Revenge Run III

Set aside an hour and grab some PBRs.....
Revenge Run: The Film from Daniel Thomas on Vimeo.
***This film would be Rated R for language***

Death Science and Malvista Productions Presents the Revenge Run, from start to finish. This run was born from an idea that friends on the East Coast and specifically the Southeast should have a run to call their own. Starting in Rocky Mount, NC and winding through the NC lowlands, the run is the kind of life event most people desire, but few experience.

Crashes, engine mishaps, surprises, shakedown runs, pabst blue ribbon, cookouts, bonfires, island hopping on a motorcycle, roadside fixes, it's all here.

If you've never experienced blazing down a narrow island 90 miles from land, ocean on either side of you and riding in a pack of 100 or so choppers, then I truly feel sorry for you. As far as feelings go, it's a pretty good one.

Friends....brothers...bikers to the end.....

Enjoy.

Daniel

P.S. There are more films planned. If you want to follow my stupid daily thoughts on film making, then follow here: @malvista08

49 Year Ride

49 Year Ride - Generations On The Road - Starring S&J Motorcycles from Clutch Monkey on Vimeo.
This short documentary focuses on the rough and two-wheel-tumble life of local Santa Rosan Steve Leandro and his shop S&J Motorcycles. I was able to uncover some Super 8 footage from 1974 of the 'Run To the Redwoods", which he was a part of, and some 1972 Super 8 footage of the influences in Steve's life to create a film that I believe acknowledges Steve's humble beginings and honors his current impact on future vintage chopper loving generations. Except for the riding shots and old Super 8, this film was shot on the iPhone 4.
