PArty
Hot mega-van running a shovelhead and bourbon beer cross state lines in the hammer lane. Whys the heat blowing on me?!? ACCC
They Just Might Do It !!
Hi Pat,
Rolled off midway thru the timed mile. Nasty cross winds pushed the bike across most of the lane. Try again tomorrow.
John
The record in their class is 109mph. Things look promising!

The straw.
Sorry to say boys and girls, but it is time to rent a truck! The mounting stud for my oil pump just snapped clean off. It was a NOS part and the baggie the guy pulled it out of said AMF. I may be serious about the AMF sighting. I need to get a file, a punch, a drill, and an easy out. Needless to say, I need to get back to NJ yesterday to get my work in order for the incoming students. No more fucking around with my toys. Summer is over and I'm happy to say this was the best summer I've had in years. Not too much bullshit, a lot of learning, not one dull moment, and most importantly time spent with family.

One way ticket to MN.
I purchased myself a oneway ticket to MN. Got to spend all of my time with family and friends. We put together a sweet little shovelhead chopper. It's time to head home.
Dont pull me over, I'm on my way.
I'm taking off pretty soon. This is a hell of a feeling. Here's become home. I've got a pretty solid ride and a long trip ahead of me. Plenty of stopping but not as much considering we got her all tuned up on the dyno. I don't know how to express my gratitude, I've never known how. I am good at recognizing all of the hard work it has been for everyone to help me realize my dream. This last leg of it I will have to do it myself.

Good Luck Fellas!
This past monday John Endrizzi & his teammates brought their landspeed knucklehead by the shop to run on the dyno. They just got it fired friday night & were hoping to get on top of the jetting before they headed for the salt flats this week for the Bub event. It was really a neat experience & we had a lot of fun running it on the rollers. Lee Wickstrom did the engine.. It really sounds good & there is a lot of neat stuff going on inside. Check this link out for a little more info on the bike. I'll keep you posted with their progress as I find out. Go get em guys!

What a great day for church
Was full of surprises and also a reality check. Shovelheads shouldn't whine. HP numbers are good to know.

My neck
My back, My shovel and My crack.
Ended early today at Ted's because we need to regroup (not a 2AM night)... I'm sitting in the car cuz my back is killing me. I should be in the garage cleaning up/covering the seat. Gimme a minute. Wait the garage is locked. Sleep time.
Tonight!
Rode the 39 to work today. Finally got it back together. If things go smooth today Sergio's "One Way Ticket" should be running. Maybe we will see you in Elba tonight on some vintage scoots?? Lets Party!!
