Street Chopper Magazine's Spring Party

notcool · 05-04-2009, 05:23 PM

The new issue of Street Chopper is out now and should be on the stands for about three months. This is the 40th anniversary for the mag and a lot has happened since '69. Jeff Holt is the new editor and is doing his best to get it back on its feet to be the proper chopper mag it should be. It's only out twice this year, but we have shown the higher-ups that the mag is current, relevant, different from the rest, and can make money (their biggest concern). Jeff asked me to help him out on this and I'm proud of what we and the others that pitched in did. I've known John Edwards and Eric Webb for about a decade and was happy to shoot and write both of their features.

And When was the last time you saw one knuckle, three pans, one pan shovel, one gen shovel, one cone shovel, and one sporty on the cover of a mag?

There'll be a release party/show on saturday May 30th in Garden Grove, CA.

Dude, I will for sure buy a couple of copies. I will also be at the release par-tay. I will try and get a certain someone to ride his '68 Sporty and others with sick ass scoots! Sounds like a great issue and kool ass party too.

See you all there.
Looks like the mag is going in a good direction. Choppers that have been chopped and not just bolted together, etc. Hope they can start pumping more than two issues out per year soon.

I picked it up Saturday and this issue is great. I normally don't buy SC, but this one is packed full of great bikes and articles. Definately a great job.

I used to be a subscriber to ST a few years ago but ditched it
when they started churning out crappy pages of 250 tyred sleds.
& the KuryAche'in adds were getting to Me.

I agree! This is the best issue I've seen in a waaaay long time. I usually don't buy it either but this one was a really great issue. Jason, Dean and I were fortunate to work on the illustrated tech article for it. Thanks to Jason for asking me to illustrate him and to Jeff and Ernie from Street Chopper.
