The Ultimate Builder rolled into Cleveland, OH and for the 3rd year in a row, snow greeted the custom bike builders as they unloaded their sled into the show.
Cleveland, founded in 1796, is located in northeastern Ohio on the shore of Lake Erie and just 60 miles West of the Pennsylvania border. It’s home to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Ultimate Builder FreeStyle Class
Jesse Bassett at The Gasbox began the custom Indian sled build with an eBay-found 1940 741 Indian frame. A Norton Commando 4-speed transmission was chosen to replace the OEM Indian 3-speed. New engine plates were made and the scout primary was cut in half, offset and mated with a 1920’s Indian outer primary. All aluminum was polished, all steel was nickel plated, and all cast iron was electroless plated. The entire frame and fork were nickel plated then painted Indian red.

You know I don't do this with my own pictures, but since this one isn't mine ... ! ;-D
This is the same exact picture of my husband's that I put on yesterday -- just with a very tight crop this time. I like the details that are more easily discernible in this version.
No need to comment. I'd turn comments off, but I don't know how! LOL!

We just happened to be at the Pilot truck stop in Quartzsite, AZ when this rig pulled in right behind a Vance & Hines truck. That's a lot of sweet motorcycle goodness right there.

Dolly Sfeir, "hi are you like me"
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the annual outdoor Battery Dance Festival went virtual this year, like so many other performances.
So there was no live festival and most of the international dance companies that participated did so via video.
But NYC let the Festival film a handful of the performers live, albeit in the very early morning, as a way to discourage curious onlookers. These are some of the companies that participated; but this necessarily is a very small sampling.

This piece invites one to consider the fusion of architecture and musical performance.
A chimney is turned into a wind instrument, suggesting one could play, or perform it.
The cavity of a functional object (chimney) is considered for it’s sound producing qualities.
In the same way, one could consider, playing or performing a building, by walking through it.
