About Me

Known to Some - as Bret, Bretster, or Freckledredd in the BIR. And round these parts as "That’s the Rocker who rode in on that sickass Triumph!" I'm a proud member of the Brit Iron Rebels Worldwide RC #84 . If you bleed British Iron, check us out (click on the Banner to the right). British Iron = Wrenchin, Ridin',and Collectin'! I dig Hot Rods, Classics, Billy Tunes, and Tattoos too... Grown up around this cool shit my whole life...I guess its my turn! Its in the BLOOOOOOOOD! Joined the US Navy in right outta high school in '88. Studied Nutrition and Fine Arts til I was honorably discharged in '91. Dropped out for a job promotion and never went back. From that point I was a personal trainer at a local gym in Lexington, KY. Had a freak opportunity to see some modeling agents at a scouting show in Cincinnati 1995 and got picked up by three of'em. Sold the house, left my girlfriend, and moved to The Big Apple. Modeled and waited tables to survive for a couple years and then decided the modeling wasn't for me. During that time I continued to study fitness and became certified. Ended up managing a restaurant in Manhattan during the day and trained my clients in their homes early or late. Met my wife while I livin in NYC too. Some time later I stopped training clients, and took a 10 month hiatus from the restaurant biz and helped plan our weddin' and honeymoon. Through the last few years I've learned me how ta work on 2 wheelaz also. Vintage Triumphs '63'-'70 650cc to be specific. Currently I wrench, trade, and build'em as a hobby w/ dreams of workin my way into roddin' too!
My 1964 Triumph Bobber 650cc Bonneville, 11:1, 6" over, 4.25F/5.00R

US Navy Vet - I'm 6th generation US Military Vet and 4th generation US Navy. I was stationed Naval Air Station Miramar, San Diego, CA most of my duty. Questioning the authorities, it’s understandable. Hell, I do it every chance I get! But, if you've got a problem with Supporting Our Troops, you now have a problem with me. REMEMBER...You're FREE because of Us!
Animal Rights - I love animals more than humans. Since they can't speak or defend themselves...I'll do it for them. If you feel like I do about animals, get involved! We all can make a HUGE DIFFERENCE in animal’s lives! Please click on the banner below to find out how to help! Racial/Social Ignorance or Hate - I have no time, tolerance, or patience for this bullshit! If you qualify in any of these categories, do us both a favor...crawl your sorry ignorant ass back under the rock where you been livin! HEY SHITHEAD...YOU'RE THE PROBLEM!
