| Mike started ridin' at the tender age of 13 on a mini bike he bought with his paper route money. He's never owned a brand-new bike, and his finished customs have all been built from wrecked bikes and parts. Mike Roach affectionately known as Toad is known far and wide for his customized bikes. He is an icon in this part of the world - Mike is what you would call a true builder, and when people buy a bike from a true builder, they're not buying a motorcycle-they're buying a work of art. Mike has created a century of motorbikes and many loyal fans. I would say Mikes goal was to create an emotional reaction in the viewer. And man, did he get some reactions over the years. Check out some of these bikes.. Mike is HUGE in the Biker world.. Mike's team brought Toad'al bike to Daytona and to Laconia for Bike Week where it went over big time. Toad'al Package won first place (Judge's Choice) at the Easy Rider Boardwalk show, took first runner up at the Rats Hole Essen show and second place at the Nempco show in Laconia. With 30 years of experience building hand crafted custom bikes. this is one builder you will want to honour and celebrate a lifetime of commitment to the motorcycle community. |
148-inches of rompin, stompin,
Harley-Davidson
-"Double or Nuthin" was inspired from
a bike created by
a guy named "Coyote". Coyote's red,
dual-engined
monster was rough but received
maximum attention from
all onlookers. Mike was obsessed - he
had to build one
of these one-of-a-kind-ain't-enough
motorcycles. With
help from some very special friends,
his obsession
became a reality.
