    Bikes and Beards, I’m glad you and Matt got together on this project. He reminds me of his Dad in so many ways it’s unbelievable. Both of them are as honest as the day is long, both of them genuine and genuinely good people to anyone they meet. Somehow they both seem like they’ve never met a strange, up at the old shop here in Southern Illinois Dale always gave folks a fair shake and would go out of his way to help you out if he saw that you were in a bind. Spent quite a few afternoons looking for oddball parts or just original parts that weren’t reproduced yet by quality companies.
    Their shop crew and sales department were phenomenal as well. Glad to see the Maggie Valley location worked out so well for the Walkslers. Matt is definitely keeping history relatable with his channel. It’s good to see that you guys caught on to the historical importance of some of these old bikes for your channel as well as your business. I understand that you must make a profit to stay above water but every once in a while getting neck deep in a project like this might broaden your understanding of where a lot of our hobby began. Sometimes the old bikes even as simple as they seem compared to the technology we’re used to will make us bang our heads against the wall to troubleshoot. The stroker shovelhead im working on now has been creating more grey hair in just the last week but they all do eventually. Anyway, hold your heads a little higher moving forward, you and your team have really accomplished something to be proud of to preserve another piece of history and to help educate your subscribers as well as just bringing us along for the ride. 👍

    I’m a Canadian and back in the day I was I’m Maggie Valley visiting a friend, that friend introduced me to Dale.
    As a high end builder of homes Dale was interested in my thoughts about his upcoming construction project.
    I actually forget what his plans were but my memory was eclipsed by what was in the building we were walking past to get to the site.
    The Museum!
    Dale gave me his time and boy o boy did he give me his time, hours upon hours.
    My wife went back to the motel and every moment with Dale was an honor, I was riding a Buell at the time and Dale gave me some history lessons, in fact it was a historical overload, as you all know Dale was a legend and for me that long day was etched into my memory for eternity.
    I’m currently sailing around the world and watching this video on the open ocean, Starlink allows me to have internet worldwide.

    I had a 45 trike and rode the solo a little, I bought a solo years ago. That solo was missing on one cylinder, come to find out the rear cylinder had a hole in the piston and it would still run somewhat. That was the most nostalgia I ever felt in my life even with all the Harley I have owned and loved!

    I kind of feel sorry for you, Sean. Because you can't fake it but you'll learn. It takes time and experience. Good luck in the future.
