    I love how he coupled his childhood passion into his lifelong career and business structure. These are beautiful works of art! The moped bike was a beauty!

    I wanted to see him riding one of these amazing pieces of art. I'm curious about his commissioned motorcycles as well. Do the bikes he builds for others have the same intensity? Are they all chrome too? This POD leaves you wanting more! Got anymore?

    Great POD, Greenlight for TV.

    I have to admit I'm not into bikes but this pod drew me in instantly and I couldn't help watching it in its entirety. Great work!
    Also those bikes do look amazing; works of art.
