Illusion Cycles ASN Charity Event photos

Musician, Bike Builder and Sons of Anarchy actor Rusty Coones put on a charity event with his wife K.O. for the American Soldier Network this weekend. Me and the gang went on down to Orange County to support the cause and donate some used shoes that get sent to other countries to get refurbished and re-distributed to people who need them.

We had a blast, there must have been about 25,000 pairs of shoes donated. There was great barbecue served, they had the NFL games on and more than a few motorcycle clubs were represented.

Rusty had some of his custom bikes on display, including awesome "Sons of Anarchy" and "Sopranos" bikes that people loved. 

Wasn't really sure how to pose for this photo but ...
Custom "Sopranos" bike. 

"Jaws 2 Eddie" came to the event and declared that as soon as he gets some "Fuck You" money, he is going to get a customized "Jaws 2" Motorcycle designed for him with a big shark fin on the back.  Just when you thought it was safe to go back on the highway.

 The Barbecue we had for lunch was fantastic.  Pulled Pork Grilled Cheese, Sliders, Hot Dogs and more.  Plenty of free cupcakes too. Then we washed it all down with some motor oil. (just like John Grizzly in "Over the Top")


After lunch it was time to load up all of the donations.  We had 3 full trailers of shoes that were donated and we had to load them into the warehouse.  We all lined up and started a "hand off" chain and transported about 350 full garbage bags of shoes into the warehouse.  

We had 4 rooms and a warehouse full of bags we loaded.

Looks like "Jaws 2 Eddie" should have wore his high heels.
This was a great time, Rusty and his wife K.O. put on a spectacular event with local bands, military and the community.  We will definitely be at the next one too. 
  We also got booked to do some stand up comedy at his MC's clubhouse soon as well, more news to come when I get the details.
