Mahomet Guardsman's motorcycle to be featured on TLC

While stationed in Iraq, a Mahomet soldier dreamed up a superpatriotic motorcycle – and it'll be on TV tonight.

In fact, Illinois Army National Guard Sgt. 1st Class Richard Crawford's creation will be on two episodes of the "American Chopper" show featuring the Orange County Chopper family, premiering at 8 p.m. on The Learning Channel.
