In the early days of the sport 'track prep' was not a priority and was in most cases non existent. Many of the real early tracks were built by taking a chainsaw in the woods and cutting out a track then racing the natural terrain, yeah stumps and all. As the sport became more popular things like...

Does one of these guys look real familiar ?

Love it ! Got a bad weakness for drum brakes and air cooling. Really like the gear that was worn in the 70's to the 80's also.

I'd like to point out that the photos I am posting I did not take, they are photos of program covers and some photos from inside the programs from past races that I attended. I will also be showing some magazines that I kept from a very extension collection I had and some images from inside of...

Man, you guys sound like a bunch of old men. Where do you expect these little din do nuffin spoiled diaper rats to practice for their future Bikelife career ?

For now Harley is safe because they have a good dealer network and returning customers even though their product line is getting very stale. Indian on the other hand has not established a solid customer base yet and their product seems too much like Harley's. IMHO Indian will go the way of...

There was another MX track which only ran a few times deep in the 'Heart of Hell'.... Cloverleaf Speedway in beautiful Cleveland Ohio. Track surface was terrible, had cider blocks sticking up out of it but it was a place to race. The track was out behind the stock car track next to Mt...

Chester Lake, around the corner from Smith Road.

Heard a councilman on the radio saying these criminal clowns want to be know as 'performers'. Whats next, "I din do nuffin, I was just working on my tan"

Dumb question....anybody know where the race results are posted ? Rough Scramble

The bikes, the people, the weather all a 10 ! AMA-Mid-Ohio a big FAT ZERO ! For all the money that event generates they couldn't have one portacan or garbage can in the camping area south of the swap meet which was full of campers all weekend long. The few facilities that were about a 1/4 mile...

Should of had Al Chuppa in my original post. Couple more stand outs were Ross Williams and Harold Robinson.
