Defiant

No, not an angry tax protest. Defiant is the name of this motorcycle! Last week, Schenectady hosted an Art Bike Festival, showcasing dozens of beautiful, hand made motorcycles like this one. State Street was closed for several blocks to allow for the crowd and for the motorcycles - there were hundreds of bikes there and what seemed like thousands of people. It was great to see so many people walking around downtown.

The bike builders came from far and wide. This bike was built by North Jersey Customs in New Jersey, but we have a local custom house called Broadway Choppers right here in Schenectady (they brought some bikes too!)
