No no not at all.... it's just a good way to get our name rolling. I have done advertising, internet marketing, shipping, taking orders, 
driven all over to set up trade shows at venues or drag races and so much more. We have been in business since 1972 :) 40 years of products made in the U.S.A :) Like our facebook page :)

I have gone to your FB page and looked at the photos. Nice work. I am very old school myself, but I still appreciate the talent it takes to build the new stuff. A pretty cool family business....

It spelled Schaefer - the same as my last name   And you're right it, it is some pretty bad tasting beer.  My dad used to keep it around just because of the family name.  I have just about one of everything with the Schaefer Beer logo on it too.  Just can't find any ties that show I'm related to the company!!!

One of my favorite pieces is this actual ad that was running in the New Yorker magazine when I was born - Aug 1958.  Somehow my sister found it for my 50th b-day.

I was thinking full time would be a blast, get paid to surf biker sites all day! Woohoo! But the trade shows could be fun too, I think.

Do you ride your own at all?
