Unveiling blooper!

I know waiting for updates can be tedious, so here is a fun little mess up that happened while I videoed my bike's unveiling. There is only one blooper, but I sure hope that it entertains you. Eat your heart out David Copperfield!  I promise there will be more updates in the coming week, I will take pictures of the piece that I am making for the winner of the contest, and will reveal them after the winner receives the prize.

Unveiling of My completed Project.

Congratulations to the Winner of the Contest!  

The winning guess was a Motorized Bicycle, which is a pretty accurate description of the early motorcycles, only the engines on modern motorized bicycles like mine don't have 1000cc Displacements.

If you want to learn more about early motorcycles and board track racing, check out Wheels Through Time's website. Wheels through time also has some start up videos of some of the old motorcycles. Believe me when I tell you that there is no more lovely a sound than that of an old motorcycle, the way each push rod, valve, cam and spring add to the tympanic roar of the old engines is simply sublime, but as Lavar Burton says, "don't take my word for it." Go and check out the Big Valve X at the very least.
