The Playboys @ the Dream Fish Kustom Festival - Allasac France

Last week, i spent 4 days in the mud to see a rock'n roll festival in middle of nowhere : Allasac. Well, If weather is more clement in Montpellier since 2 weeks. The city of Allasac is still in november !!! COLD and RAINY !!!!
I've decided to don't go at the spanish festival in June (Screamin fest)  to meet my BF at Allasac (Allasac is between Paris and Montpellier)

As, i move with 4 other friends in a tiny car i didn't bring enought hot clothes in my tiny lugage bag. Brrrrrrr it was so cold !!!!!

The organizator made a great room for music and record hops. I was very pleased to see "the Playboys" from britain  and my fav french DJ's.
Organisators had particular attentions for everybody and do their best to make a pleasant festival.

I only regret one thing : old skinheads/psychobillies are involved in this kind of event. They  all looked the same : greased hair, cheap overalls, harrington or perfecto jacket, 40/45 years old acting as they were rockabilly with only one song of Burnette in their ipods, they are not fun at all and all arrogants....They had probably forget that rockabilly movement was a teenager thing in the 50's and they are too old for that. They forget also to smile.

British people presents during the festival spent their time to laught at them. What a shame those people are for other international musicals afficionados. Again my country is seen  as a country of dorks and fake rockers :/ really not cool.

Ok it was my little rant about the french assholes, now the pics. Tada :

Look well at this pic, because it will be the last one of this post as an elegant young lady !! ha ha ha !!!
Too cold, too much rain, i bring with me my curling iron, spent long time to curl my hair each day for NOTHING !!!! Each time i quite my motel room it was the Indian Monsoon outside. 

I bop 4 days in the mud !!!

I think it's one of the most rainy place in France.
The amazing "Playboys" my fav european band, during the rehearsal

With my buddy Alain that i didn't see since the Saint Sylvester
It was great to see him again.
With Isa, she rides a sporster too.
We will ride soon together.
Juju who's spinning records
The Starliters from Italia
(you know that i'm a dork who loves western swing :)
We bop during 4 nights like crazy cats.
I had the good suprise to travel with François till Allasac. I love so much this guy. He is so funny. You can never annoying when he is near you. François is so smart and funny. I can't stop laughing to his jokes during all the trip. When i quite Allasac monday, i call my BF from the car, i can't talk as i laught to loud. I supposed to be sad to quite him for 3 weeks till the Rockabilly rave, but i can't stay serious with François  talking jokes on my side in the car. 
I was very surprised to see my old buddy Jean-Claude. I've see my first 50s festivals with him when i was a young chick. so many good rememberance and fun stories to tell. 
Olivier has a little flair of Sean Penn, isn't it ?
Cécile came for the last night. Yupi !!!
Tryin to take a pic of the team was difficult ha ha ha they all turn when i push the button ha ha ha !!
I fail almost all my pics as there is always someone to push me or to put the hand on my camera while i try to shoot pics. Kid jokes was the rule during 4 days.
Now we must wait 21 days till the Rockabilly Rave in England.
I'm so impatient to meet you all again.

It was so good to laught during 4 days !!!

Thank you life to have the best entourage.

Kisses.

Olivia.










Jokes of the day

Well, i still don't know why reporter are attracted by my ugly motorcycle or a Big Mama who stay 10 months the head stucked in the fridge. I 've gain so much weight during this past winter that see my face is a real torture. That's the reason why i don't want to be inside magazines. First, i'm someone humble and i had nothing to prove. Plus, i can't provide my own censure lol. All women are the same, we dislike to see ugly pic in 50 000 copies of a magazine, don't you ?

Well, you will understand what i argue when you will look at the pic below !!!

BTW, I would like to know how motorcycle ladies keep their hair beautifull under an helmet ? Because I try almost everything and it 's always a mess.


 Wild Magazine with Fred from "Marcel and Simone vintage shop"
And Little Pony in the Italian Magazine : Low Ride
Thanks Catherine for the link.

Motorcycle is a real microcosmos. I do nothing terrific. I've got bad taste cause i'm poor. So i must accept doing things by the humble side. Eveything takes time and results never satisfied me... so why people didn't notice it ???? And why my bike are on magazine pics ??? What a mystere to me !!!

Chopper & Co Party - Part 3 seen throught a glass of a pink wine

Here the pics of Catherine and Chris.

Well, i can't remember the name of the restaurant. But when you are beyond the Petroleurs stall you turn on the left, pass behind a little church and then you will see a fontain in middle of a little square. The pink wine is excellent and Pizza are better than italian ones. You should go if you are here next year.

The cool thing with the Chopper and Co Party in Cogolin is that a free entrance event. You can quite for a good restaurant and come back 2 hours after for friends meeting. That's pretty nice to don't be park in middle of disgusting french fries in the same place. I really appreciate the concept of the Chopper & Co.

So, i met Christophe from the notorious blog Denim and More for Mr. C

Chris has start a project with "Le Zouave": "La Société". You should have a look at this post : http://bloggermrbrown.blogspot.fr/2012/04/curiosites-et-nouveautes.html

Chopper & Co party + Cheyenne Run - French Riviera - Part 1

Well, i spent 3 days in a beautifull place : The French Riviera. During the Eurofestival (European HOG festival) there are 2 "off" events in same time : I came for the Cheyenne Run but there is a cool another event, The Chopper and Co Party the saturday

The Cheyenne Run was friday 3th may. So i wake up friday at 4:00 AM to be early at Grimaud and Saint-Tropez for the Girl Run. It was cool to see everybody. But i quite everybody early to found a safe place to sleep.

Friends from the French/Switzerland border was there and i could put my tent next their trucks. Great i could sleep quietly without wake up each 5 minutes to watch if no one try to stole my bike or rape me.

I was very lucky because i hate gathering, too much crowded and noïsy place for me, fake rock'n roll people thinking they living the lifestyle pfeww ha ha ha ha !!!! Oh my God !!!! Dare to support the Humanity in all her defaults !!!!! A challenge i don't want to win. Bye Bye everybody, i must quite ha ha ha !!!!

 Well, i said that i'm lucky because 20 minutes after quite this awfull place i found Catherine, Chris and Pascal, and my glorious little pony was in middle of 2 shovels. We found a place to sleep where we park their vans and my lugages, and then we pursue to found Fred for a drink and eat something. So my little pony was in middle of not only 2 shovels but 3 + one knuck. Ha ha ha it was so nice to ride between the 3 cities of Saint-Tropez - Cogolin and Grimaud by night. with only the sound of the engines in middle of the night. Truly, it's magic for me :)

Saturday, I move to the Chopper and Co Party with Chris and Pascal. Chris let his shovel at the sleeping place and take his knucklehead built by Ness in 1991. Chris made some cool modifications on it : Slim back tire, BMX style handlebars, oh my goodness !!!! I was back him on the road and you could not imagine how the view on his back tire was SEXY !!! Well, the day starts so well, i was on the road between 2 shovels (Bruno & Pascal) and one Knuck. YES !!!!

The street behind the Chopper and Co had a little square with a fontain and restaurants. So it was time to taste the local pink wine. Yum Yum !!!!! So good. Again an awesome time with the guys. I don't know if it's the wine effect but someone tald me that i should came at the "Linkert Attacks party" and that he will borrow me a Panhead !!! I could not go this year and this is a too much beautifull proposition that i can't accept. But the fact to hear that already makes my day :) WOW !!!

During the Chopper and Co Party, i met the guys from the Picodon Run and some Zombies too. Miguel use the MHC (Made in Hell Motorcycles) stall as a drinking table. So we ended the Chopper and Co party with rum, ice and lemon before all move to the restaurant.

After that, we quite Cogolin for Saint-Tropez and a last drink with the guys. Well it was a very good times. I'm so blessed. No major bike troubles, safe trip, awesome rock'n roll people..... Well i'm happy to have take the best of this awfull event that was the Eurofestival.

Friday, early on the morning, alone and against rain.
I again finish on the emergency highway line after few miles. And i finaly found the solution to fix this bloody line that always take off and put my engine on "off". After this last trouble everything was ok during all my trip excepted rain.
