Revatu's boardtracker
I'm in love with this bike and I soon will write a poem, eeehhh arrange a photo-shoot. It's one of the best bikes I've ever seen. Revatu (Rene van Tuil) crafted this bike with his bare hands and he's is a hero! And the bike runs (and sounds!!!!) great! 3th place at the Bigtwin Bikeshow. What sort of engine this is? Try to find out yourself first :-)
Krugger @ Bigtwin Bikeshow
Thanks to the ever friendly and enthousiastic organisation, the Bigtwin Bikeshow 2010 was a stunning event again. There were some killer bikes on the bikeshow, like a Finnish trike'ish creation, the mind-blowing Revatu boardtracker and much more. The dealer expo was great, with nice stalls, from L&L, SPS (with Zero production bikes and the BBO Zero creation!) , Iron Pit and my friends of RNO Cycles. With about 1500 new pics on my computer, the free space of my harddrive is radically increased, so I will not be bored, watching 'Goede Tijden Slechte Tijden' on the telly, the upcoming days :-) I'll show you some more cool bikes soon.
The World Championship winning bike from Krugger was there too. Of course I had to take the opportunity to do something with this and I really wanted to shoot it! The bike, though, could not be put outside the building and had to stay at the stall of krugger's. And it could not be wheeled round to shoot the other side, as it was placed on a lift in the little stall. So, to deal with this, I had to shoot it in two days.
Saturday morning I had just a few minutes to put up my studio-lights at Krugger's stall, before the show opened and all the visitors came in. After the merchandise was removed from the walls, I made some photo's, while it was called through the speakers that the show will be opened in 5 minutes. Hurry hurry!!
Sunday after the show I shot the other side in a time-span of just seconds, while people were removing the bikes and stalls around me.
With some photoshopping, cleaning up the background etc. I come to this studio'ish result. And I'm pretty happy with it!

Cees' Triumph
Because of the poor weather, we did the shoot of this cool Uncle Bunt Triumph chopper in-doors. The futuristic pathway to a parking-garage was a pretty cool decor for this old skool bike, though, with all that dark and grey concrete and the metal bars at the right side. This is the sort of photo-locations I'm looking for, okay?
The bike is build, restored and proudly ridden by Cees van Middendorp.
Did the shots with three flashers: one mainlight through umbrella as fill, a 2th flash as rim on the front wheel and a 3th flasher with blue gells on it for a alien-ish effect. Looking pretty cool!!
Then, after the shots were done, the rain stopped and so we did some action shots too!

Hot Chocolate xs650
Today I went to the friendly Jeroen van Halewijn. He owns this garage-build xs650 hardtail chopper, which he baptized 'Hot Chocolate'. Oh, by the way, the chocolate-colored paint sceme is done by paint artist Royal Jack. Thanks for the nice day Jeroen!

El chupacabra
Damn, I'm nagging on Gozewien's head for ages to finish this bike, so I can shoot it. Well, today was a special day, as I finally got the El Chupacabra in front of my cam! This CB750 is one of the most creative designs I've seen lately and it's build for a total budget of almost nothing. Y'see why this guy has the nickname Mr. Metalshaper, right?!
Bigtwin november 2010
Check out Bigtwin's website for the bike features of next month. A lot of good stuff! Hope to see you all at the Bigtwin bikeshow in November?
Mario's real (!) Exile is featured, which I shot it a few months ago, and a funny photo of Mario and his Pitbull is used for the opening page. He imported the bike (and the dog too) from USA.
And what about Sjoerd's SMX bike? He designed this wonderful creation himself and the guys of SPS turned the ideas into reality.
Ever seen such a cool Buell? Leon build this dragstyle around a Redneck frame. He's building another good looking bike too, a Sportster rat!
And last but not least, the sixties' styled Panhead choppa' proudly build and owned by Gino from Belgium!
