The custom military-themed Dirico bike built exclusively for the Ultimate Sacrifice Appreciation (aka U.S.A.) took 1st place in the Production Class at the 7th Annual Metzeler Bike Contest at Sturgis where more than 40 builders entered their unique bikes of art.

Additionally, the complete line of Dirico bikes were on full display as was Steven Tyler when he dropped-in for a peek and jacked-the-crowd-up as he gave away free passes to the Aerosmith concert for that evening of Wednesday, August 4. So the contest goers won as did Dirico.
