As requested here are more pics. Since this is Rat Rod Bikes, for the first set I'll stick to the rattier side of the show. I will post the shineyer cars also if you want...Kelly

I fell in love with this one so there are more shots than most of the others.

One more bike because this is a bike site. I can appriciate the work that go into these and some of the paint jobs are incredible.

That red '34 with the white scallops and the red '42 "B Line" trucks are in the current issue of Rod and Custom magazine. I walked past the newstand last week after seeing the GR autorama and thought the two trucks on the cover looked familiar, both guys are out of GR that built them...

That's so Cool!!! I was at the same show... and I took a picture like yours, only I had to stay behind the yellow tape hahahaha.

I did see all the petri bikes, them stingrays got my attention for sure. I couldn't take pictures of them because my camera was out of memory. I really liked that bike with that huge tire on the back!

Small world huh Grand Rapids, Michigan?

Hey Schwinnmesa, that bike you are referring to belongs to Gottavan Dan who is a member here, he commutes to work on that most days. Did either of you get a chance to say to us? We were looking for some of the board members while we were there. We met some really great people there and even found a group of kustom ridders who ride GR every Sunday afternoon during the summer, I'm looking forward to warmer weather and meeting them...Kelly

I'm kicking myself because I thought there would be nobody from this forum that would be there. Turns out I was way wrong lol... I never even checked the bike event topics, otherwise I would be like, "Yea Rat Rod Bikes.com some great stuff there!!!"

But man... they had some great bikes there. Gottavan Dan your bike is awesome I was starring at it more then the cars lol.

Sorry.... I will check the bike event topics more often!

Kelly is right, almost, I ride to work everyday and have for the last 5 years. I'm on my 3rd comuter bike, the winter riding is very hard on them, RUST never sleeps ya know. I only ride the monster tire bike when its nice in the summer. Most of the winter riding is a workout and the ice is scary.

We did get a lot of snow last night too. Very Cool bike. I know what ya mean with the ice... never hit the front brake while turning.
