Quote of the week:
"I miss you - love you . . . but, I love choppers more."
Fast Mothers ! - MAMA TRIED
One aspect that made this show unique was the variety of motorcycles on display.
- Real Race Bikes (not just wanna-be race bikes)
- Real Race Bikes (not just wanna-be race bikes)
There's a lot of customs out there with race parts - which is cool . . . but, it's easy to get confused with a real race bike, or a retired race bike. Real race bikes serve only one purpose - to go fast. To go fast in a certain direction for a fixed amount of time.
Leave Wednesday for the Show - Saturday !
Fuel Cafe for lunch. ( I have 180 photos ) MAMA TRIED
Living Lost - Josh Kurpius
The Mama Tried Show is the reason. The other reason is Living Lost by Josh Kurpius at the Harley-Davidson Museum. I want to see the photos. I want the dirty, greasy and envious feeling I'll get when I view the history Josh captures of his trials & travels with his friends. Friendships forged on the road, on motorcycles, on vintage choppers especially, most likely last forever.
Pictured above: Josh's trusty 1000cc Sportster which is captured in a very rare moment of repair.

Class C Racing
This racer has his street bike outfitted for a race. Low bars, big tank, fender pad, early XLR shocks . . . he's ready to go the distance. He probably found out later to ditch the high-pipe, bore the carb(X-9 butterfly), XLR pipes . . . then maybe cams, turn the cylinders . . . or just sell it and buy a boat.
