More to riding a bike than going fast my friend,it's called "having fun".

That's all that's ever interested me Lew but as an "interested observer" since 1971, going fast seems to be an obsession with lots of people :D ;D

early days at Ravenswood saw lots of euro owners pushing the bulty's ossas and monty's back to the pits with some drama or other as more and more silver and yellow bikes kept going round and round.

on the other hand you could see the Flood Bultaco's take it up to the new Japanese bikes for quite some time as the team knew how to sort the bikes. (Till the Bulty factory issues claimed their development process and they fell behind). Same as the Burrowes enduro team which had great success with the Ossa 6 days. But steadily the demand for clean, easy starting and low maintenance bikes saw the japanese pull away in sales and then development.

Beside all this have you picked a color for that piece of artwork you ride?? I like the orange and white. ;)
