I also got to meet both Matt Hotch and Billy Lane before the BBO. Hotch builds the best bikes IMO. The only down side is they show a lot of bs and not enough fab work, but its still cool. Damn a 20'' rear wheel? I want to see how that looks :)

From what I heard around here Trotta very rarely builds his own bikes...usually independent builders do them for him...but some of them are still bad ass... :thumbsup:

Hot rodders could learn a lot from the custom bike scene. They take more chances with style, color selection and fabrication. Their projects have more "attitude". Sure, some of the ideas get carried away, but a lot of it is real cool like alternative wheel colors/finishes and oneoff detail items.
Nothing wrong with rallye stripes silver paint and shiny wheels, but it would be cool if more hot rodders mixed things up a little. The Killer Customs 69 is a good example. That car really stands out.

My friend Eric Gorges competed on that show against Cory Ness. Eric owns Voodoo Choppers (http://www.voodoochoppers.com/) in Rochester, Michigan. He lost, but then how do you compete against Ness and his fathers sprawling fortune and resources? I was proud of him though...he did the best he could for a small bike shop from Michigan.
