RIP

Gary passed away on the day I got married, almost at the same time I was getting married.

He was a good man with a hell of a lot of stories. He loved motorcycles and cars.

His first ride on a bike consisted of buying a 250 BSA and riding to Vegas right away.

Thats old school balls.

He will be missed by all that had the fortune of knowing the man....

Canadian export, california influence...

You need parts, free shipping for the month of February, providing you live in N. America.
Visit Rogue and get your parts. Shit thats cheaper than the source. Throw 'em your bones...

This shit was crazy....

Finally got a new camera, these were on the old memory card and am still mind fucked at how epic and sad this place was....The pictures don't even do the scale of the place justice.....

days gone by....

A little known fact.....

Sometimes the tattoo world is much like the skateboarding or motorcycle world. Full of braggerts, douchebags, and jealous shit talkers. And every now and then you run across someone whose work will speak for itself.
Jesse Wark at Blackwater Tattoo is just that kind of guy. One of the cities best kept tattoo secrets. His shop is tucked away at the end of the city almost. It's not a clothing gallery, it's not a trendy over decorated eyesore of a shop, its just a straight up simple tattoo shop where he pumps out good solid work day after day.

Go see him, you'll be glad you did. Plus no bitching about being on a waiting list, it'll give you time to save your pennies up.

A guy named Scotty

There is alot one can say about someone that they have known for most of their life. I can tell you any number of things about Scotty, but the best thing I can say about the guy is that I'm always happy when I do see him. We grew up in the same area skateboarding, and looked out for each other when we had too.

Scotty does a whole lot and a whole little depending on how you want to take his explanation of his life. One thing is for sure tho. The man is far from boring. He's a good writer, has done a lot for canadian skateboarding, and his musings are always entertaining.

So check out his latest endeavours over at KINGSHIT. Its a solid Magazine, and a good website. Shit they have Dave Carnie. Nuff said.

Or read his thoughts here

Point is. Scotty is a great dude. Buy him a beer, he may give a mag if he has one, at the very least he'll most likely have a great story to tell you....

look back and laugh
