Welcome to Episode 5 of "Grit & Gratitude", brought to you by Whiskey Dicks Moto Co.
In today's episode we sit down with Mike Aldridge, known by most as the owner of Mid City Smashed Burger in Oregon. To us, Mike is one of the most solid human beings we have met. Oh, and he has one badass, award winning Harley Davidson named "Darla The Dyna". This bike, built with Cheeseburger money, was on full display at Born Free 15 this weekend.
Give his man a follow @midcitymike33 on Instagram. We crack open some Bubly sparkling water discuss the PacWest Twin Show, and Born Free 15. More importantly, the gratefulness to a community sharing their time, knowledge, and elbow grease to get Darla on display at BF15.
