New Orleans cycle design firm, Confederate Motor Co, in exile in Shreveport

JT Nesbitt, motorcycle designer and former Shreveporter, is fifth from the left in this meeting in exile of the New Orleans cycle firm Confederate Motor Co. "The building collapsed," said Dave Hargreaves, "because the people who remodeled the building next to us - skylights, atrium, etc - weakened both structures." The company was located in a historic building at 845 Carondelet St. Matt Chambers (back to camera), Confederate Motorcycles CEO, hosted the meeting at Shreveport's Columbia Cafe.
