Spyke & Mike, Rise of the Phoenix
Check out these pics my BTR friends. From the destruction of the first Fat Bird rises the Phoenix, or more appropriately, the Fat Bird 2. My original ride was a legacy that ended during Leesburg Bikefest 2017. All it took was being parked in the wrong place at the wrong time, and one sport bike to come crashing into it. The blessing in disguise was that no one was hurt during the demise.
Over the course of 10 months and with plenty of blood, sweat, and tears from Mike, a new legacy has been born. It took the help of many strangers, friends, and family to make the Fat Bird 2 a reality. Mike breaks in, “And I just want to thank everyone involved starting with Born To Ride magazine, Ron and Debbie Galletti, Craig the painter, Peppy’s parts, and Brian at Stitch on Time in making this happen for you, Spyke. Let’s hope I can keep my knees in the breeze, your wings in the wind, and its wheels rolling down the road for another 20 plus years and 180,000 miles.” I cackle dad, you built this, you got this!
