Chicago Blackhawks win in OT

Watched the Blackhawks vs the Red Wings game tonight.  Glad the Blackhawks won.  Hoping they can pull it out and beat the Red Wings.  Will be pretty tough to do though.  Looks like it might be a repeat Stanley Cup playoffs.  Detroit vs. Pitt. Again.


The hit Kronwall put on Havlat was insane.  Hopefully Havlat can come back in the series and play after a hit like that.  He was out cold for a little while on the ice.

Bobby Martinez Wins Teahupoo Contest

Bobby Martinez won the Teahupoo Surf contest today edging out Taj Burrow.  Hopefully I did better on my Fantasy Surfer to get me out of the bottom of the pack!

Getting Caught Up on Work

Been super busy working on a Brand Book for Fatal1ty Digital Gaming Gear.  Tonight should be the last of the revisions and off to the printers tomorrow.  I need to get back to working on finishing the new Joyrides Showcase for the Joyrides website. It's about a month over due.  So it will be top priority to get it up soon.  Also, on baby watch.  Wife is due very soon. In the meantime, here's a shot I took of Nelson Kanno awhile back.  Enjoy.

California Screamin 4 Show

So I took the family down to El Segundo to the California Screamin show put on by Gasoline this past Saturday.  Took a few pictures of the event.  Some cool cars and bikes and there was a lot of very good art in the art show.  






















And Tim from Syndicate was there with my other amigo, Pac Man.

The Red Bike

This was a bike Brandon Holstein of Brawny Built built for Joe O’Keefe. Joe is a friend of Jerry who is the owner of the Rusty Nail. The Rusty Nail is a Panhead that Brandon had also built. (Stay tuned for a full story on Brandon and the Rusty Nail on a soon to be updated Joyrides Art Co. website.) Once Joe had seen Jerry’s bike he wanted Brandon to build him a bike, but on a smaller budget. The bike uses a Freddie Hernandez frame but is 6” up. Has a 80” Evo with stock Harley mags, Rev Tech 4 speed transmission, 39mm with 4” extended forks. 









Brandon also fabricated a few parts on the bike. He fabricated the “T” bars and narrowed a late model Sporty tank. He also made the pipes. Brandon also made the foot controls while the other side is a stock FXE. The fender and tail light is from Bossley Cycles, a Todd’s Cycle seat pan was used and Maricio from Azteca Customs wrapped the seat with a Fab Kevin seat pivot. “That thing’s bitchin. Made out of stainless steel” Brandon said.







Performance Machine Classic hand controls. Has a Crane ignition with a Chopper Dave air cleaner. John “Candy” Edwards laid down the paint. The frame was powder coated and Brandon had John match the paint to that. The final bike came out amazing and Joe was happy with the final outcome.

This bike is also currently featured in The Horse Magazine.

The Disappearance








Started out the day out on the ocean.  Had to shoot the Body Glove boat, The Disappearance, for a ad.  The Disappearance is owned and operated by co-founder of Body Glove, Bob Meistrell.
