Orange County Choppers on Kindle


I was watching American Chopper the other day and part of the show featured a interview of Paul Teutul on Imus talking about his new book. I checked and it is available for the Kindle. The book, The Ride of a Lifetime: Doing Business the Orange County Choppers Way, highlights Paul's business sense that led to the amazing transformation of a small business into a household name. Paul Teutul, Sr. is the founder of Orange County Choppers, one of the world's premier builders of custom motorcycles. He formerly ran a family-owned steel fabrication shop before he began building custom bikes as a hobby, eventually founding Orange County Choppers in 1999. Since 2002, he and his business have been the subject of the hit TLC show American Chopper.

I annually visit near Orange County, NY to see family and it is amazing how well thought of the Teutal family is. Every year I hear stories of how the Teutul family participated in community events and how wonderful they are to their neighbors. On one trip I am pretty sure I saw Paul, Sr. riding past on a chopper.
