Greasy Dozen Garage Builder Collective 2015


We are a week away from the selection of the winners. For those of you that may not know what this Greasy Dozen Builder Collective is all about now is your chance to take a look and the best part is there is still time to enter.
The Greasy Dozen Builder Collective is all about getting more folks into “built not bought motorcycle culture”.  Many like-minded companies got behind the idea and the Greasy Dozen Builder Collective was born.
The goal: to inspire armchair Internet lurkers to build a bike and experience the gratification of  “built not bought” themselves. Its all about showing that it doesn’t take $100k in tools and a 5000 square foot shop to build a cool Long Bike, Short Chop or Café Racer.
Many generous sponsors have worked together to offer support with parts, swag and more. In the last few years we have seen a couple dozen unique and well built cycles come to life from tiny garages and small shops all over the country.
The important thing to remember is that this is not a build-off but a group effort to promote BIULT NOT BOUGHT MOTORCYCLE CULTURE! There are 12 winners that will receive prizes and support for their bike build!
