Ron Lechien getting into it.

Once again it proves that you never get it out of your system.
Some just take longer to come back to it than others.
Now someone needs to introduce him to one of his old bikes and his journey will be complete.

Would be awesome if they got him to Farleigh.. hopefully he does some vintage races.
I read where he's lost 30kilo's! he looks in good shape.

I was always a bit of a Lechien fan. Even had Bonehead riding gear and an '88 KX250.  ::)
He was always at his best when he wasn't made to train etc etc so it's no surprise to see him riding so smooth now.  ;D
