Wiring 101



We found some great handlebars for the bike. Now we begin wiring our switches. We are using Arlen Ness radius controls with switch buttons. The wiring is proving to be the biggest challenge. We are learning how to create our own circuits and what all of the various electronic parts do. Wow, this is going to be SWEET!!

Fabrication 101


Our tools may be basic, but the students are fabricating all kinds of parts for the chopper. Boy, that math teacher would be impressed with all of the calculations and measurements that went into making this handlebar clamp. (Hmmm, maybe fractions are not that bad after all.)

Christmas Parade 2008


Here is our float for the VERY cold Christmas parade. Thank you to the Bailey's for all of their help. It was great to see the reaction to the bikes that the kids built.
