IF THIS ORDER IS NOT OUR ABSOLUTE FAVORITE,
it has to be our most unusual!
-Golden Eagle |

1st contact:
Order was received, written on a cut-out
section of brown paper bag with shipping
instructions. Examination of the envelope
reveled, only, that it was from T.A. in Yuba
City, CA. We thought, "this has to be
a Special Person, to give a gift as special
as the Eagle", our curiosity was piqued.
Was this a gift from a father to his son,
son to father or brother to brother, maybe
Uncle to nephew? Our only clue, it was from
a man - no woman would use paper bag as stationary. |

Eventually we learned, T. was Tom, sending
a birthday gift to celebrate his younger
brother's 16th birthday. By the time Tom
arrived in N.Y., Matt had installed the Golden
Eagle on his bike and had, happily, been
flying around the neighborhood for days.
Turned out Matt had TOO much fun, Mom had
to tell him this was one wild animal he couldn't
keep - she feared for his safety. "Sorry,
Matt, we are trying to find a smaller engine
for our lighter weight and younger flyers."
The Good News is,
Tom took the Eagle
back
home with him, to
the hills of CA,
where
he enjoys riding
it to his favorite
fishing
holes.

We received this
photo of Tom and
his bike
- outfitted with
TWO fishing poles
and replica
of 1927 Harley seat.
We caution our customers
to be sure their
bike is comfortable,
this
looks like a GOOD
seat for riding those
rough
trails in the hills.
For some reason,
I don't
think Tom is disappointed
with the outcome.
(We look forward
to getting some photos
of
those fish, wouldn't
expect him to give
away
location of those
favored fishing holes!) |

TO: GOLDEN EAGLE BIKE ENGINES
You know, ever since I could remember I wanted
to run like a CHEETAH. That Golden Eagle
flys. Its a super stealthly bike. I use no
effort and the bike just tears up those paths.
I focus only on my pure enjoyment. It takes
me like a dependable horse just about anywhere
in a click of time. Time itself seems to
stop - I can't fully explain it. The splendid
Earth with its people just floats right by.
Everyones' reaction to it is special. Most
are amazed or just plain happy to see it.
It spreads pure joy. It radiates Love in
all directions. I finally got one right --
it is awesome to run like a CHEETAH!
When I realized what this engine could do
I pushed it to the max and it answered back
with "come on give me some more!"
The bike loves to be moving. It doesn't like
to sit around waiting for me. It needs to
go. My favorite moves are shifting body weight,
darting, and full speed arcing turns. I love
launching my entire body around the turns
going faster and faster. I had been planning
my own bike engine designs for years. I'll
tell ya I threw them out as soon as I got
back from the first ride on that Golden Eagle
Super Bike! This is truely the answer to
a dream a boy had over 25 years ago - to
run like a CHEETAH!!
Now I'm designing 3 new bikes around the
Golden Eagle engine configuration. I'm going
to build a chopper style bike laid back for
the street, a trail/beach comfort cruiser
for my wife, and an all out off road jumping
bike for pure dirt and aerial manuvers.
I hate phones so let me tell you straight
- THANK YOU!
TOM A.
