Vintage Pure Heaven - Mount Airy, NC

One of my earlier travels this past summer was to Mount Airy, NC. It is the boyhood home of Andy Griffith and the inspiration for the fictional town of Mayberry, his hometown in the Andy Griffith show. My good friend Dock Merritt lives there. He is a collector and builder of all things with style. Jen and I payed him a visit in June, we were all gathering for an annual event at the Riders Roost Motorcycle Resort, and Jen needed some spokes tightened and her rear wheel trued, Dock had just the apperatus to complete the task. Not too mention we wanted to check out all his cool "junk".

Sick ass CB750 Santee Swingtail for sale.

My buddy Matt is selling his chopper. This bike is killer and well built, he is an engineer after all.


The red long bike is for sale.

Winter Shop Space

Well, I've landed back in IL for now, as mentioned. I've been looking for work and applying for jobs, but while no one has been calling back, I've managed to take-over and make-over the back room of the three car garage where I'm staying. I'm not quite 100% set up yet, but as you can see in the pics, I'm making progress.

Werewolves on Wheels

I decided to go out after all and celebrate All Hallows Eve with some friends. After a quick look-see in the Halloween stash box I realized I had all that was needed to become a wolf man. However, I did get heckled with "Chewbacca" or "Teen Wolf" from time to time...but it's cool, I'll take it. The chicks dug "wolfie" too.
