Heroes....ED ROTH





Mosquito

Don't think I came round to showing the Mosquito dragster as a whole.
Couple of months ago I finished the paint on this 60ies styled vw slingshot.
Din't have the opportunity of shooting it till now...maybe this will happen this winter...
doing some burnouts somewhere in the area of Ghent.
below is a crappy phonecam shot, it will to do for now...more to come when we get round to it.

Ride out....

Some time ago we rode out with some friends to a James Intvelt gig in Holland...
Great fun riding with Bow, Willem and Kuif...hitting the pittoresk city center full throttle...damn those dudes really rode the hell out of this old shit.
Bow on his Pan, Willem & his Early shovel and Kuif burnin' it on his Liberator bobchop....and me trying to hang on for dear life!
You can check out Bow's Panhead chopper in full detail in the current Bigtwin issue, the lib and the Early shovel have been featured in the same Dutch bikermag years ago...go dig the cellar to find that stash of old mags....

Also this weekend....Custom Zone Switserland.

In a few hours we head off to this great Indoorshow in Winterthur / Switserland.
Organisers Manuela and Christoph from Custom Parts & Wear
invited me to take part in the artshow ...
unfortunately not able to drive in style to this event, but that won't spoil a lot of fun with some fine folks and a great show....see you all very soon if you decide to drop by....
Pretty sure you won't regret.
