Easy Writer

Thank you to everyone who has been sending me such great pics. I'm sorry that I've pretty much abandoned this site to pursue other projects. Perhaps I need to make this experience a bit more interactive to facilitate interaction between Easy Rider fans. I'll see what I can come up with.

Meanwhile, I found this in a gift store.

I want to thank you for acknowledging both of my mentors for their contribution to the movie Easy Rider. Both Cliff Vaughs & Benny Hardy are true icons of black bikers. We are extremely proud to have two men design (Cliff Vaughs) and build (Cliff Vaughs & Ben Hardy) all of the bikers.

The problem I have is they weren't given the recognition when the movie came out and now the prequel is coming out they are still eliminating the black bikers' contribution to build choppers and the original bikes.
Check out my blog when you get a chance. http://goldie1779.wordpress.com

Those guys deserve tons of credit and yet finding any information on them was nearly impossible.
