St Patrick's Day Ride

 Out back of Apple Jack's Basement Bar...the fire was still going from last night

 Keeping an eye on the "Dirty Nine" as H.O.G. types marveled at it's filth...
A stop at Van Sant Airport to watch the gliders. On any given Sunday in the summer the driveway in the picture above is lined with all types of cycles...today not so much...

It was a fantastic day for a ride. I fired up the "Dirty Nine" and Kelly and I headed out for a trip through the country and down the Delaware River... stopping along the way for lunch and the occasional adult beverage. One of my favorite spots is Apple Jacks in Point Pleasant PA. I only took a couple of pictures...the night is young...

Grant and Mel on Late 1930's 45's

 Grant Bauch on his 1939 WLD

Mel Christianson 1936 RL

A couple of oldies from Lee. The 1939 WLD is one of my all time favorite year and model 45's other then Race Modules.

1938 and 1939 ELs

1938 EL

1939 EL

Lee sent me some cool pics. Here are his '38 and '39 ELs. The man has impeccable taste in motorcycles!
When I asked him if I could post them he replied  "If you think anyone would like to see them. Just a bunch of rusty old junk"...Yeah...Right!

Danish 1940 Knuckle

Christian's 1940 EL...just the way I love 'em!

Christian from Denmark sent me this pic of his fantastic 1940 EL. I love that 1940 only cam cover!

Mystery Pillion Pad

 Mystery Pillion Pad



 Compared to a Bates


I have had this NOS Pillion Pad for many years. I have never seen another one like it. It's 10 inches by 8 inches and weighs over 4 pounds. The color and design are strange to me...especially the weight and density of the pad, not to mention the 14 mounting holes!
Any ideas?

65 Pan in 2000 from the Lost Floppy's

 Done and Running 2000. This bike transformed many times while I owned it.


Under construction with my old '55 in the background. The '55 is now in Norway.

Just after it caught fire at Oley PA in 2000. The sign says "Fires Right UP!!" This pic was scanned and not on the floppy. Greasy finger print to the left of my head is an indication.
