From Ava Lou (who is in the first and last pictures below):

"Just completed a military bike, looks so good. We seldom make those military bikes before, but this year, we made several and later more will be completed."

Also from Ava:

"Last weekend we went to Shanghai, attended a Charity Fair there. All the donation will go to SiChun for the people in the earthquake disaster.

This time the whole China come together. 2008 is an abnormal year for China. Many moving stories from Premier Wen to every normal people. I believe we can overcome any difficulties."

In preparation for shipping, a worker applies a film of protective oil to prevent any corrosion during the transit which could take weeks.
Here we see how a bike is anchored to the floor of the shipping crate. The sides and lid will be built up around it.
Next, the bike is thoroughly wrapped in plastic.
The crates are finished up and prepared for loading.
A crane is used to load the crates on a flatbed truck for delivery to the port... and away they go.

More pictures from Ava. This OHV sports a beautifully executed mural featuring the flags of Norway and PRC. I suspect the owner might be Norwegian.

From Ava Lou:

"Hi! I want to send you a picture of our happy customers who came to our shop last week. I hope we can share this with the others together."
Dale, the middle one in this picture, is from Australia. He came to Luke's shop last Sunday with his friends. This is the first time for them to come though and they have ordered six bikes already. They are very excited about the nice bikes, so Dale decided to get his second Ferrari Red bike from Luke."

A few more SS bikes for your thirsty eyeballs. I've always been partial to sidecars without a spare tire mounted on the trunk—and that's exactly how Luke built bike #3 in the last four pictures. I love it!.
