    last week a older custom biker builder was taken in a car wreck , JJ morreles was 75 & still going strong working on all kinds of motorcycles , He did however slow a bit after his oldest son Joe was killed in a robbering about 5-6 years ago Joe also worked in the custom shop many years ago JJ started a toy run to the shriner 's Hospital for the Kids & it grew so large that Galveston would shut down part of the streets for bikers only so all the kids could come out & see all the Bikes & meet all the good riders who came to see them
