Branded Nuts & Bolts

Custom bobber seat egg springs. P450 a piece. We make 'em sunny side up.

An old comrade on the road came over as I was about to leave. I just had to see this new horse: an 833 Harley Sportster. Except for the fact that the bike practically had its brand on every part, including the air caps on the tires, the Sportster doesn't really strike me as something special. It's branded, yes. That's one. What else? Red and shiny. Mmmm.. oh look, a cat.


Felt right at home hanging out over this scrapyard of well lined up used bike parts. There's always something old and new to see, and stories to learn from. The flow of colorful characters from simple folk to police to generals - the diverse species of cruisers, sportsbikes, china bikes and what-nots never fail to capture me as we talk about the good bits while under the clink clank of wrenches and mutilated carburetors.


For now this spot will remain to be sacred ground. You never know who might just ride up around the corner. This is GilLandia - THE famous melting pot of everything big on two wheels that you don't know about.
