Bruce Rossmeyer - May 28, 1943 ~ July 30, 2009
It is with great sadness that we deliver the news of the owner of the largest Harley Davidson Dealership in the US, has passed away. He will be missed by all and never forgotten. Read more here or here. Bike Week & Biketoberfest will not be the same without him.
Hi! Everything was absolutely awesome! Everyone at the shop was so nice & Pete did such an amazing job! I was having a hard time visualizing the tattoo with all the elements together; so I was absolutely amazed that Pete listened to me be completely indecisive and still managed to draw something so perfect! The final product was better than I could have ever imagined! I love it & I am so happy to finally have the tattoo that I've wanted for so long. I can't wait to come back and get the one on my foot redone! Thank you so much ...
Marcus and Pete the Nail !
