we were talkin bout this yesterday in the dive bar thread (briefly)

it looks like it'll be a good show , some of that footage has been floating around youtube for a year or so.
hopefully discovery doesn't screw the scene up , like it did to choppers...   we'll see

Yeah the next thing you know Carpy and Benjie will have their own show and their prices will go through the roof. I dont think cafe would catch on as much as the chopper scene. Choppers have that bad body thing that some guys need a chopper to fill the void. I do love that in a city of 1/2 million peopleIm the only vintage cafe style bike i have seen.

should be a good show though

at least Benji still talks to the "common folk" unlike some people *cough*CARPY*couch*
What's next?  ...West Coast Cafe?
then they'll start selling cafe stuff in Walmart, Like this awful shirt my mom got me for Christmas.

IC... I don't think I've ever seen a picture of you with a shirt on.   :D  even when you are showing us your new shirt.   ;D
You look pissed, are you sure its not just because you don't wear SHIRTS and you didn't need one for Christmas no matter whats on it?

People in Florida don't wear shirts.  In fact, they just discovered pants a few years ago. ;D ;D

Shoes are considered the zenith of technology...

shoes are for winter time (when it gets 60 degrees out)
otherwise it's flip flops

I posted some cafe racer previews in the dive bar, but I found out it was not for the show on discovery HD.
in fact I still haven't seen any ads for it.

Doesn't matter, cafe racer magazine is pretty crappy. Tons of grammatical, punctual, and spelling errors. Not to mention they talk up old bike barn and advertise for him. Load of crap.

I hope the hipster d-bags stick to Vespas and leave cafe racers alone if this show makes it to Discovery.
I'd hate to have to switch my bike back to stock just because of a lot of bad hipster apples.
