FAMOUS PEOPLE
« on: May 18, 2010, 01:17:50 pm »
It's interesting when you talk to people about famous folk theyv'e met. I'll start Sean Connery, Paul Keating (and his wife) Allan Moffat,Peter Schoene. Haven't met Firko yet! Jerry

Well I've met Firko so take that Jerry! ;D and Joel Robert, Greg Hansford, Ivan Mauger, Olle Olsen and probably a few others I can't think of off hand but they're not exactly what I'd call famous outside of the motorcycling fraternity.
