The daily GK grind.

Did you know we have a BLOG?

If you want to follow the daily minutiae of my life… what I’m thinking, looking at, building, reading, saying to the wife, throwing at the dog, taking to the dump, hanging on the wall, shooting for the mag, retrieving from my son’s mouth, and buying on eBay, then you need to bookmark this!

GK blog

Issue 12… and t-shirts! You lucky people..

Issue 12 is here, and riding right alongside it is a whole posse of GK tees, with a design to suit every badass on a sickle.

John Edwards graces the new issue’s cover, with his re-styled Pan, and the story of why he made the changes and where he picked up his impeccable influences. There’s also Nate’s ‘Ice Queen’ FL, another standout chopper from the past year, as well as two of the nicest Triumph choppers we’ve seen in a while, one from the States (Andrew Lindloff), one from Oz (Bart Verducci).

What else? An E-type-Jag-powered trad dragster (yes, really), a profile of ace lensman Josh Kurpius; a look round Benny’s Boneshaker Choppers; a talk to Rowan Manners who was chopping back in the 70s when I was still watching Dr Who; Hajime’s ultra-cool FL from Tokyo; a shovel and an ironhead owned and built by two friends from South Wales…. and first coverage of the great Born-Free show, with photos by the equally great Scott Pommier.

Check it all out on the ‘BUY’ pages.
