I got hooked on motorbikes because my dad rode them, he had various bikes including a BSA 650 Golden Flash, a Triumph Tiger Cub, and a bunch of other bikes, even a few scooters!

I couldn't wait to get my first bike which happened shortly after my 16th birthday, I bought a rather used 50cc Yamaha FS1E "Fizzer" for 150 quid (a purple one, the Holy Grail of mopeds).
From that point on there was no looking back as I bought/rode/sold various machines including a Yamaha RD 200, RD 400, DT 250 and Honda CB 250, CB 550 & CB 900.

I've always loved the biker/rocker scene. Growing up in England, we'd meet and hang out in rocker friendly pubs, drink beer, eat pie & chips, and listen to rock & roll on the jukebox. Now I live in Hollywood and use the motorbikes/cafe/rocker scene as inspiration to write songs for my band, the Rocking Scoundrels.
