PEGASUS WINGED HORSE BACK PATCH

Pegasus back patch, everyone likes this one. This re-issue of my 1973 design is 10" wide and 8" tall. Scanned from the original 1973 artwork and full embroidered in six colors on black polyfelt. Patch sealer has been applied to the back to stabilize it.   This patch was originally done for a lady biker from North Hollywood named Cindy.   I met this unique lady one Saturday afternoon, when I was broke down on the side of the road.   My bike had freaked out!   It would run perfect for 15 minutes, then shut down like you turned the key off.     You could kick it until you had a stroke......Nothing!   Then a half an hour later, it'd start and run perfect for another 15 minutes, then die again.......   This was about the fifth time around and I was so frustrated, I was thinking of throwing myself under the next bus that came by, when I heard another bike pull up behind me.   I turned to see a very attractive brunette in leather pants ridin' a pan chop.   She shut off the bike, leaned over the drag bars and said "you broke, can I help?"   Being the jerk that I am, I replied " Probably not, unless you can turn your daddy's motorcycle into a pick-up truck".   She grinned. stepped off the bike, walked over and said, "what's it doin'?"   Why not, she couldn't do any worse than me......so I told her.   She turned around, kicked her bike, slapped it in first and said "I'll be back in a couple minutes"   Dumped the clutch and was gone.   A little weird, but that was the kind of day I was having.....   I sat down and lit a smoke.   Thought, well maybe she went to get a truck, no, I don't get that lucky.   About 10 minutes later, here she is again, no truck.....   She reaches in her pocket and pulls out a condenser and says "try this"   Damm, that was it!!!! Turns out Cindy's family owned a gas station there in the valley and she has been spinning wrenches with her dad and two brothers since she was about 6.   Yea, she built her pan all by herself from a basket.   We became friends, she wanted a patch for her jacket "no skulls" so the Pegasus patch is what I came up with, she got the first one and still has it.   Cindy had a bushel basket full of kids, since then, but she still rides....a softail nowadays, out in northern California.
