    Thumbs down Lance's New Bike

    Lance will be on Leno Tonight. The Orance County Chopper guys from the Discovery Channel will be presenting him with this...


    Definitely not my favorite of his bikes!

    hmmmm... a chopper.

    I would peg Lance as more of a sportbike kind of guy (like me)... lots of speed, manueverability, aerodynamic.

    I just can't visualize him on that thing.

    Very thoughtful paintjob though...
    no regrets!

    My ride: 2003 Specialized Allez Comp - zebra (men's 52cm), Speedplay X5 pedals, Koobi Au Enduro saddle

    Maybe he'll auction it off on EBay as a benefit to the charity??

    Please Lance! Auction it off... buy a nice yellow Ducati.
    no regrets!

    Thumbs up

    While I am certainly not the chopper type - I have to give thumbs up to Orange County Choppers for the thought and effort (not to mention the $$$) that went into their tribute to Lance.

    Rather refreshing from all the 'Lance Bashing' that has been going on.

    Okay- it looked a lot better on the show than it did in the picture, I gotta say.
    But- when Lance got on it- it looked like the bike swallowed him up- he's not big and bulky like Paul Sr, Paulie and Mikey.

    I dunno if they made it for him gratis, I believe that he had significant input though- but I think that OCC bikes- not specific "theme" bikes like the Fire bike and the POW bike say...which appear to remain OCC property- are made for the customer...ie: Leno , Nascar, NY Jets, Snap On Tools.

    and
    there doesn't appear to be anything on the back for Sheryl to sit upon...just the fender.

    Bikes
    Horses
