Download Orange County Choppers: The Tale of the Teutuls AudioBook Free
In the year 2003, Lady Luck reached out to a hard-living, hard-working family in a small town in Orange County, New York. That was when a team from the Discovery Channel began filming the custom chopper shop of Paul "Senior" Teutul, his son Paulie, and the others of these highly dysfunctional, totally genuine crew as they did what they do best: make great custom-crafted bikes from the ground up. Inside a few episodes, the Teutuls were famous: for his or her hilarious head-butting, their outrageous yelling, their amazing designs, and, most of all, for being real every step of the way. With their hit show American Chopper turning into the Discovery Channel's top-rated program, the Teutuls became unlikely national icons.
Now the Teutuls tell their story as it has never been told before. Senior chronicles his harrowing journey from a hell-raising teen to a star-crossed businessman desperately aiming to keep his demons at bay. And Paulie remembers working by his father's side in their ironworks shop-and the bond that developed between them when they first built an EVO-powered custom chopper from scratch.
From youngest son Mikey's entrance in to the shop to all the other members of the extended OCC family, this is a chronicle of Panheads and Softails turned into gleaming works of art, of Old School design versus Paulie's amazing theme bikes that took custom biking by storm-and earned the Teutuls some of the most famous clients on earth.
With over 60 family archive images that capture this true rags-to-riches saga, ORANGE COUNTY CHOPPERS is the raw, honest story of a family group that was created to be wild, the way they came together around a shared passion and skill-and the way they captured the heart of America.
