Cycle Source Magazine has named Kevin Baas its Reader’s Man of the Year for 2010. Be sure to congratulate him when you get the chance!

The Kennedy Chopper Class will be holding an open house on June 3, 2011. The purpose of the open house is to show off the projects the students are working on, as well as the projects they have finished. You will also be able to look around the shop and talk to the students that are working on the choppers this year. More details about the open house will be provided as they become available.

In addition to the open house, there will also be a benefit ride for the Kennedy Chopper Class, known as the The Knuckle Shuffle, taking place from June 3 to June 5. The ride will begin from The Ole Piper Inn, located in Lakeville, MN; and from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Both routes will converge in Yuba, Wisconsin for a party, bands, burnouts, and fun. All types of bikes are welcome. For more information and to register, please visit the Knuckle Shuffle website.

A new sponsor was added to the list at the bottom of our website today, the International Master Bike Builders Association (IMBBA). They were kind enough to donate tools and student workbooks to the class. The students will be using the workbooks while building the choppers this year, and they should prove to be a valuable learning tool.

The Kenendy Chopper Class is pleased to welcome its newest sponsor: Flyrite Choppers.

Flyrite Choppers has donated a sportster frame to the class for use on a future bike, and we would like to thank them for the donation. We’ve also added their plaque to the list of sponsors at the bottom of this page.

The 2010 Kennedy Chopper Class Open House is over, but it was a pretty good time for all of those who came. Below are some pictures that I took while I was there, it was tough to get too many good ones while staying out of everyones’ way! Over the next week or so I’ll be collecting as many pieces of information as I can from the Open House for anyone who missed it. So, if you have anything (including pictures), don’t hesitate to send it to me at preston(at)dvorakdesigns.com (replace (at) with @).
