Okay so when I first started MH Bikes and Co. I did everything by myself which sucked. But none the less was fun too. The side of town I lived on was.... let's just say bad. It was predominately a Black and Mexican neighborhood. Cops in the hood every night for something. Couldnt take my build outside with people stareing at me with glares. So you'd just have to give them no respect when they were quote unquote "Hatein." Although it wasn't always that bad. I actually bumped into other bike builders who worked on Lowriders and got a few biz cards from people asking me to come work for them. I wanted my own shop and business so I always turned'em down. But anyways yeah it was bad. Where Ilive now it's really suburban and if you get bad reviews while rideing it's usually a chuckle from a teenager or some rich snob. But the shop where me and my freind work at which is his apartment is out in the country so it's a really nice change to see some farmer wave at you and say "I use to do that when I was 18-19 myself"
