The show will feature renowned gig poster artists showing painted Iron 883 tanks and signature poster art along with photography by Adam Wright and Steven Stone. Pick up a poster or splurge on a tank-either way, a chunk of the proceeds go to the CUE Art Foundation.

I have to do a little traveling for work. Normally that would be a bonus, but not this time. While I am away I will be missing the two events I have been looking forward for months!
Friday is Dice Magazine's return to Brooklyn. The issue 28 release party at the Matchless Bar. Saturday is the Brooklyn Invitational Bike show at the Autumn Bowl. The name says it all! Don't be like me. Regret is the worst thing to live with.

After making a strong showing on the Gypsy Run, Biltwell Bill and Crew beelined it to Trent's Ground Zero Throwdown. By all reports Trent knows how to do it right! Look for a full report on the Chop Cult. Photo stolen from Wendy.

Atomic Trent is having his annual Ground Zero Throwdown this weekend.
You would be a fool to miss it!

With only nine days to go to the run, we are running on strong coffee and the hope of a few hours sleep before the 27th. Head on over to the Gypsy Run Site and Check out the latest... like our trophies for the bike show.

For the first time since its inception in 2004, an American custom motorcycle engineer has won the Official World Championship of Custom Bike Building.The winner, Dave Cook of Cook Custom Choppers in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, was voted World Champion by his fellow competitors at an event that defied motorcycle industry downturn expectations. With an increased field totalling 83 custom motorcycles from around the world (compared to 67 in 2008), this year's event is being widely hailed as showcasing the most advanced display of custom motorcycle design and engineering yet seen.The 51 year old Cook is an internationally recognized engineer and creative genius whose passion for design and engineering excellence had seen him be the winningest American in the past two years, having been fourth and highest placed American competitor behind an international top-three in both 2007 and 2008.

Monday is Ride to work day. Not that you need a reason, but here are the Top ten reasons to ride to work. Check out the Ride to Work site.

Don't forget that the Greasebag is this weekend! Go find Grail and buy him a beer. He puts on a great event. We is sponsoring one of the bike show trophies this year, Grail wont tell me what the trophy is for, most likely the best power puff girls tribute bike, I can't wait to find out.

IH Todd had his annual hardcore chopper heavy metal throw-down DC shindig this past weekend. From all reports a good time was had by all. I am still waiting to hear who won the fine Biltwell Helmet we donated for a door prize. Todd tells me that the winner is proving a little hard to pin down. I am sure there is a good story in there somewhere. In the meantime bask in the glory of Todd and a guy showing his boobs for a free T-shirt!

ShortBus (AKA Chris Kuntz) is working hard to make miracles. His goal is to raise $10,000.00 for Riley Children's Hospital. I have meet a lot of unique folks in this motorcycle thing, but Shortbus takes the cake! One of the most upbeat and unflappable people I have ever met. Check out the deal here.
*****UPDATE*****
Ok time to pony up. Let's see some of that famous "biker" charity! This sunday Shortbus is doing his Miracle Ride. It is for a good cause so give a little, you will feel better about yourself.

So much to do this weekend! Here are a few things you don't want to miss.
Todd's Iron Horse Party! Stop by the 9:30 Club and see if you can win the Flat Black Biltwell lid. (donatedbykickstartcyclesupply) Or if you are closer to New York, you can get some culture in Brooklyn. Bar Matchless is hosting the red carpet screening of Free to Wander. Click on the flyers for directions. Have a great weekend everyone!
