LOOKS SMOKIN HOT

The postman hook you up today Nick?

no

Its alright tho. Still need my forks and bars before I can assemble. And I have to get a new crank set. Its now a must.. Ill keep my RL's for the bike im going to build the wife!!!

I could picture that same exact sticker kit on a Anti-Freeze Green Standard. Called dibs on the idea! Nobody bite it! LOL

After seeing that chrome 125R I think I am going to do that. Or black f/f and and bright purple decals with purple pedals, grips, hubs. And a white seat.

Just wanted to share my first tattoo with my Standard brothers.

2 hours in, 3 or 4 more to go for shading.

Discuss!





Sorry for the thread jack. Maybe a Standard tat is in order?

I have some Shimano SLX cranks in 175 that will be freed up soon. Saints are going on bro's bike, DXR on mine.

Finished re-tagging the forks.... added the brake cable straps...

That is a nice looking cruiser....

I agree with Rob - NICE!

Sold another 10 tickets, going slow but people are coming around.

Since friends and family are buying what i am going to do is take pictures. I am going to pick a randon person I do not know and have them shake the box and draw. I will have my wife take pictures and even when they unfold the name. This way it seems fair, and people see its not rigged! Even tho i only sold a few to a family member if he does win i dont want it too seem rigged..

Sound fair?

Havent been around much. Wife is in the hospital with heart problems at 26 yrs old. She has been there all weekend and has surgery monday. So I will be bouncing on and off here checking to see what cool new stuff you post and so on...

You guys take care, and post up pictures and builds. I know all of you are out there working on something....

Nick

what ever you feel is right Nick. I think we are all adults here and understand that this is a drawing. I know that you got to do what you feel is right so its cool with me on however you want to do the drawing. Hope your wife gets better and I'll see you guys at the skatepark

I'm so sorry to hear about your wife's heart troubles Nick. Were they brought on by the baby or from something further back? Either way, tell her we're all thinking of her and hope she gets well soon.

b.

Nick not worried about the drawing (just pick my ticket ). I've been keeping up on the status of your wife thru FB. It stinks to hear about but let her know we are still praying for her (you and the baby also), this isnt just her dealing with this. Stay strong and keep us up on her condition.

this is crazy talk!! is it hereditary or just life choices
26 though, thats not good
all the best and get a very very good doctor

Nick... forget about this BMX nonsense, take care of the important things. Wishing you the best of luck, we`ll hear from you when things are better.


Up the Irons Mates

Checks in the mail! Sent it out on Saturday before 4pm so it should be in your box today or tomorrow.

Hope your wife is doing well. I wish her a speedy recovery and ya'll are in my prayers!

I think all this BMX stuff is whats giving her her issues

Thank you guys for the support. means alot, and shes sees your messages in facebook and loves them. Im off to shower, and back to the hospital!!

Updates soon!!!

Thanks ARMY!

tattoo looks pretty familiar




that's Josh Meyers btw

Haha. I know they are similar. But I had the idea before I even got into BMX and knew who he was. I actually met Josh in Orlando and we chatted about our tattoos.

Nick, fingers crossed for your other half, I hope she is okay.

Lovin' the green 125RC

We built this thing based loosely on "roughly melting" the geometries of an '83 ish CW cruiser with those of our current bike to give Bob Nash something he could be comfortable with. He was a top rider in the old days always in the mix for the win anywhere he raced. It was a fun project that I actually felt personally connected to from Bob and I being from the same era as well as same area!

Thank you Bob!

Rick

Greetings from the hospital.

So today I got to go to SBC for a bit. I saw MR KESSLERS "CHONGO BLONGO" contest bike. It was having cable guides added to it when i was there. Trick Looptail, dropouts rock, New and Old mix.
Going to be 1 unique ride thats for sure with some rocking touches. Speaking of steve, where you been Mr kessler?

Havent even seen UK danny?


Where are you guys?

Hopefully to post some pictures in the next day or 2.



also got some more ticket sales in the mail. Lee I got your ticket money and some others.

Better hurry up.chances are good!!!

ALSO... I got my ATOMLAB pimplite pedals in the mail today "beautiful" I cant wait to get my pimplite cranks Now!

hope your wife is ok Nick. If you want to, you can give up the BMX for a while since your wife and daughter need you more. BMX will be here, and so will your friends. On the same note, BMX is also a good distraction to get away from some of that stuff as well. If you want to talk or whatever, give me call. My phone is pretty much always on.

The wife is home today. 26 yrs old and has to be on heart meds. She had Crazy heart beats, and something wrong with her right ventricle. They say the meds are working ok, so they sent her home tonight and will do more testing in the next few weeks, scary but all is good. she is home with me and baby..

On the side note, here are some new goodies for my 125R. Atomlab cranks and more soon to follow.










THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR SUPPORT. You are all great friends.....

Nick

ON ANOTHER NOTE....

DRAWING FOR CRUSIER IS VALENTINES DAY, IF YOU CAN MAKE SURE YOUR MONEY IS SENT TO ME BUY THEN, I WILL TAKE TICKETS UNTIL THEN AS FOR THEY ARE STILL FOR SALE LOCAL. JUST WANTED A CUT OFF TIME TO MAKE SURE THEY GOT HERE IN TIME,

BUT IF YOU THINK YOU CAN GET IT TO ME, WE STILL NEED TO SELL MORE TICKETS..


THANKS TO YOU, THE PROGRAM IS NOW EVEN, LETS GET THE PROGRAM IN THE POSITIVE FOR NEXT YEAR AS FOR IM READY TO START WHEN I START GETTING FRAMES AND MORE PARTS...



THANK YOU

NICK

Is that freewheel not a work of machinist art?

I can't wait to see the bike all together Nick.


Awesome to hear your wife is home as well.

I am very happy to hear that your wife is back home Nick. I know how great home can feel after a hospital visit.

No joke man. Being home means you can finally get some rest. Nothing like being forced to lay in a bed, given pills to help you sleep, only to be woken up 45 minutes later for vitals or a blood draw.

Now she can rest and recover without those pesky nurses.

Nick, Nice to hear your wife's back home.

Always good to have momma home, sounds like things are looking up.
Ok, now you can get back to this BMX nonsense.


Up the Irons Mates

Thanks guys. Not out of the problems yet, more testing, but she is home with the daughter and I to hear about more BMX crazyness to drive her nuts!!!!

I got to chat with her on Facebook last night for a few....told her to take it easy for awhile and let you pamper her and your little girl for a while....the BMX community can live without you mr. do gooding for a few days... while you both recoupe....... Glad she is home....always seem to heal faster there...

Rob, why don't you design a Standard Byke Nurse Uniform for Nurse Nick?

Talking with me wife, say whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!! LOL




Then id have to shave my legs

His name is "Johnson" after all!!







I figured you'd have done that by now? I mean, shaving your legs makes you more streamlined and fast!!!

I thought you already did that every friday...

It's great news that your Wifey's back home. Now stop stressing her out!!! LOL LOL

Nick, man just go out and buy a pair of scrubs.......... that way it's fair to you and we don't have to think about you shaving your legs...... which I refuse to do.....

You just admitted to thinking about him shaving his legs. Obviously to come up with the scrub solution, you had to think of how horrible the image of Nick shaving his legs would really be. You're a sick man Rob, a sick man.

YOU ARE ALL WACKOS. I NEED TO FIND NEW FRIENDS

Since your wife reads this drama, she can hold you to it when Dr. XXX (me silly) insist that daily extended foot massages will cure just about any ailment. So there you go big boy, start rubbin`



Up the Irons Nicks Honey

We are the coolest people you know. Just admit it now.

Admit it....you'd be lost without us....

MAYBE??????????????

hows the sbc brothers doing,what have i missed.
had a mad time over here decorating yuck,it just had to be done....lol

AND BOBS YOUR UNCLE!

Mr UPS man brought me a nice box loaded with DXR cranks this evening. My SLR camera is also back so I'll snap some pics of the standard army I have brewing in my basement tomorrow. Just installed the DXR's, gonna put the Saints on my brothers bike in a bit.

Well Thanks guys for all the get wells I am better now... and home... going back to work tomorrow.
