The party's on

Not sure if this is the place to put this but here goes anyways. We are remodeling the shop to better accomidate our customers. We've added a showroom and updated our service department. We are having an open house on the 29th on this month ( august ) and inviting everyone we know and hopeing to meet alot of people from the forum. We are located at 12129 N. 700 West, Elwood, Indiana 46036.About 35 miles north of indianapolis. We will be grilling some sort of dead animal and all the cold beverages and other party favorites you can handle. You can camp onsite and we will be having a bonfire and burnout contest and whatever other mayhem we can think of. This is an open invite and we are trying to put togather some sort of ride and will be excepting donations to help out a local charity. Shop will be open for anyone that needs parts or repairs to get them back on the road. We are located out of city limites so you wont have to worry about the local law enfocement . All we ask is that everyone have a good time and keep it real. No drama, no bullshit. Thanks and hope so see alot of you here. Thanks , Mike

Welcome to drop by anytime. If you're vacation plans are to ride down antwhere close, stop in and hang out for awhile. Always have a little extra room for the traveler.

You betcha!

I bitch and moan (this will stun Mutt!) but Indiana has some great riding. Trouble is, it takes 1-1/2 hours of riding to get there...

Lemme scratch on it... but count me in!

Re: The party's on

Ok, got some new batteries for the camera show I can show you all my new concrete aproach to the shop and a couple projects we have going on. The bricks in the approach are old star stamped bricks from the old sidewalks they tore out in town a few years ago. Been saving them for a project, just never new what untill now. The next pic is of the new unfinished showroom. Should have enough room to put 3 or 4 bikes in plus all the parts and stuff we sell. The orange sporty came to us looking all kinds of fugly and the customer wanted something different. I don't know, but he's happy. The one on the frame jig is the lonely truimph I started back in the winter. Since I opened up shop, I have'nt had time to finish it. I'm not complaining, just tired uf seeing it in this sad state. the last sporty is one we picked up a couple weeks ago. Belonged to a chick and has'nt ran in about 4 years. Had fatbob tanks and old skull dash that was painted black and pink. needless to say, the paint has got to go. I'm open to ideas on this one. Thinking maybe a hok heavy flake green with some pearl white scallops? Enjoy, and give me some ideas on painting pinky the sporty. lol
