New Prints

I started this weekend a serie of new prints around the World of Burrito Bros. It's a linocut series at 140 g paper by Gerstaecker between A5 and A4 format. I will also try some multi-colored prints and some of them at T-Shirts with Plastisol colors. The first one is the Che motif. Appreciate your comments.

The Edersee Meeting 2011

Last weekend was the annual meeting of the german Bonsaicrew and other friends of the Honda Dax and Monkey. I arrived at Thursday the campground at the Edersee and it was like 3 holidays. Altough the weather changed from day to day and with hailstorm at the first night, it was a great meeting in a wonderful landscape. This year were more Honda CY, CB and XL than ever - and it was an experience to see how these little bikes could run above the hills. It was my 4th time at the Edersee and not my last. So we see us next year in August.

Fashion shooting with Little Bobber

Sounds complex but it is quite easy: Two weeks ago I visited a photo session at my friends of dock66. I had no cam with me but an idea. So I asked Frank Bick to shot this photo of model Birgitt with my CB50 Bobber just at the same shooting when Carsten from Incredible Style leather fashion did his photo job.

Play it loud.

It's 1977 and Ram Jam recorded and published Black Betty, a song by folk-singer Huddie Ledbetter, and landed a million seller. A typical one-hit wonder but with all the qualities of an evergreen.

Birth Control's Gamma Ray. Best german Krautrock!

Alex Harvey The Faith Healer

1974, Album Next. Only listen to the old MOOG!


Have a nice weekend!

Blaxploitation

From Shaft, Foxy Brown to Cleopatra Jones, old low-budget movies became vintage kulture. More than 200 movies from the late 60's to the Mid 70's with black actors are defined as Blaxploitation movies. Often simple plots, but ever great music, stylish clothes and nice cars.

Should I say anything?

The Lonley Riders. That's real Burritos!



Did anybody know who are these great "Lonley Riders"? Awesome.

The Moped strikes back

When I became older (and older and older) my interest at small Mopeds had a second wind. Don't misunderstand me - I like the big ones, the Harleys of course, Guzzis and Triumphs, the old BMWs and japanese Two-Wheels, but a small Moped only driven by an engine with pistons a little bit bigger than an egg-holder... haha! You have only one chance to go forward, polish everything in your motor and increase your engine speed per minutes. 8 or 10Td? Ha! 12Td and more is the answer. So I was very excited to see the custom Honda build by Kiddo Motors from sunny Barcelona. Thanks Sergio for sharing this nice Honda MBX photos.

Custom Honda MBX 74cc by Kiddo

The Honda MBX had a Two-Stroke engine, was build from 1982 to 1990 and was very comfortable at this time. With 12 V, water-cooled, 6 gears and lots of aftermarket parts.

Kiddo Motors is located at Barcelona, Spain, and partner of Zero Engineering and other famous brands. Click here for their website...

So the Moped strikes back! And better than ever. It's cool. Everyone can drive a Moped and if you live in a city, hey, put your bike into the basement. You do not need a garage "expensive like an appartement"!

Be prepare for the 49er :-)
