About us...

At this stage The Chopper Shed staff consists of myself (Andrew) and a couple of  part time workers...

I am an ex art teacher who was drawn mainly to sculpture and technical drawing.  Bet you never made hot rods and choppers out of clay, fired and then painted them, when you did art... my students did!!!! 

I built my first chopper in 1969 and rode choppers which I built, from then until now (though I was pretty preoccupied with family until more recently).  I currently ride a red 1981 Harley Shovel chopped in the classic seventies style.  As I rarely drive a car, my chopper is pretty well known around Adelaide.  My wife rides on the back... for short or long distances, as long as the weather is not too cold!!!

I was a biker from birth.  I grew up in the sidecar.  My parents rode their bikes to work everyday and on long rides, with or without the sidecar and dad always seemed to have at least 20 bikes in his shed.    In my teens I began building choppers to ride... Saturdays always finding mates around to get bits made, try trick pipes and handlebars etc... One of our sons is preparing to chop a Harley Sportster and the other son rides the CB500 Honda, which I chopped in 1974, although it's been modified quite a bit since then.  Our daughter rides her metric cruiser to work.

Andrew just back from a 500 mile run... and ready to keep rolling!
