Idle Hands Show: The Kick Off!

The @idlehandsshow has begun! No new submissions will be considered. Everyone that has submitted a bike to the show is invited to be showcased at the Idle Hands Show July 2026 in NH! There will be a main event (A-side) and secondary event (B-side) featuring all completed, running chops! 

Builders- Show us what you got! This competition is about doing it yourself, pushing your capabilities, learning new skills, connecting with like minded people, and general chopper shit. No rules, no popularity contest, just 3 celebrity judges:
