Chicken Poo

D-T-F-P has got this killer survivor of a 45 for sale. I've been thinking about a 45 project a lot lately (racer maybe). I'm pretty smitten with this one as is though. Apparently came outta a barn looking just like this, but covered in...you guessed it. Anyway. If you're ready to buy then you should go check it out.

Cafe

I usually would plasma cut the dishes in the side of the tanks flip them and then reweld them back in. But this seemed to do a great job. And with a little putty she will look smooth and fast. The stance of the bike is super killer real aggressive. Should have a whack of parts in tomorrow so probably have more pics too.

One for the ladies

So it's valentines day and although this hallmark holiday is usually all but ignored in our house I thought I'd give you guys something that you and your ladies can both enjoy. As some of you know Mrs. Ninjas is a ceramic artist and creates amazingly macabre figurines with agendas. A few years back Carole took me out to Warman to meet an artist named Clint Neufeld. Clint makes ceramic casts of engine parts and then reassembles the entire engine as a ceramic sculpture. The result is fantastic. These life sized motors, tranny's, axles and more are exquisite.


Clint's got a show going up in early March in the Edmonton area.

If you're out that way make sure you take the little lady out to see some culture and check these things out.

Polaris Rescue

Went For a ride yesterday and it was a lot of fun until the sled I was on started making a grinding noise and then stopped going. Something in the chain drive came apart. So we went back and got a Bravo with a sled to rescue it.

And of course we naturally stopped for a beer on the way back
