Today Mark catches up with Dunedin motorhead Andy Martin.

He last spoke to Andy in December while hosting RNZ Nights when Andy made the final of the US Biltwell People's Champ - an  international motorcycle-building competition.

It turns out his custom built chopper has beat out the competition - making Andy the first person outside the States to be crowned champion.
