easyrider atlanta .

Had a great weekend at the show. It was nice to see all my out of town friends.Business was great all day. we were swamped on the lot so that really made me feel good about what we are doing .I want to apologize to all my friends from the home town that I didn't really get to hang out with all of y'all. Thanks to everyone for coming through.

Come and meet me at the Easyriders Tour in Atlanta GA

Be sure to stop by the booth, grab a Builders Manual and talk to some really nice guys that are bringing the Next Generation to your home town!

I will have the Cathy's Help bike on display, so please donate if you are able to.

second grade inspiration

It amazes me where we get our inspiration in life  and how things come about .Today at my oldest sons veterans day program the kids made a great point at the end ... Its not the governor that gave us freedom. For sure its not the politicians that did it for us . It is for sure not the president that did it for us .All of life is dictated by dick heads wearing suits and talking a lot of none relative bull shit for a fat pay check.All of this country's VETERANS are the men and women that give us our freedom . They are the ones that die for us to have what we have today . So soon every one forgets these guys every time you crank you bike we should says thanks to a solider for giving us this right . Next time you see your local politician tell him to kiss your ass . The next time you meet a vet shake his hand and tell him thank you for all he has done for you .

Thanks where thanks is due

I want to take a few minutes of your time all of the people that fallow my blog to give thanks to the people  that really believed in me and helped me get to and where I'm going in this business . It was a complete honor and a once in  alive time chance to be brought into the limp nickie lot. Having been in the bike business for several years, never really had the opportunity to go to another level . Chris Callen and Tabor Nash  saw something in me for some reason a couple years ago at the  skate park in daytona . I was just bored and wanted to work so that's what i did .  i went down to the limp nickie lot and started hanging out picking up trash helping move stuff around set up for the show just odds and ends  what ever i could do. The day that i had to leave they asked me to be a member of the lot  so here we are today . My business grows every day thanks to Tabor and Chris .I want to continue to grow with the limp nickie lot into what it will become over time . I will continue to do all i can do tho help you guys when ever i can or how ever you need me . Chris and Tabor you are brothers to me in what time i have known you have become family thanks for everything  you have done

Thank you Licks Cycles

Big props need to go out to Licks Cycles! Since coming home from Daytona, we are in the process of getting the motorcycle back to tip top shape. One of the biggest issues to deal with was the headlight so we reached out to our friends at Licks for help. Todd and AJ are spot on guys that work their butts off for their company. They have sent in this  beautiful headlight for the bike as a donation.

 

To get help, just by cross promoting is huge.  We are forever grateful.

If you are looking for quality motorcycle parts with great customer service, please check them out!

Thank you Jay Allen and the Broken Spoke Crowd

While we were at the Broken Spoke Saloon on Thursday for Limpnickie Lot/ Cycle Source night, the all –around great guy ,Jay Allen called me up to the stage. I didn’t know what he wanted but I was absolutely floored with the outcome. He had me explain Cathy's Help and introduce the bike to the massive crowd. Jay then handed me $100 from him, then Jeremy from S&S Cycles hits him with a $100.00 . Heading off stage ,a spokesperson from MOJO energy drink shows up and donates another $100.00. I was baffled, yet amazed and proceed to walk off stage only to be surrounded by people in the crowd handing me donations and well wishes. I still can’t believe this has happened and realized that we received $400.00 from the one night.

I would like to thank Jay Allen for his time and kindness. A big thank you to Mojo , but most of all everyone that reached into their pockets to help me. I know how hard it is for everyone and to see such a great display of mankind, will forever be in my heart. Please know that we will show who will receive the donations here real soon.

Jeremy

ADAM ANDREW PEARCE @ Yahoo! Video

You are missed by all!

At the lot

Big thanks to the limpnickie lot crew for dispalying the bike all week. Been told that it is getting alot of press. Can't wait to get her home

Thanks Street Chopper

for helping us spread the word about Sturgis! really happy to see the bike getting some press.

My Bike is heading to Strugis

Big thanks to Steve at MT Customs for carrying the bike to Sturgis. I won’t be there as Nicole is almost ready to have the baby. Too close to fly, we don’t want to chance anything. I am blessed to have friends in the Limpnickie Lot that are showcasing the bike to shine some light on Cathy’s Help. Be sure to stop by the broken Spoke campground and give what you can. Brian and I will get the donation into the right hands. The Limpnickie Lot rules!

Here is the release that went out yesterday!

Throughout the 2010 season the Limpnickie Lot has adopted a new practice under the direction of Lisa Ballard called the "Limpnickie Lot Footprint" in order to give something back to each community they visit. These included pizza and skateboarding with Boys and Girls club Kids, food drives for local communities and several other interactions and we are pleased to announce the next step in this action. This year in Sturgis, there will be many footprints left behind from the Limpnickie Lot. Athena" Chickie" Vagabond will be working side by side with three high school bike builders, which happen to be all girls. They competed through assay to win this once in a life time opportunity. The bike will be raffled off at the Broken Spoke Saloon downtown location. Be sure to stop by and support this great cause.

Head on out to the Broken Spoke Campground to meet the Limpnickie Lot builders take a hot lap around the Ol' Fashion Raceway or even give the new "Johnny Chop" Hill Climb a shot. After all of the fun and excitement, come by the Limpnickie Lot trailer. We will have two special bikes on display from our members, Jeremy Johnson of Muttin Cycles and Brian Elliott, of Black Sunshine Customs. Each builder has faced some challenges in their lives but has found a way to move forward..

Jeremy has founded his own organization called Cathy's Help. Cathy Johnson is the inspiration behind his motorcycle and foundation. Cathy is Jeremy Johnson's mother. She lost the fight with breast cancer in 2005. Jeremy has worked hard to find a way to help woman that are fighting breast cancer. Throughout 2010-2011 Jeremy will collect donations for his donation ride to Sturgis 2011. All the donations made to this fund will be given to individual women that are fighting breast cancer. You can see more information at http://muttincycles.blogspot.com.

Brian and Mary Elliott's son, Brodin, was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma in January of 2003. He was just 2 years old at the time. Treatment for childhood brain tumors is extremely invasive and difficult. Brian created Black Sunshine Customs as an escape from the stresses that surrounded the illness his boy was battling. His love of the motorcycles, the metal working, and the creativity involved allowed him to stay balanced and face the daily decisions and pressures. It was the only thing he found to be his "outlet" and "break" from it all. Today, Black Sunshine Customs stands strong and despite everything, nearly 7 years later, Brodin is loving life! The Elliott's have found many ways to "give back" as a result of their experiences and support during this chapter of their lives. Even their 12 year old daughter, Myia, managed to single handedly collect and head up a Christmas toy drive that exceeded $4,000 for the pediatric oncology department of the St. Louis Children's Hospital last year. This year's efforts will be donated to the National Children's Cancer Society. More information regarding NCCS can be found at  www.nationalchildrenscancersociety.com.

We will be accepting donations and the proceeds will be divided and used for both causes. If you or anyone would like to donate and will not be on location for Kathy's Help, please go to http://muttincycles.blogspot.com.

Rob Keller will be heading up a ride to the Pine Ridge Reservation to raise awareness for the Lakota people there. Each year we ride into Sturgis and pay little attention to the communities around us. The Pine Ridge Reservation is one such community and the people there are in dire straits. They face challenges from being one of the most impoverished areas in the country, water delivery issues from uranium poisoning and unemployment. While the Lot can't fix all of these issues at once, we felt that a good place to start is to introduce our people to their people.

So on August 13th The Limpnickie Lot would like to invite everyone to ride along with them as we take a tour to visit that Oglala Lakota nation at the pine ridge reservation. This 150 mile road trip from the Sturgis County line will take us on a true ride through the history of their people. We will go through Wounded Knee, the Bad Lands and finally end up on Pine Ridge for an afternoon of fun with the Kids from the reservation. There will be a ride in chopper show that will be judged by the natives. While the judging is taking place, The Lot will host a softball with the kids from the Pine Ridge Boys and Girls Club and also enjoy a good old-fashioned cookout.

So come and join us! The ride will leave the Broken Spoke at 10 AM and everyone is welcome spend some time with Generation X as we bring bike week to a small a community that will really appreciate our attention. If you have ever been one of our rides, you already know what to expect. If not, don't miss this opportunity to hang with the crew and see what they do best! That's entertainment.
