Shovel trike - seen in Rijen today




Now that is one raw shovel bobber!

Seen at the opening of L&L Choppers' shop in Rijen today.

Love those tyres and yellow headlight. Reminds me of Muhammad Ali's quote: "I'm so mean, I make medicine sick!

I went to the opening of L&L's new shop in Rijen. Many thanks for the hospitality! Great people, bikes, atmosphere, coffee and cookies and most importantly a wonderful shop, also with a Tokyo Thug Corner.
