Squirrel Saturday!!

Saturday was a fun-filled day! Since my shock broke on Friday I had to get it repaired since the weekend was gonna be so nice. Wesley  gave me a set of stock shocks off his 77 sporty prior to the hardtail. Mounted the shocks and got a call that Brett was starting his 1958 Panhead. Ken, Neil, Kevin, Brett and Dwayne were working on the front end before getting it off the lift. The bike kicked right over without any adjustments.



 Pootergirl stickers are popping up everywhere. Ken and Brett put them on their Panheads and Brett also has them hanging in the shop. We also found this baby squirrel and she is the new shop squirrel. Debbie is looking to rehab it. Kevin also helped me remove the seals on my old shocks to transfer over to the set Wesley gave me. Hit up the local Waffle House cause the leftovers were getting old. They gave Kevin these pins to add to his collection. I hope everyone enjoyed the time with family and friends and found something to be thankful for this week. Hope the rest of the weekend is safe and the week as well. Have a great one!

My Adventure!

Thanksgiving was a great time! You would think I was cooking for an army. I cooked for 4 people.
Then after cooking and eating my dog and I relaxed on the couch while Kevin cleaned the kitchen.

The day after Thanksgiving 75 degrees. Perfect day for a beautiful ride on the motorcycle. Then the rear brake cable snaps. I am so lucky to have some great people to come and help. Wesley and Billy came by with a spare cable. Russ and Ray came by with some more tools. Kevin helped supervise the situation.  I can't thank you guys enough for all the help. One day I will help repay you.




After getting the rear brake cable squared away it was on to the HD dealership in Raleigh. Halfway there I hit a pothole and snapped the rear shock. Thank you City of Raleigh. We bunged the shock back in place and rode to Tina's to park it. Then I had to ride the fender on Kevin's bike back home. I am just glad I had foot pegs this time. What a crazy busy day. I am thankful with the brake downs everything went well and safe. Again thank you guys I couldn't have done it without you. 
At Ray Price I met Mark from VA. he has this beautiful 1974 Lowrider Shovelhead. Fantastic bike and I am glad to see that he puts miles on his ride. 

Repaired Rear Brake Cable

Back on the road...many thanks to Russ, Ray, Billie, Wesley, and Kevin!!!! I got it fixed and rolling again.

Broken Brake Cable

Broken rear brake cable....but a nice day to be on the side of the road.

POW/MIA/KIA Bucket

This weekend was a great weekend. I had the pleasure of meeting Wayne Daniels, Randy and Wayne's Son. I actually got to take a ride in the POW/MIA Bucket. What a wonderful experience. What meant more than the ride was hearing Wayne's story on why this car is so special to him. He has sacrificed time money and energy to give back to all the service men and women that have sacrificed for us. Please visit his facebook page www.facebook.com/thepowbucket1 and see the great things he is doing to bring attention to the cause. He does this out of his own pocket and doesn't ask for anything in return. Next time you see the bucket drop a $20 to keep it rolling. It is for a cause much greater than you and I. Thanks Wayne keep it up! I admire your sacrifice.
The best part was the ride!

Heck YEA!! Pootergirl stickers show up in the strangest places!
Video of his leaving the driveway...Yea my phone sucks!

Work Weekend

Sunday Funday never had such a different meaning. My Sunday started off with prepping a roof for shingles for a really good friend-Tina. I was so glad when help from down the street arrived. I would like to thank Pete, Tim, Derrick, Kevin, and the other guy. We roofed, drank beer and my side turned out the best! I know I know I know Pete....Kevin snapped the line. Thanks for teaching me how to put some shingles down if the occasion comes along again. Here are some pictures:









So'full Garage

Devildogs

I would like to wish a Happy Birthday to all the Devildogs out there. Thank you for the commitment that you have given. Raise your glasses to the past, the present, and the future. I pray God watches over all our servicemen and women and keeps them safe.


Thank a Marine today!

When I Am Not Messing With Motorcycles.

So when i am not messing with motorcycles and I clean the grease from under my nails. I do some volunteering for the Marine Corp League. I have taken this year off to relax but will get back in the swing of things next year. I have helped raise money for the Wounded Warrior Battalion at Camp Lejuene, NC. We have a Marine Corps Ball every year to celebrate the Start of the Marine Corps. Here are a few pictures that I got. I am still waiting on more of them and will post more when I get them.
Me and My beautiful friend MJ
