behind The Eight Ball





the top picture is an Indian bobber that is owned by David Edwards of Cycle World.  It was built by John Bivens back when Jerry Greer owned the shop.  It is a really cool bike that has been an inspiration over the years.  Yes, I will own another Indian.  They are like a bad habit that you can't kick.


The Chief pictured above was built by John Donavon in Vallejo, CA.  I met him shortly before he passed away and he was a very cool guy.  You can see the similarities between the two bikes.  Not sure which one came first.  This is probably my all time favorite bike !
