Introduction:
Check out my side project: AMERICAN THROTTLE, The Game... the web address is www.americanthrottle.com.
I have been working on this product for the last 5 years and I am very passionate about it. A friend of mine came to me with the idea of a motorcycle trivia game and I got stoked about the idea. The concept evolved into a poker run, gambling drinking game and many times I thought it was going to die over the course of 4 years. It didn't, and last year we finally got a small business loan to produce our product. I designed the logo, all the graphics inside and out, the website, and pretty much anything having to do with the project.
If you go to the website, there is a great "How to Play" video that I put together myself... along with another goofy video that I put together to emulate a bad kung fu movie (overdubbed voices that don't quite match up). There are some other recent videos and spoofs to check out too.
Thanks to all who help out. |

About Me:
I have been into motorcycling since I was nine years old, starting off with dirt bikes. Have been riding street for the past 25 years and when I am not working on commercial or fine art projects, I am usually on my bike riding through or around the mountains of Colorado. I grew up in St. Louis, Missouri but have been living in Colorado since 1995. I love everything about motorcycling.
I was born and live in Colorado, but didn't grow up there. I grew up in St. Louis, Missouri living in the suburbs and going to Parkway Central High School. I went to The University of Kansas (KU - go Jayhawks) for four and a half years, studying Graphic Design and Illustration and receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. After working for around 10 years in St. Louis for various design studios and promotions agencies, I, along with my wife Terri moved to Denver to start a new life. Hired as the Creative Director at a print shop, I worked there for two years and networked the hell out of the area until I finally went freelance in 98 under the name Eagleye Creative (www.eagleyecreative.com). All the time I had been growing up, my family loved to ride motorcycles. I started riding dirt when I was nine, and it continued into street bike riding. I have become one of those "bikers" that I always thought were cool and currently ride an 01 Fat Boy (seen in the pic). A few years back, a friend approached me with the idea of creating a motorcycle board game, and just recently we saw the dream become reality. My friend came up with the idea, we molded it, my father simplified the idea in a brainstorming session, and I designed and illustrated the crap out of it. The name of our company is American Throttle, and the product is American Throttle, The Game (www.americanthrottle.com). It is a poker run trivia board game for motorcycle enthusiasts. At this point in time, I am juggling my freelance creative company along with the motorcycle game company so I am one busy dude. I was born in 63 (which gives you an idea of my age) and am having a great time in my life.
