Hand-lettered signs, helmets, parts, motorcycles, and all sorts of things I'm interested in.

Moto Guzzi Dealer Sign









This was a real fun one as well. I particularly enjoyed doing the layout on this sign.  I think I'll keep it for myself!

Amal Carburetter Sign



Another one destined for a shop wall somewhere. 

Suzuki Shop Sign



This one was fun to do! I thought I'd do it like it was new, then decided to add some age.

More Kinkora Golf Course Signage




If you're in Chilliwack, go play at Kinkora!

Brett McCormick Injured



One of the reasons I started watching World Superbike again was because of Canada's latest motorcycle hopeful, Brett McCormick. For a Canadian, its nice to see a fellow countryman compete at the international level and do well. I've been following this young racer's career, mostly through Inside Motorcycle magazine's coverage.  I remember the magazine pegging him as a racer to watch, as he was just in his early teens.  Then came the reality series on RadX TV, Canadian Superbike, which showed McCormick's championship season aboard a BMW. The previous year I was watching him race with Michael Jordan's team in the AMA classes in the US, where he did well considering he was brought in to replace an injured rider.  Watching him violently crash out in Assen in the last SBK round was shocking to say the least. We pray for a speedy recovery.

RIP Levon Helm




Levon Helm, of the Band fame , died at the age of 71.  If you can, check out his Electric Dirt album, one of the last he put out.  His cover of Tennesee Jed is fantastic, and there are many stand out originals as well.

These guys play the best song about Moto Guzzis (perhaps the only song?)!
