Customshow Emirates 2017 – The official video

Great to see the official video of the Biker Build Off from Customshow Emirates which is somewhat slicker and more professional looking than our effort! I can’t believe it was only a couple of months ago we were there, it seems like a lifetime already…. Can’t wait for next year! For more video’s check out Customshow Emirates YouTube Channel. #Shows

The CustomBike Championship in Germany is always a great event and this year has turned out to be extra special as Speed Weevil won the prestigious award for Best Engineering YAYY!!. We couldn’t be happier :))) Thanks to the organisers who work so hard to make it the show it is, and to Blue Miller again for making sure we actually had some pics to remember it with! via Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BNpmvAyhrYC/ #Shows #SpeedWeevil

The week that was – a wee taster

A taster of our week at Las Vegas Bikefest, Artistry in Iron 2016. This video was made using a great wee phone app called Quik. You just pick which photo’s you want to use (it makes use of live photo’s on the iphone which is a really useful feature) and it does all the work for you. Now that’s my kind of app! #Shows

Just keep yer muddy feet off my sofa’s…. via Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p

Bike Shed London 2015

Well it was Rocket Bobs first visit to Bike Shed London and we had a blast! The show was held at Tobacco Dock which is an amazing Grade I listed warehouse in London. Had the chance to catch up with some friends but sadly spent a bit too much time in the bar to get any decent pics :$ However there was a couple of cracking pics of Gas’d Rat taken by another visitor to the show… These are our slightly less arty ones! Thanks to Bikeshedmc for putting on such a great event,, look
