There was a mix of fully restored cars, rats and just daily drivers. Not too many bikes, they had to be 1971 and prior to participate in the show. Our bikes aren't that old so we just threw them in the back of the trucks for eye candy. Having said that, some of the bikes that were there were very unique and definitely had some soul.
We brought three of the Doucet and Sons Bare Knuckle Fab bikes and one of them took the trophy for best in show in the bicycle class. This is the one that Haven and the rest of the kids rode around the show.
These guys are doing some very unique things. Machining a lot of parts and just doing some off the wall stuff that comes out cool as hell.
This was probably the most unique and custom bike there. The craftsmanship and time that went into hand making most of these parts definitely showed in the finished product.
Nice Metrics
All the tan on this bike was leather work.
These two didn't even make it out of the trailer because it rained all day, so we snuck a peak and a couple pics.
There weren't too many ladies running around all done up because of the rain but we ran into this beauty peddling some info for a local machine shop. Oh and she happens to be a machinist so needless to say I believe we found a new place to get our machine work done.
She posed in front of Phil and Chris's trucks. I swear there is a truck in this photo somewhere....I still haven't seen it.
We held out through the rain for the Pin-up contest. Stage full of beautiful ladies and that pretty much finished the day on a high note for the Lagniappe Shop. We talked to a bunch of folks, saw some awesome bikes and cars and even managed to drop a few business cards here and there.
