As I wondered aimlessly down the Ocean City Boardwalk I began to feel lost. I was blinded by the flash of thousands of blinking lights and deafened by the distorted sound of stereos turned up past the point of recognition. Though I was at a motorcycle event and even being on my Twin Cam Softail instead of my rigid Sporty I was feeling this was not my crowd. Suddenly through the sea of Street Glides shines a beacon, a safe harbor if you will. Anchored in this harbor are a couple of true pirate ships, or in this case a couple of hot rod Sportsters and a chopped Shovel.

The name of this harbor? Dimensions, and the crew there are some great people, true C h o p p e r Jockeys and all around good guys. The crew I met at Dimensions that day consisted of Dan Troiano , shop owner, Evan Griffiths with his 1981 FXE, Ryan Arnold on a 2001 hard tailed Sportster, Jeff Brown riding a 1974 Ironhead, and Gunner Hughes on a 1990 Café XL. These guys ride together, work on each other’s bikes, and work the shop together. Real friends with real values.

Now through all of this you’ve probably been asking one question. What the hell is Dimensions? Dimensions is a Piercing shop that also sells some cool clothing and custom skateboards and parts. While their piercing is top notch, their clothes super cool, and their boards amazing, it’s the feeling you get when you walk into the shop that makes it. Take my experience for example; some jackass from West Virginia with a camera. These guys basically turned the shop over to me along with sharing some of the best donuts I’ve ever had. I’d once again like to thank all the guys at Dimensions. After I found this place I spent more time there than any other place on the boardwalk. If you’re ever in Ocean City and need some likeminded people as yourself make your way to the beginning of the boardwalk and find Dimensions. Walk in, say hi, and check the place out. You’ll be glad you did.
