U.S. posters with cable TV would probably be familiar with this TV show (maybe other places too?). You knooooow..... The whole New York angst spaleel - Bi_chy Paul Tuttle Senior getting into a rant/argument with Paul Tuttle junior ..... - you know the whole "dis dat and expletive deleted thing"..... (uh - emphasize the dis an dat..
Has anyone seen the episode where the boys just get on the micro scooters and have a whale of a fun time? Even saying in the show that that was one of the "most fun" outings that they had ever had?
Really, IMHO, they should look at OCC-ing a burger, wing, or max. But, being realistic, that might take too long (because, A - they wouldn't know what to do) and a build like that would not garner much attention with the doo-rag V-twin groupy watchers. Sigh, probably a "Neilsen Rating black eye."
One can only wish.... Maybe that idiot on monster garage could pull it off!? :twisted:
I have watched it often and the bikes they turn out maybe are one of a kind art classics and I would love to own one -but I have to tell you I would not be able to go 100 miles with out worrying about something breaking - coming loose - or seizing up .
My life and skin may not be all that important, but it's all I have and I just would not trust it on those bikes.
And owning one just to look at it is not my thing.
They had Mikey's Vino up on a lift and deregulated it - new muffler and all. Might have spiffed up the suspension, too. I don't know if it is the same episode in which Paul Sr. receives an ATV for his birthday, but my mind is connecting the two for some reason.
I also enjoy Southern Steel. A couple of good ol' boys down in Lynchburg, VA REALLY fabricating bikes, not simply assembling them. Although those guys are a little goofy, Gary (ZZ Top clone) is a genius in bike construction. Best of all - no arguing!
ex boyfriends? well now to be PC - they have gotta be be as bad as ex-GFs! (I shouldn't suppose! )
Paul Jr., imo, is full of hisself. but...if i hadda dad like that (diz dat and ananudderthing!) maybe id take the same tack as he. 8)
I like southern steel, 'cept I am a (born) Virginian and i find the schkef/schtick/accent thing they got goin sorta strange (like moddaonna said ina rounda bout way)...but hey - then again - i like banjo music too!
now i do like the lack of angst there (southern steel)....the "owner" tends to be a little more laid back. and whats not to like about the ZZ Top replication of that!? And that guy, for sure, is skilled. As ZZ would say....
Pete a Virginian? Where's your home town? I'm born and breed here in VA. Lynchburg is a big city compared to the little town in which I grew up. Those guys (Southern Steel) talk just like every other person from SW VA (sort of). Lucky them, they have the Blue Ridge Parkway right there!
Norfolk - Didn't stay too long tho. Navy brat. Moved all over all the time. Last time I was there I was living in Fairfax working in McLean. Gotta love the BRP!
They are amusing in a family dynamic sort of way - bit like Ozzies family but in their own idiom.
My fave programme is Norms Yankee Workshop - but I have to go to the Mother-In-Laws to watch that (I do not have satellite here) - so I ain't seen many - but it is brilliant. I wish I had the space and the $$ for a shop like that.
