Tom Waits

The king of cool for sure.I'm not sure whether his older stuff makes me want to drink or if my drinking makes me want to listen to his older stuff.Currently listening to Tom Waits streaming radio..........Alvarez

One Badass Shovelhead!!

Dug this gem out of the Feb 93 issue of Biker..one of the coolest Shovels I have ever seen..lots of handmade parts tastefully done in aluminum and black, built with a purpose in mind..you just have to dig it and if you don't fuck it..I DO!!! Roadside

Whatever happened to....??

Prison Bike shows..I know they were pretty popular in the 70's and early 80's but by the mid 90's they were pretty much gone, if anybody knows of a current one, drop me a line..I'll do whatever I can to get it some exposure..Roadside

Two of the best..

Take a good look at these BIKERS on the left is Smitty from SPIRAT Enterprises and the other is none other than Rogue, a true Freedom Fighter if there ever was one, this shot was taken in Daytona in 1986, just goes to show you who really lives the life and who doesn't because I see these guys STILL at every Daytona or Sturgis or even on the road somewhere in between..I just hope that I can live up to the standards they don't even know they set for the rest of us!!! Roadside

Hey Clay...

Hey Clay just let me know when you get tired of tripping over that rigid Pan frame in your Florida room at your house and I will come take it off your hands..it's the least I could do for you, I mean what are friends for?? Roadside

My idol!!

My Dad in his shop behind our house, this pic was taken sometime in the mid 70's not really sure when and neither is he but this shows how happy my Dad was back then and now..he truly is the kind of man I can only hope to follow and learn from..Roadside

A true American legend..

Here's a shot of me with Pete Hill at the Gulfport, Mississippi drag strip Memorial Day 1991..if you've never seen his blown Knuckle in person or ever saw him put it down the strip you owe it to yourself to at least try to make that happen..for everything you have done for drag racing, THANK YOU!!! Roadside

My Pan..22!!!! years ago....

Packin up shit so I can hopefully sell my house and look what I found, this shot was taken 22 years ago by my first wife while we were out partying with friends..man that brings back some good memories..anyway this Pan is still with me thru it all..everybody needs a good love story now and then...Roadside

A true American landmark..

I'm pretty sure the "hip" people out there will have a problem with me calling this a landmark so let me put it out there..FUCK YOU!!! I sure wish I could've have seen a few shows there but as usual I missed out..Roadside

Cool Sporty..

My good brother Andy out in Phoenix, AZ is building a cool Sporty chop so when I ran across this one by none other than the legendary Denver Mullins I just had to put this up to keep him motivated..he's on the right track with Rudy and Pockets giving him advice and getting Bacon to rebuild the motor but I think as long as he keeps wearing his "Billy Lane" socks he's gonna be just fine..LOL!!! Can't wait to see it finished brother..Roadside

Nice..

I love shit like this because it actually shows you what was available as options or accessories for that particular year..and it's just plain fuckin cool!!!

Collector's issue???

Definitely one of my all time favorites issues of Tattoo Magazine, the beautiful Pulsating Paula on the cover as well as some excellent pics and article on the Bandidos MC and some of their tattoos, enjoy..Roadside

Chicks..

For some reason chicks dig FXR's..I'll be damned if I care either way!!!! Just scored a 92 FXRP out in sunny AZ. thanks to my good brother Pockets..look for pics soon..Roadside

Billy The Kid!

Dennis Hopper received a star on the Hollywood walk of fame Friday just months after it was announced that he is suffering from terminal cancer. He has always been a true maverick on and off the screen from his roles in B-biker flicks as well as classics like Easy Rider and Rebel Without a Cause to real life antics such as pulling a knife on Rip Torn , destroying hotel rooms and having major acid freak outs(all that just during the making of Easy Rider.) I was saddened to see coverage of the 73 year old actor looking drawn, gaunt and weak on Friday. Good vibes your way, man!............Alvarez

My grandma grocery getter..

Here's my 51 Chevy..I know she looks boring in this pic but her future holds a set of Coker wide whitewalls on red rims with 58 Chevy Biscayne hubcaps lowered front and rear 2 inches and painted flat black..a true Led Sled in the making..Roadside

One my Dad built..

Here's a Pan that my Dad and uncle built in 1970..this is almost exactly how my 46 Knuckle is going to look so now some people will know where I learned to recognize true chopper style..enjoy with more home pics coming soon..Roadside

Thanks Pockets and Rudy!!!

I recently recieved a nice care package from two of the coolest mofos a dude could know..Pockets and Rudy from Phoenix,AZ..among my surprises were a couple of anti social taillight lenses as well as a Dec 1969 issue of Big Bike which is when I was launched into this cruel world!! THANKS GUYS!!! Hope to see ya'll soon...Roadside

Death of a Big Star!

Alex Chilton dead! What a career this guy had. Wrote the Boxtops hit "The Letter" when he was fourteen.Went on to found influential band Big Star and produce groups like the Cramps and was imortalized in the Replacements "Alex Chilton."

Indian Larry..

If you haven't gotten your copy of Cycle Source's Indian Larry tribute issue already...then what the fuck are you waiting for?????? Once again Chris, excellent work!!!!

Drag racing SoCal style..

As usual I was flipping thru some of my old mags and saw this and thought it would look really good up here..enjoy..Roadside Marty
