NAHBS 2010 took place in Richmond, VA this weekend at the Greater Richmond Convention Center. For those that aren’t familiar with this industry event, it’s basically the Interbike for handmade bike frames, parts, and even gear. Everything from wooden bikes to leather riding shoes and custom designed / machined parts from manufacturers like Sylvan Wood Composites, Dromarti Leather, and White Industries.

I’ve been riding a 2006 Moment for three years now. The quality of the bike and the level of responsiveness in the suspension is simply amazing. Over the course of those three years, I have developed some relationships over at Ellsworth Cycles primarily due to my boy Donald going to work for them.

What Do Motorcycles Have To Do With Bicycles?
Nothing…other than the fact that they roll on two wheels and are cool too. But I’m not writing this post because motos are cool. I’m writing this post because what I experienced at this Orange County Choppers unveiling for the Monster Diesel custom build truly surprised me. And I think you’d enjoy hearing about it.

Paul Teutul Sr. bombed. And in my opinion, he bombed hard; voice cracking, stumbling, forgetting the product name he was endorsing, loosing his train of thought, and even forgetting to talk about the custom built chopper parked right in front of him…
