You have watched the Pinks TV show on the Speed Channel and you know the gig. Usually 2 hot cars (but now 2 motorcycles), 2 proud owners competing against one another in high stakes drag races. The races are real. Emotions run high. And the loser walks home after giving his drive (ride) to the winner. Wednesday April 2nd at 9 PM EST, 2 motorcycle builders who are my neighbors in West Palm Beach, Florida, Mike Beland from A1 Cycles and Adam Chandler from Chandler Originals, compete in Pinks in a best of seven. On one side, Mike racing on a 114 “ client’s chopper built for a client. On the other lane, Adam with a 140” custom bike built to compete in this TV show. It was shot in Alabama during 2 days of racing (and a little bit of repairs). I got the email results of each pass as they were run, and of course I will no tell you who came back home with no bike. Tomorrow Wednesday at 9 PM EST on Speed Channel, Billy Lane and myself will join them for a good time together watching the show. A very interesting episode of Pinks hosted by Rich Christensen. Check first the Video presentation (wait until the commercial is run). Don’t miss it. It’s a great one.

I don’t get that show. Why do you have a guy flaping his arms to start the race when they are at a drag strip with a proper Christmas tree and timing lights? As a drag race enthusiast I find it quite rediculous.
Pinks on Speed is a great show. Will try to watch. 114″ against 140″???.
The video is cool
Never heard about these 2 shops. I like Pinks. Never saw bike racing in this show. Interesting.
RE:
“…Mike racing on a 114 …”

You guys are on the cutting edge of the next trend.
What a great way to get the custom industry into a fresh new direction.
Seen enough feet-forward hands up in the air stuff.
Lets go for foot pegs back where ya can use em and drag bars….
-nicker-
building a 140 inch turbo feet back low bars hyabusa front end and swing arm…radical hybrid..will post pictures soon
finally… bikes! OK, so let’s get some more guys on there… how about Todd Silicato vs. Roland Sands (racer v.s his GP crew chief, now custom builders)…
add a new show called Pinks: Bikes and fer gawds sake… keep Scott Gillian as far away from this as possbile!
How about those crazy brit cats who race quads… or maybe old iron races… Panheads and Knuckleheads only…. that would be sick-o-rama!
I will be watching tomorrow for sure!
