Liberty Vintage Motorcycles

Adam Cramer of Liberty Vintage Motorcycles

Amen, sir.



This excellent short on the wrenching wisdom of Adam Cramer of Liberty Vintage Motorcycles in Philadelphia really speaks to me. I love garage work, building stuff that I can handle. In this digital age where one keystroke can delete the work of your entire career, Cramer reminds us about creating things that are physical.

It's shot and edited by the always inspiring motorcycle enthusiast and cinematographer, Andrew David Watson, editor of Pipeburn. This piece is as much about Adam as is it about Andrew and his eye for simplicity and authenticity. It encapsulates why I enjoy Pipeburn: beautifully realistic shots of old motorcycles, built and maintained in greasy garages, by their salt-of-the-earth creators.
