Couple for Turkey Day

 You know, I realize that Sportsters aren't supposed to be for trips, but that seat's too comfortable looking NOT to go somewhere.

With that headlight, the night rider sees all.

You know, just for perspective I looked up Dunlop Qualifier tires, because I think the one on this shovel is badass...and, WOW, they sure are some ugly bastards these days.

Happy Birthday , Dad

 Get your parts

 

Work on your shit

 

Go out and ride

I miss you, Dad.

The Bike Rack Gang

 I found the fact that they were parking at the Library bike rack alarmingly funny. Craig on the left, dunno his name on the right. Craig's the first customer I met in the shop when I got back from the Army...he told me he had gotten out of the Army ten years prior and hadn't cut his hair since he got out. I thought that was pretty cool.
I realize I told this story already. I forget things.

 You know, my dad became tolerant of other bike brands after about 2005 I guess, so I'm surprised this pic is in there. There WAS a guy who worked on Triumphs named Tommy Shenck..he had a pretty cool "period chopper", but I don't think there are any pics of it, so you'll have to check out this other nice looking Triumph parked at the BIKE RACK instead.

 Remember Face Plant Guy?

He doesn't give a shit where the bike rack is. He wants his face back.

I guess you shouldn't lose touch with what the business is all about.. and the bike rack is across the street in this case, to keep it thematic.  The city provided trashcan would give you lock-jaw if you gave it the chance.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

AAAAGGHH! Jesus, what in the hell is that?! It's a chopper ghoul in a furniture store!!!!

Mo' Party Pics!

 Any time I've been to a party and a few people move off into the darkness alone, it's usually accompanied my a skunky smell, lots of laughter, and the munchies. Just sayin' is all.

 I think this is a pretty rare pic of someone who can actually pull off a trucker hat without looking like Abraham Lincoln's step great-great grandbaby...AND, don't think I've ever seen Dano drinking ANYthing besides a soft drink. He makes up for it in his 13 pack a day smoking habit!

  

I'll BET those are some Dad-Bilt chicken wings that Sherry and my mom are eating...

Tommy hasn't moved. You think he's alright?

FRIDAY PARTY!!

 OK, who's had more at this point? Tommy Guye with some Wilkes County stump water and the old man with his fresh mountain spring water.

 I really don't know what the hell or who the hell this is. I recognize the duds, though.

I guess Tommy is hanging out with my dad, leaving poor Brenda sitting all alone...

 Whoop, there he goes, on the loose 

Mom, looking great as usual.

Hollister Junior? HELL NO, it's L-Dissssss (dat's Landis, gangsta)

 "Bangin' at the library, books are late and I'm NOT takin' this hat off when I get inside". I wish these pics were clearer sometimes.

 Beryl kicking over the Righteous Ruler

with my dad (partially obscured) and three guys I don't know the names of.

 Aw, jeez...I suck at names. I have a feeling his shirt is pre-hipster irony. His facial hair is not.

I'm pretty sure this is my first motorcycle. My memory ain't so good, and I only rode it once...skateboarding was my life, and I pretty much sucked at it at the time. You pick.
