Tomahawk chop
We officially released the beast at Casey’s garage August 7, 2010.
Congrats Casey ! And welcome to the Tomahawk tribe.
Many thanks to you and John for the awesome photos.
Toecutter first start:
Toecutter 1st day out !
The birth of that new Peugeot almost brought tears to my eyes !
Still tuning the carb, variator, engine spring and gearing…
Sorry, I had to ride to the Hollywood sign again… it’s becoming a ritual for every new bike I build.
Casey, gear up ! If everything goes well, I’m planning on delivering this weekend. – cn
