Tahoe City Run 2009?

This is my favorite place.  Jack Carver and his family built this cabin with their own hands in '78, no frills but it's as perfect as it gets.  The lake is at the bottom of his street and the Sherwood bowl @ Alpine Meadows is at the top.  I try to get out West to spend time there as often as possible, adding to the great memories I've already stockpiled.  I'm lucky to be able to call Jack my friend.

I'd love to pack up my bike and drive from MA to Lake Tahoe summer 09.  Anyone game?

Side table

One more archived picture of a piece of furniture I made a while back.  I have some new pieces in the works that should be finished soon.

Another XS pic

Just posting a couple pictures of the tank and tail section together.  Gotta get the front end on soon so I can decide on bar design.

Knife fight

Another photo dug up from the way back machine.  I took a knifemaking class at the craft center I used to teach at and this is what I came up with.  Forging hot metal is so fun, I want to build a knife forge in my shop.   

Some furniture bits

I finally found where I had stashed some photos of furniture and other bits I designed/built.

Tail section

Here's some progress pics on the tail section of the XS.

I can remember waking up at 4am when I was a kid so I could watch "The Road Warrior"on my half-assed movie channel called "The Preview Channel".  I don't know if anybody else remembers this, but subscribers would get this box with one button on it that would de-scramble a UHF channel so you could watch movies that they would run.  This was so long ago it was before I knew anybody with a VCR.

Well, this post is for my friend Terry Parker.  He is a collector and fanatic of all that is Mad Max.  Copies of the movie scripts, original artwork, and even a replica of Toecutter's KZ.  Terry's a talented fabricator who builds some cool bikes.  I'll be fabbing a tank and bars for his next build, not because he can't, he just want's to build it with parts his friends have had a hand in.
