Another great Poker Run in Gympie!

Why we love what we do!

Quick mid week strap out to Montville, got to love the sunshine coast hinterland!

Laurie doin well at the Ulysees Car and Bike Show in WA and thanks for the Plug Laurie!!

Video Conference with New Management!

Image blurred to protect the identities of people that should be workin.

Dropped in and saw our authorised service centre in Coburg Melbourne. Was great to meet Pedro and the crew at Gasoline Garage. It's really cool to be involved with such a professioal shop like this. They have an awesome workshop and got some cool projects going on. And they make a dam good coffee!!!!

Went down to Adelaide to deliver a nice Bear Bones to a customer and while I was there I got to drop in and see our new authorised service centre, Hyperformance Cycles!

Awesome that Andy and his team at High Performance Cycles is looking after our Big Bears in South Australia, much appreciated! It's cool that we're getting support from such a professional organisation! Thanks again from Wildcard Customs.

It's been difficult organizing rides these last months when the rain just keeps coming, so we get out with a day or two's notice when we get a bit of sun. A few of us went up to Tin Can Bay a couple of weeks back.

Melbourne Motorcycle Expo saw a big crowd over the three days, I think having Sexpo next door at the same time helped a little too, though it made it difficult to keep our crew focused and on the stand!!

Sunshine Butterflies is a support Charity for disabled Children, right through to Adults, and their families. It's a great cause and well worth supporting.

This years ride, like last year attracted a good crowd and it was well organized.

A few of us rode down to Samford for an afternoon of Skirmish! Was a fun way to spend an afternoon, and a few hundred paintballs!

Perfect day for it and it was a good day enjoyed by all that got there.

A wild V8 bike set up for Sand Drags proved popular in the burn out pit. Big Bears got a Best Bike Trophy and Best Paint.

Had a ride up to Harvey Bay. Cam and I caught up with Eric and his Athena Chopper and paid a visit to the Paint Doctor. I'd heard a lot about his work and have seen his work at shows and in mags. Hans is going to do some work for us on our Big Bears, we're looking forward to working with him.

A recent trip to America in late Feb was a good one for a lot of reasons...

A mate from VIC came with me to have a look at the Big Bear Factory, meet the team there and help with the final touches on a bike that Kevin is building for him. We stayed down the mountain for the first couple of days as Kevin was still returning from a dealer party in Texas. We took this time to visit with Seth from Aggressive Designs so Russell could discuss the paint theme with him. Seth tried to sell his customized '69 Camaro while we were there. Good car but getting it registered here would have been a problem.

We headed up the mountain about Tuesday, blew me away the first time, still does this sort of country so close to LA

After Johnno cruised into the shop from up north we headed for the Bruce Highway...nine Big Bears blastn' our way to the Goldy...was a good ride and we managed to beat the rain...

We probably should have started earlier this day cause it got real hot by late in the morning from Caboolture up the Old Bruce Highway.

The PCYC show is just a good old local show, it's a good ride there and home.

The turn out was more than expected and sun was out all day, more of a car show than bike but there was good numbers of bikes entered. Thanks to Mike from Vic for dropping in with his Sled and Jeff for coming over with his Venom, though Jeff never needs an excuse to get out on his bike.

Jamie organised the ride down to Bird's new place HD Bitz in Narangba. Great place to grab some good gear, parts and accessories.

We rode down in the pouring rain and a gail on the second half. Ride home was fine, deserved a bit of luck.

Ricks is always the place to start, not too rushed, breakfast and a catch up, and then off on a ride. We went north and then up through Mapleton and Montville, doesn't matter how many times we use that road it's always a good one, hard to keep your eyes on the road with the views though.

The Kin Kin ride was a good day, we pulled up at ricks and there was another 40 or so bikes there thanks to Rick and Mike Folley's organizing skills.

The Wildcard Customs 'Toogoolawah Road Trip' was a great success, thanks to the great hospitality shown to us from Steve and Andrea from the Toogoolawah Exchange Hotel. Everyone had a great time and partied hard.

Five Big Bear Choppers were invited by Ultimate Choppers to join and display bikes on their stand in on the Goldcoast Bike Week.

We didn't trail them down, we rode them into the event! Chuck from Oz Bike was later telling us at the bar that we got a standing applause from the crowd as they are not used to seeing custom bikes being ridden in. They were then put the bikes on display for the afternoon.

Our first official ride with the Big Bear Choppers took off early on a sunny Sunday with a few guys from Brisbane joining us on V-Rods.

Christmas Deadline, Roadtrip QLD to WA in 1 weekend to make 2 customer's dreams come true...Crazy roadtrip stories. Thats how we do it at Wildcard!

Some of our adventures captured, thanks Brad!

HAPPINESS...you can't buy it.

Part of the family...

On the way back from a delivery to Victoria.

Getting out on a ride with Kevin was a blast for Adam on his trip to Big Bear and S & S last month. They swapped bikes part way so Adam got on the Black/Orange Prototype, that we might see in Australia next year, and Kevin's own wild 124ci Miss B.

Murf's one of if not the top guy from BBC. It's been awesome having him here working with us. Hope to see you back again soon Murf.

Big Bear Lake winter forecast for December 2008.

We received a mention in a newspaper in outback Queensland, Bob 'Chopper' Langley suits our DA!

Our annual Ride 2014 - Cooyar Show!.
The annual Cooyar show ride was on again! Great company & entertainment, and plenty of cold beers!

Awesome Ride out a few weekends ago out to Boreen Point.  Great day, lots of sunshine & plenty of bikes!

Great blast out to Cooyar Pub.
The annual Cooyar show was on to top off our night! Cold beers & a sunny day, what more could you want?

Awesome turn out for the Melbourne show, we had great new bikes to show, thanks to everyone for coming to see us!

After we sent our bikes on a road trip down, we all jumped on a plane and headed to Melbourne, got driven in style to the Show by our driver Alex in his Chrysler 300!  We got to chat to heaps of chopper enthusiasts, who are ready for their custom bike dreams to come true, had a great time with so many bikes to see, we will be back for sure!!

Arriving at the Isa...

Well worth the trip, Karl's a happy man!

A long way home...

Damn...

Rider hazards...

Touch of history...

Touch of geology...

Walkabout Creek Hotel, Crocodile Dundee...and its closed, wtf!

Sheep this far up North? Just gets more and more interesting...

And yep the home of Qantas too!

Rambling pictorial of a lonely road!

We rode down to Rollies for a dealer day! They flew over the guys from a bunch of manufacturers including; Scott from S&S, Grady and Sue from BDL, Ted from Performance Machine and Bert from Baker.

Four of us went for a ride down to see Dave, Hamish and the crew @ Burleigh Bars to measure up a bad ass custom set of bars for Cam's Athena Chopper.

Australia Day 2011, a few of us met at the shop in the morning.

We went for a quick ride up to Eumundi and then across to Kenilworth Pub for a Hot Rod Show. All was good after the rains being with us for so long.

The Moreton Bay Patriots put on a good ride each year and remind us to think of those who have served and those who currently serve.

The ride went to Donnybrook Bowls Club for lunch over to D'aguilar Pub and then back to Redcliffe must have been about 150 bikes. Look forward to next year!

We thought we'd do an overnighter in August and coincide it with the Havey Bay Bike and Hot Rod Show at Fraser Lakes Golf Club.  

Even though we left the shop early we still got up a little late. I get the blame for this most times but can't be "just" me surely??  Eric still managed to get Top Custom trophy, we swear the judge was one of his neighbours!!!

We started the day early and after getting Mo to load up two new bikes to take to the show in his MO Tow Recovery Vehicle, rode down Caboolture way and met up with some Big Bear owners and some Harley riders.

July 4^th, plenty of sunshine and the best American Custom/Production Bikes on the Planet! Yep, top way to spend American Independence Day, not just your average Sunday.  The roads of the Maleny Range, Peachester, Woodford, Mt Mee, The Samford Valley and the classic old D’aguilar and Dayboro Hotels. Just a good day had by all.

Ric's "as we do" first up, was great to have a few Harley's riding, it's not Big Bears only so people are more than welcome to come along. We had a bit of confusion leaving Palmwoods, Cam was at the centre of it, surprise surprise, but we met up again at Caboolture and then met Steve at Kilcoy.

Ric's Diner and Garage in Palmwoods let us put some bikes on display when the Great South East came to film.

Bikes getting ready for their cameo appearance in front of Ric's Diner in Palmwoods. The big 'bikers?' often pull up for a feed, filming day was no exception. Big thanks to Ric for giving us a plug in his spot on the Great South East!

Ride through Mapleton never gets old...

Great weekend should put it on your calendar if you don't go already.

From the start of the day at Rics then the Landsborough for the sign on, onto the Imbul then the Kenilworth and the finish at Eumundi it was just a great day, we all had a ball and not “too” many beers while we’re riding.

A good start to the day at Rics Garage for breakfast. Ric and Lisa have only to add a few finishing touches to their Dina it's looking great. The weather was perfect after a long spell of rain.

From the drive down, view from the room, the set up and three days of crowds all over the bikes to the ride home all went really well.

Plenty of people were blown out by the bikes. They hadn't seen them before but we're just getting them out there.

We all met at Rick's Garage in Palmwoods early Sunday morning for a hearty breakfast and fuel top up then rode down to Caloundra for the start of the run.

The plan was to meet at the Bli Bli Caltex and ride up to the Imbil turn off, meet up with Jamie and crew from Gympie and then to the Imbil Railway Hotel.

We were invited to join the Ulans for the Hinterland Poker Run who are well known for putting on a sensational day, this one was no different.

Two Athena Choppers going down to Mildura. Smoke from the Vic fires in South Western NSW near Hay to floods north of Goondawindi on the way home. While I was having a little sleep from time to time Cam, the ex interstater, kept us traveling with no respect for the law, mind you but he sure makes some miles. Thanks Cam and thanks to Cam's son Mitch who packed us an esky...what a champion!
