Orange County Choppers

Don't know if any of you caught the holiday program or not.
We were able to get a little free publicity off this show . They spotlighted our webpage in exchange for us letting them use our single seat sleigh to pattern the sleigh Paul built for their Santa bike this year.
Pretty cool as they got donations from Wal-Marts and delivered Christmas gifts to needy children.
We were out to the Chopper chop in NY last year and visited with SR Mikey and Junior in Sturgis this last bike run . Pretty decent folks.

Err, you saying that they spotlighted DTR or your site? Didn't know you had a site.

Or do you work for Wal-Mart?

Man thats a little trailer. I would think you would want a little longer one so you could fit more buggies on it. That way you could save that one for when you have to fit into a tite area with a lot of traffic and tite corners.

Cool buggys...

I'm sure that all of their traits are exaggerated by the filmers... If they really annoyed each other like they show constantly, they wouldn't be together.

He doesn't seem to much of a jerk to me... Just a father and a boss who makes money by acting like a jerk.
