2012 Donnie Smith Show and Swap Part 1: EFMC Bikes

The Donnie Smith show was held here in St. Paul two weeks ago. It is the biggest "chopper" show in the midwest--"chopper" in quotes to indicate that as is to be expected, many of the bikes are not my style and could not be called choppers. However, there are always a few nice bikes at the show, and more than a few were owned by El Forasteros. The Forasteros have some incredible choppers, and if you are reading this blog chances are you already know that. Tom Fugle's panhead has been seen a million times, but it is a classic:





This clean panhead was owned by EFMC member Sioux City John. A classic chopper in every way:







This tough looking FXR is owned by Pat, a local EFMC member in the twin cities:



Much respect to the EFMC.
