Tom's view of the Smokey Mountain Chopper Fe...

Here are a few of the shots I came up with at the 1st annual Smokey Mountain Chopperfest in Franklin NC.

I had a tube failure just outside of town with in 15 minutes of  leaving town. Luckily it was only sprinkling and not pouring. We got a truck dropped off loaded the bike up and went out to catch the party.

Josh at Saladin Cycles (he's a boss by the way!) hooked me up with a new tube the next day and we stuck it on with the first round of hang overs still ringing in our heads. Much thanks to our friends who put us up and let us use your house! We really need to come up there more often!

These guys are rulers in case you didn't know.

My bike at the top of the hill on the way out.

This has been referred to as our "we broke the Prospects" photo. These boys worked and partied hard all weekend! You made us proud.

Some of our line up in front of  our camp. Stay tuned for video of the white and purple ironhead flying!

Some good fellers in this shot!

Here's one snapped on the run in.
