After years of looking at photos of classic-style choppers, Steven Lee “Slim” George decided to put together one of his own. The goal was a traditional style chop with some newer tech for added reliability. Killer chop builds tend to start with finding a suitable frame. Steven had heard rumors of a vintage piece that might be available and scored a “Jimmy Allen Special” custom-built classic.

New ChopCult Feature
The What We Ride features focus on our contributors and the motorcycles they choose to kick their leg over. We’re fortunate to work with Alec Ozawa, and he has become a vital part of the ChopCult team. Alex is a Chicago-based custom motorcycle enthusiast who enjoys photography as one of his artistic outlets. Having no mechanical background, his can do attitude helped him to build this 1998 Harley XL1200C, 95th Anniversary Custom chopper he calls Porosity Princess. Enjoy!

What's Happening Hot Stuff?
Hello, it has been awhile since I have posted, and I hope all is well with you. Our lives are going at full steam as Born-Free is heading our way. Duane is an invited builder once again and has set the bar with the latest CB750. There's been a lot of late nights over the past six months and a few setbacks. D has handled every challenge with ease and has managed to stay focused. I, on the other hand, am a ball of nerves. I hope the mailman brings him an early birthday gift tomorrow ( his birthday is on Wednesday) and delivers the engine parts so D can move forward. Be sure to give my bff a follow on Instagram to watch his bike come together.

ChopCult.com continues to grow which I'm forever grateful. Grateful that you enjoy which we feature on the website and social media, and thankful to those who continue to use Chopcult.com to sell their wares and use the forums daily.

Take a moment to check out some of the features showcased on ChopCult.com. and we'll see you at Born-Free!
Talk soon.

What's happening hot stuff
This is a test, this is only a test........... I know I have been absent here as of late, for which I apologize. I'm surprised, also thrilled to see that I still daily visitors. For this, I thank you for being loyal and interested in my life ( as boring as i may be at times). My main reason for my absence here is that I'm extremely busy keeping ChopCult moving forward, helping Duane when I can, and am securing sponsors for the David Mann Chopper Fest. I'm currently so busy pimping everyone else out, I'm honestly too tired to take care of D's and my social media. But no more excuses, it might not be a daily post but I will guarantee a few a week.
I recently went home to New Hampshire for my parent's 50th Anniversary, yes I really typed 50. I had a great time!!! While I was there, I had a conversation with my brother Manny or Manuel, if he was in trouble. I remember hearing Manuel a lot as a child. :-) Manny is very intelligent, business smart, and well educated. He didn't really have to study and would bring home A's constantly. I, on the other hand, would study all night and fail miserably every time. Manny has grown into an awesome man, who has a beautiful family. He doesn't have a Facebook, Instagram or Twitter account. He doesn't want it and prefers spending his time with his family and/ or chasing a little ball around 18 holes. Manny told me something last week I will never forget. He said," Lisa, I love going to your blog. I love your photos and your writing." That my friends was like getting a A+. Everything I "do" today is self taught through trial and error. Not bad for a girl that was told at a young age not to dream big, I should lower my expectations. Oh if she could see me now hahaha. I might not be rich and famous but I'm succeeding gracefully!
Being the Editor-in-chief of ChopCult has been one of the hardest but best job to date. It's defiantly kept me on my toes and every social media outlet is growing. I'm a number junkie, and the numbers look AWESOME. Even site memberships are up, boom!
I have many duties this position one being attaining content for the site. I'm also responsible for the layout, a process I actually love doing now. It wasn't my favorite part of the job in the beginning but now everything falls into place now. Here's my latest feature on the site: Inside Voodoo Vintage.
Another duty is securing advertisers for the site, and this is how came to meet David Roy. He's the owner and operator of Voodoo Vintage. We hit it off right away, even before I secured Voodoo Vintage for advertising.
"Ever meet a person and immediately know they'll be in your life forever? That was my experience when I met David Roy from Voodoo Vintage". ..........READ MORE

Need some press?
Looking for shops and bikes to shoot in the So-Cal area for ChopCult features and print.
If you were an invited builder for Born- Free 5, I would love to feature your bike on ChopCult. I understand if I need to wait for print to publish your bike, that's only fair. But don't forget ChopCult as we shed the light on you last year. It would be awesome to show the members and readers how your bike turned out!
If you're interested, please contact me

The Horse Magazine
I am thrilled to see Paul's bike receive the cover for the next issue. Like most small business owners, Paul is known to pull many 18-20 hour days. He takes pride in his work and it shows through his bikes and products. It's been a pleasure working with the Spitfire Motorcycle brand and I can't wait to see what he unveils for 2013.
This issue also contains my very first feature for the magazine.
I chose to go with our friend's bike. Renato has been a huge help with Duane's builds and he can create anything out of nothing. He built this bike from the ground up, fabricating 85% of it himself.
Be sure to grab a copy at your favorite coffee house or sign up for a sub here.
Big thanks to Hammer and Englishman for giving me a chance, Duane for penning the feature and Renato for being a great friend!
