A bit of Nostalgia here >
And I can never resist posting neat pics of Spitfires
=======================================>
So Travis Pastrana pulled off the big jumps at Caesar’s Palace last night , and while some might say - “So what” - the fact that he did it on an Indian flat-track bike with only very limited suspension, is pretty impressive - glad he survived - see video >video
=======================================>
Steve Holcombe (Beta) smoked ‘em again at the weekend - but I don’t like to see what looks like a metal rear license plate - those square edges could slice a leg or arm open in a crash.
========================================>
We all love to see Dads & Mums out riding with their kids - camping out in the woods - nothing could be better. - We did this a very long time ago - my son on a YZ 80 and my daughter on a TY175. - Steve soon had a TY 175 of his own, and improved rapidly, graduating to an IT 175 for Cross Country racing. - Sadly he was blinded in one eye when a rock from another rider’s back wheel hit him - he had pulled his goggles down, after a mud hole. - Helen my daughter, lost interest, in bikes, but was quite a good rider back in the day.
========================================>
Just saw this pic of Shane Sugden flying high on an old CZ400 - with the Calgary skyline in the background. - Neat.
