Wonderful story Alice and great background.   As another aside, not nearly so neat as yours but.............

The folks who did the movie had the Teutuls of Orange County Choppers build one of their theme bikes for the movie. OCC in the form of Paul Junior do some very cool themed bikes. I am always amazed at how this kid can translate something into a motorcycle. I think the Eragon bike is extremely good and shows just what I mean. From the dragon scaled and armored fuel tank to the chain mail on the exhaust to the shield doing duty as a rear fender, you get the feel of things thru a damned bike.   See if you agree by clicking here. Go to page 6 and by clicking on the bike you get a slide show.
