Here is a mega cool brush with a living legend, rgvmax built a TYGA RGV Lucky Strike replica that was as good as it gets.

 While on the way home from the recent Laguna Seca MotoGP while getting some fuel for the ride home who pulls in beside him?



As you can see Max was somewhat happy

Boy, what are the chances of having Kenny Roberts there as well to sign the Yamaha in the background…  :D

Neat bike though. Any more pics of it Lozza?

Great thread. Thanks for digging it up.

Again not VMX. A few weeks ago I read Gene Krantz's autobiography and I'm in awe of the apollo/man-on-the-moon project. So I found Krantz on Facebook and shot him a mail thanking him and the rest of the (considerable) team for inspiring a young boy. HE replied. Couldn't have been nicer about it.
