Bike Show On Two Wheels Stockholm
Inge on MCM magazine called me and asked if I could set it up and come to Stockholm with the bike for the show!
Soul course I could, but the show itself is nothing to my taste.
But it was an honor to be asked.
If you like new bikes it's a world class show.
I prefer Old BIKES !!!!!
But quite a nice weekend with some wonderful friends in Stockholm!
Peace / Ring

First Wheels
In Sweden it´s called an A-tractor, in WW 2 there was hard to come across tractors for the farmers so you could build so called EPA-tractors out of a car.
The regulation was that you could only drive it 30 km/h, only keep the two first gears and no suspension on the rear axle. In the mid seventies you couldn´t build a new one because they began to go very fast...
It came out new regulations to build a so called A-tractor to pull big wagons etc. They were not allowed to go any faster than 30 km/h at the highest gear at maximum hp and tourqe.
You can drive it when youre 16 years old. It was often built on heavily customized pickups or modified stationwagons (pickup built because you have to have a flatbed on it) with a frame.
Mine did only 30 km/h when I bought it, a Mazda -77 pick-up. I had it like that for one week then I threw the second gearbox (that made it go slow) in the trashcan.
Now it went 140 km/h insted... But with small inventions incase the police would show up.

BAYONET SISSY FUCK YEAH!!
Jake ``Joilet´´ & Elwood Blues
It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?
My uncle showed me this movie when I was 5-6 years old. It still is one of my all time favourite almost 30 years later.

**True chopper Innovator**
"Dick Allen is an obscure legend among genuine bike builders. His obsession with riding and perfecting the chopper led him to create ingenious products but his lack of entrepreneurship, his voracious appetite for partying and a persistent trail of bad luck prevented him from ever making any money or becoming established as the preeminent chopper builder that he should have been. But maybe that’s the way he wanted it." He didn't try to be a biker...He was one to the end!!!
