I can’t believe how much weight I’ve gained since I got married. It seems that my body just gave up on trying to burn fat and let it store water like a camel. I really hate it – not because I’m vain, but because I don’t feel healthy.

Any chopper enthusiast knows there’s a lot of bashin’ and crashin’ going on at Orange County Choppers (OCC), the country’s best-known custom bike builder, spotlighted on the series ‘American Chopper‘ on Discovery Channel Real Time.

It’s not that I’m a  biker chick (although in some ways I wish I were) but I have been really addicted [...]
