Default Blind Bike Builder

My hat is off to Wallace Daniel---have you seen the bike he built---find it in the Photo Album...
He did a fine job,, looks like fun and it looks like Victory baby, yeah,, and he's 97% blind...
Hey Wallace, how much did you do//re-do, did you do it all yourself for real..??
Bubba, you got my respect, this is what I'm talkin about...

How does a guy who is basically blind build a bike? Must be a huge challange.

Yep, Wallace Daniel did a great job on the bike. I read a write up in Easyriders years ago, pics of a great Knucklehead chopper built by a guy in a wheelchair. That takes a LOT of heart to put that kind of energy and creativity into something that you will never have the pleasure of riding. GOOD WORK MEN!

Thumbs up Re: Blind Bike Builder

I saw the bike Wallace Daniel built but only after hearing about it on Charlie Brechtel's Radio Show back in September of 2008, I contacted him to see about buying the bike from him, only to find out he used the bike as a way to raise awareness about people that are blind with a company named I.B. West in Pensacola, Florida . He later gave the bike away to a disabled veteran from the Iraq War. Instead I had him build me a bike that was one off, I gave him 12 thousand and this is what he built for me, only later did I sell the bike to move and it brought me 18 thousand in three days time, just by word of mouth from Accurate Engineering in Dothan, Alabama.
