Dime City Cycles Grand Opening Lowside Magazine Cafe Racer TV Discovery Channel

As some of you may know, I’m the Senior Photographer for Lowside Magazine. Lowside is into anything that burns gas and gets your hands greasy building it. We feature mostly two wheels, but some righteous four wheelers make the cut. Lowside has teamed up with Dime City Cycles to produce some Cafe Racers that will be auctioned off for charity. The process will be filmed for Cafe Racer TV. I went to Florida with the crew to document the whole nine yards, and party. Turns out they put me in front of the camera riding and being interviewed. Below are more details.


“What do you get when you combine one part infamous Smoke Out style chopper rally, one part Mods vs. Rockers right from London, and good ol’ fashion sweet-tea sipping Southern Hospitality? The grand opening of Dime City Cycles vintage speed shop in sunny Largo, FL! That’s what!

Presented by Preachers Motorcycle Promotions in partnership with Winters, Yonkers and Brothers Powdercoating- come join the crews from Dime City Cycles and Cafe Racer TV for the best and most unique grand opening celebration the South has seen! Enjoy live music by The Dive Bar Stalkers, get your vote in for the official Miss Dime City USA Pin Up pageant, and enter your awesome garage built and legit vintage speed machine in the ride-in bike show for a shot at $250 and tons of other prizes!

In addition, Dime City will have vendors on-site from the likes of Rusty Knuckles showing off their kick-ass southern clothing label, pinstriping onsite by Liza (aka: Von Dutchs’ Daughter) so bring your stuff, and The Ace Cafe right from London. Yep that’s right folks, the Ace Cafe is coming to Dime City, so all you Rockers better drag those old Norton’s and BSA’s out for some fresh air! And if that isn’t enough for ton chasin’ mayhem havin’ self, the entire crew from the Lowside Syndicate out of Baltimore, MD will be here celebrating their issue #5 release party featuring the CB400F project bike Dime City will be building for season 2 of Cafe Racer on HD Theater.
