btw: the very first American Choppers ep. was on last night; the Jet Bike 2002, built for a Laconia, NH contest [that never actually happened]. Wow, OCC sure has come a long way, as has the quality of the video/sound recording. I had seen it originally, but had forgotten.

I woulda headed out that way, but I had surgery on Oct. 20th, and missed two weeks of work. I was broke as hell, and needed to make my car/insurance payment. If surgery was after the meet I definatly woulda headed out that way. But since It wasn't I got a $9 pay check to last me 2 weeks! Thats about 64 CENTS a day!

I found this link, if I may paste...

Mazda Spent and estimated 20 mil in 2003 on the launch??? If they release a new RX they will spend tons.
It's the kind of thing large companies do to burn their brand in the publics brains.
You think zoom-zoom was free? I'll bet they sell a lot of Lugs t-shirts and footwear. And Trim-spa? Fugget about it!
Storm, am I on the right track?
By the way, what really happened to Vinnie?

It's Just advertising for the manufacturer/company that gets a bike built.

I know there was a big controversy about Vinnie and Cody leaving. But that's business and we still love what you guys do at OCC.
Side note: I have an old school OCC hat. Maybe next time I'll wear it.

I can;t really go into details about vinnie and cody leaving, but yes they did open their own (very successful)shop about 5 miles down the road. Go stop by and say hi. Tell them Storm sent you lol. www.vforcecustoms.com
We all miss Vinnie and Cody at OCC, but they had to go and do their own thing. I still go over there every once and a while to say hi.
As for the "on-air" bikes. Yes they are VERY EXPENSIVE, but it's basically an hour long commercial. I'd love a rotory bike or even a mazda bike, but the interest by the company needs to be there. Maybe after mazda of america gets the pictures from the meet they will hop on board, at least for the next meet, and maybe get a bike done.we can only hope.
