On the Sunday that I was to shoot the bikes from Speed Metal I was waiting at the Evil Souls shop for Lucas and Dave to show up. While I was waiting I took some shots of the Chevy Truck sitting just outside to kill some time.

Part Timer Steve Glennon-Part 1
Steve Glennon. I met Steve a few years back through Irish Rich. I had the opportunity to go to Denver last year and spend a few days with Irish Rich and do a photo session with Steve. His 08 Custom Rigid he calls Point P-Funk was a project he started with the help and guidance of Irish Rich of Shamrock Fabrication. Steve got the nick name from Rich as Part Timer Steve because he divides his time working with Rich and bartending at a local bar in Denver. His passion for motorcycles led him out to Denver and he instantly struck up a friendship with Irish Rich that they still share today. In fact this bike featured now has been completely redone and is being ridden out from Denver to Orange County for the Born Free 3 show. I'm pretty sure as I type this that Steve is out putting some miles on it getting it ready for the ride to California. Irish Rich is one of the invited builders to showcase their bikes at the show. So look out for Irish Rich and Part Timer Steve as they will have one of the best bikes there for sure. Check out Steve's blog here. Speed and Glory. You know Irish Rich's blog. Applied Machete.

Broomsfield, Colorado Part 3
Spent the day with Irish Rich all day Monday. I shot some photos of his shop and we sat down and did a interview. Later in the day "Part Timer Steve" showed up on the bike he and Rich built together. Steve rides it everywhere. I will have the photos of that and the story behind it later on.
Waiting inside right now for a lighting storm to pass by and it's back out on the lake for more wakesurfing. Aloha Beach. The Denver people know the history of this place. Rich told me some goodies that happened here back in the day.
Denver Colorado
Flew out of Long Beach airport today to Denver Colorado. Staying with family up there on a private lake. Get some wakeboarding and surfing in over the next few days and then it's time to get some work done. Monday plan to hang with Irish Rich and begin work on the next Joyrides Art Company showcase. Denver Dan has made some calls to his buddies for me so I look forward to hooking up with them also.
Downtown Denver.
