    Nick’s bike is super impressive! He’s very proud of the work he’s done and I love hearing about it. The best is when he sends me videos of a new update he’s made to his bike!

    Nick’s bike is more impressive in person then in these pictures. The pride and dedication he has put into making this bike what he has wanted goes beyond diligence, perseverance and quality. Not only is he doing what he loves, but teaching his children a love for not only mechanics, motorcycles but pride and enjoyment!
