AmericanPrideAndPassion.com Jerome and his hand made, tricked out Harley-Davidson, sporting that unmistakable Captain America theme. He is truly a one man parade wherever he goes, extolling the virtue of character, integrity and honesty. Accompanying Jerome is my neighbors kid, little seven year old Matthew, also displaying his own version of super powers with a tricked out bicycle filled with multiple horns on the handle bars and playing cards attached to the spokes. Matthew's super powers reside in his ability to "see in 3-D" wherever he goes. This young child represents the wana-be super hero in all of us I think.

Story

What you are looking at is pretty much a regular guy with a gigantic passion. Wherever, Jerome and his bike go it’s a huge draw and very popular, all the while extolling the virtues of the Captain America character: patriotism, honor, truth and the American way. This is not just a photo of Jerome and his wonderful bike; it is a photo of the making of the photo we are viewing. Almost like we are watching somebody as they tell the story. The small child included on the far left of the frame represents the innocence of our hero, and the desire in us all, I believe. Not everybody can muster the strength of character and resolve to actually build and ride such a “bold statement” and mean it! Our “junior hero” has a handle bar full of lights, bells and horns, in addition to playing cards attached to his front forks with clothes pins in order to create the kid version of rumbling as you ride. The addition of a towel around his neck as a cape and paper 3-D glasses were a nice touch I thought. His super powers reside in the ability to see “three dimensionally” where ever he goes.
