"Footnote: Reg and I are super excited this year because in May we’re heading to England and the Isle of Man for a motorcycle adventure with 15 of our closest friends. The good folks at TourMaster have lined us up with some nice protective, waterproof motorcycle clothing. Held USA has us fitted us for some excellent new waterproof gloves, Sidi has our feet warm and dry with their Gore-Tex street boots and SHOEI has us stylin’ and well protected in new X-14 helmets. Thank you very much to these fine companies."
Hey, guess it's easy to wear top of the line stuff when someone gives it to you free.
There are some folks in the biz that'll take free stuff all day long and most of it is on very little discernable merit. Hate to say that but it's true a lot of the time.
What I can't believe is how hard the guy is working, and in his 70's. Rides like the wind, too. I don't do his track days any longer but they are very good in many respects.
It was fun watching him blast around Daytona on a BMW. I got this shot of him in 1974 I think, at Daytona infield road course.
