Hanging out with a badass Vermont biker clan known as the Guild, I am learning a ton about details and the step-by-step approach to restoring vintage motorcycles.
You may be lucky enough to find them the way I did, by accident. They have a clubhouse tucked off the beaten path in a modest steel building shared with the Classic Bike Experience, a motorcycle shop in Essex that sits right alongside a Saab repair shop. The crew tries to get together each Wednesday evening at 6:30 to work on motorcycles and have a few beers. I am always shooting photos and capturing an occasional movie.
