Build motorcycles that will outlive you

Film by Ryan Cox, a Los Angeles-based motorcycle builder, showcases the incredible potential of crafting show bikes in a humble home garage. As an invited builder for this year’s Born Free 15, he is building upon a 1940 UL HD Flathead. Ryan shares the moving story of losing his friend Troy Critchlow, the founder of the annual Death Valley Chopper Run, and how he and his close friends now organize it in Troy’s memory. Ryan’s stoic personality and unmatched work ethic illuminate his profound connection to motorcycle culture, making for an unforgettable episode. I’m grateful to have had this conversation with Ryan, and I appreciate you being here with me. The full length audio of this podcast Spotify: You can find Ryan on IG Music by
