Two Tribes Celebration

Two Tribes Celebration

What's not to like about surfboards, motorcycles, and riding either one of them? Well...nothing. These two diverse cultures actually have more in common than it might seem. Each of these activities shape the passions, lifestyles, and worldviews of the people who participate in them. There's something about riding waves and bikes causes them to become an obsession to those who participate, and that can't be ignored.

Our friend Justin Coffey of Peanut Butter Coast, a blog about surfing in the Northwest, wants to bring these two groups together to mix these cultures and celebrate their similarities.

The second annual Two Tribes celebration - a custom motorcycle and classic surfboard show will take place next Friday, July 19th at the Piranha Shop in Seattle. They'll have an eclectic mix of boards and bikes, as well as beer and screen-printed posters for sale (the proceeds of which will go to Warm Current).
