Au revoir

Mr. Willie Leake of the 501 Kult  took this nice shot of my old Pan Shovel at the Chop Meet a few weeks ago.  I have to admit I do love this bike but sad to say It is now sold.  Its not going far, and will actually be spending the winter in my garage and won't be a stranger to my garage for some time as my cousin has purchased it under the agreement that i keep it on the road for him.  Shouldnt be much of a problem as this old girl has been been incredibly reliable for me.  i'm moving on to bigger and better (or at least older and less reliable) things. Heres a little peek at whats replacing her.

Huge thanks to my brother Jordan Epp for putting this together.  Great job as always.
Feel free to re-post, share and pass around.

Chop Meet People

The bikes and parts are cool but the people are really what made Chop Meet a success. Young and old, punks and drunks, aged bikers and curious newbies..  Women and kids.  Old freinds were re-connected and new friends were made.  Huge props to those that travelled from afar, especially those that made trek from Winnipeg, Regina and Prince Albert.  The last picture really sums up the day.  Two total strangers at the start of the day, brothers by the end.   Thank you so much to everyone that attended.  Photos by the ever talented mr. Jordan Epp.  see more at www.antiquatedmule.blogspot.com
