wassel tank and rear fender. The paint really sets it off and matches the old school look of the bike. The coolest feature is the skinny rear end with a 19 inch rear wheel wrapped by an avon. Here's some pics of the delivery, more to come:

Following up to the Wharton Freedomfest Auto/Bike Show this past weekend. Dad rode a total round trip of 800 miles on the bike going from Dallas to Austin to El Campo and back. Definnitely was the farthest traveler at the show. I forgot the camera so I didn't get any pics of Brandon's restored '69 Charger, but Jenna Zabodyn took some awesome pics of the bikes. Brandon took first place in the 60s class and also first place in the Viewers Choice where each participant votes on their favorite in show. That car is ridiculous. Dad got ripped off in his Touring class. Another street glide took honors with a bike that wasn't in the same league. The Sporty took 2nd place.

Wharton Freedom Fest

This Saturday, heading over to Wharton for a car/bike show. Brandon is entering his newly restored Dodge Charger and Dad is entering his Harley Street Glide. The sporty will be entered as well. Will update with pics from the show next week.

It is Finished

Got to celebrate Cass's shower and the completion of the Sporty with family this weekend. Pictures didn't give it justice, it was too much to take in at first glance when dad arrived with the bike on the trailer. The candy paint matches the power this tiny bike puts out. Its hard to open up the throttle without fear of getting left behind the bike. We also got to finish the nursery as Dad came in did work with the paintbrush. Awesome work Dad.
