There arnt to many people that come to mind that are really stretching the boundaries (or beating them into shape) of custom bike building in the directions that Shinya Kimura is. Formerly the founder of or Zero and the "Zero Style", Kimura is now back in his own shop, Chabott Engineering and hes continuing to make some of the wildest looking speed machines you'll ever see.

Henrik Hansen has captured Shinya Kimura, his motorcycles, and his way of life beautify in the following video, and i suggest you head to www.chabottengineering.com or find out more (and or drool).

MONDAY 30 AUGUST 2010 // HAPPY MONDAY!!!

THURSDAY 26 AUGUST 2010 // AND THE FINAL SPEAKER IS......

Well WTPC HQ is running at a million miles per hour at the moment. Speed Demons i tells ya! With the next edition of WTQ, The MUSIC EDITION just around the corner, and the tall man getting his ish together for Semi-Perminant Melbourne in a couple of weeks, things are ballistic! and speaking of SP, they have released there final speaker! None other than the west coast wonder, Sylvia Ji!

Hailing from San Fran, and relocating to LA, Sylvia's artworks are, to me, some next level shit. I mean who doesnt love chicks and skulls? Her painted beauties are captivating in the sexuality but also hold a daunting under current that draws you in and holds you close, before breathing a kiss of death your way sending you into a state of ecstasy and lust that removes you from this world and take you to the world of all that is.......

what the fuck am i talking about? Just check her awesome art, and suss her at Semi-Perminant!
