Wrecking Crew T-Shirt Sparkin Hot
Wrecking Crew T-Shirt Sparkin Hot
Wrecking Crew T-Shirt Artist Edition #2: Charlie Lecach: „Sparkin' hot“ Charlie Lecach is what you could call a multi motorista: He’s driving his hot rod up and down the Cote d’ Azur, and is wearing down his blue jeans and his tools with and around motorcycles. He’s been writing for the international bike press about bike history for the last 30 years, and has been translating every W&W text into immaculate French for almost the same time. If he doesn’t spend his evenings in his private museum filled with rare Harley & Indian themed photos, mementos and collectibles, he also swings a mean pen to come up with illustrations such as this one of a 1947 WLR prototype racer, as ridden by his personal friend and Harley racing legend Leo J. Anthony. In this instance, the rider is a #5 H-D racing spark plug though :) About the Artist Edition: Living the chopper life in this world, a rally here, a custom show there, it’s hard not to stumble across awesome apparel and T-shirts with absolutely out there print art. After the second or third beer turns out you have been chatting all the time with just the man doing it, that art we mean, and sure enough he’s having a couple of ideas for another great T-shirt. That’s more or less the story behind our Wrecking Crew dept. new "Artist Edition" of T-shirts. There’ll be wrenching and riding themed motif T-shirts, painstakingly printed on solid shirts we’re sure of that they’ll stand up to a few more miles than the usual cheap stuff. All "Artist Edition" shirts will be strictly limited to 100 shirts, no reprints, zilch, nada. If the smiley next to your size glows red and doesn’t smile anymore, sorry, too late.

Wrecking Crew T-Shirt Never Stop Kicking
Wrecking Crew T-Shirt Never Stop Kicking
Wrecking Crew T-Shirt Artist Edition #1: Matt Wilkins: „Never Stop Kicking“ Matt Wilkins’ (nom de plume Matt Sabbath, probably a big fan of Ozzy?) is a native of the green and pleasant island, but for some reasons prefers the warmer shores of Barcelona. Our guess: it’s the food, and of course the weather :) Our guys in Spain didn’t have much pushing to do to make this happy coincidence a reality. The words probably have crossed the mind of many Sportster owners – closely followed by the thought, namely, that an electric starter might have its … but another kick or three couldn’t surely hurt … and Matt suddenly was the guy to bring them stylishly to life.

The Other End of the Road
The Other End of the Road
CUBIC INCHES AND CLARITY IN THE ARCTIC. The world all of a sudden gets clear, translucent and clean at 40 below. Only your own eyes are foggy with the exhaust of two Harley-Davidsons on the ice road, that on milder days as the Mackenzie River flows peacefully into Beaufort Bay. Up there, at Tuktoyaktuk, North West Territories, Canada. This book is a shot at trying to bring home some of the feelingS of riding two Harley-Davidsons in 2008 over ice roads to one of the most northern points on the American continent that can be reached with ROADGOING vehicles. Without getting into a well known situation round here: "Don’t get stuck in Tuk!“ Doing it can be a lot of things, but it isn’t half as dangerous as some people would like you to believe, given a certain amount of planning and preparation. And it wasn’t the first time, that W&W Cycles went out of everyones way to ride roads no one usually cares to call roads. In 1995 it was the MUD OF NO RETURN. The Panamericana Highway between Panama and Colombia. The Problem: a gap in the road. Not any ole pothole, but the infamous Darien Gap. The attempt to cross 70 miles of trackless jungle on two specially prepared rigid framed Pans and Shovels ended in bottomless mud. In 2005 we went to EAT DUST. We took four vintage Harleys down the gravel Ruta 40 to Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, to the southernmost beer in the world. And just there, sipping a well earned Beagle beer, the question popped up, how the other end of the road might look like. No one around knew, so we decided to have a look. Said, done, ridden, frozen, printed. So, get your fireplace going, grab a drink and turn the page. And don’t forget: A BIKER’S WORK IS NEVER DONE. ’Cos the next road is waiting around the corner.
