This bike was built for a friend of ours named Wellsy, that we've know for many, many years.  We graduated high school together and he was CHC's official Mail Man for a few years.  Last year he picked up his first bike and learned to ride.  Over the fall and winter of 2009-2010 he brought it to us to give it the full CHC treatment.  Some of the key features of this build is the use of brass in many areas including the gas tank and fender mounts that were machined, welded and molded by hand.  There is also a ton of engraving that Strit did including the rockers, battery box, points cover and the main piece which is on the primary cover.  The bike gets it's name from a song that was written by the band Sepultura.  It also has meaning since Wellsy is a 3rd generation Mail Man, 3rd generation Soldier in the armed forces and a 2nd generation motorcycle rider.  Because of these things and because he is such a good friend this was a special project for us and it is by far our favorite build to date.  We hope you enjoy the pics and the story behind the bike build as much as we enjoyed building it.  "Roots, Bloody Roots" HORSE FEATURE
