Branding......it's coming along.
Here's a little teaser for the new tags in the back of our vests. Dig it.

Tuesdays are for metal finishing.

Almost finished up metal finishing this little gem. Then off she goes to a far away land to ride atop someones trusty stead. Can't wait to see the pictures of this one mounted up.

Hardtailing jakes xs frame

We finished up jakes xs650 hardtail for his frame this week, Here's a couple of progression shots.

Laying out the jig...




All bent up and ready for welding...




And the finished hardtail. We need to finish a couple braces for the rear, and then on to the rest of the build. Also check out the front gusset area, we cleaned all the factory junk up and added our own window gusset.



This is going to be one cool little ripper. Oh and notice the step van has made it into the shop and the frame is missing? Updates coming soon.......

Torquefest

So we made the trek down to Iowa last weekend to check out Torquefest again. This was the second year that John wells has put the show on, and I have to say we were thoroughly impressed with how great the turnout was for this only being the second year. It was good to have a nice presence from some of the other Limpnickie lot crew as well. We met up with some old friends and made some new ones throughout the weekend. At one point I think Don wood and Chris Callen may have both tried to sneak me into one of Don's gypsy bed rolls. I'm not sure what their intention was, but I have a sneaking suspicion it may have been against my will. Allegedly.

The dirt track was running crazy all weekend with both flat track races and nut jobs in their hot rods tearing it up. At one point somebody put their 50' merc over the barrier tires and jacked the front end all up. Unfortunately no pictures of that. Anyway, enough jibber jabber, here's some pictures of what I did see.

Show cars in the colosseum:









This guy has the coolest tow rig ever.


I only wish I could have bought this. I want one for when i have a kid someday....


I would even settle for this if I had to...


Heading home was one of the most scenic rides I have been on. 52 runs right next to the river, so there's plenty to look at. The only shitty part was that it was 38 degrees all the way home, all 300 miles of it. Every part of me froze up like a dreamsicle.


Midstream pitstop...





Until next time, stay classy Iowa.
