The Ultimate Definition of Motorcycling!


XTreme

Recommended Posts

Now to me, This is The Style!

It sums up everything what motorcycling should be about!

A cool guy, a hot bird, and a great bike!

The dude was even cooler in real life than in the movies he starred in, and considering Bullit and The Great Escape that is not easy to do.

Those Triumphs just look so great, the modern ones are a great interpretation of it but somehow most of the things imitating older glories lack something.

Well, he had to compete with some pretty cool guys back in the day, my average uncle Chuck rode indian chiefs, tied airplanes to trees in his back yard to tune them up, and would take all kids for rides in his rat rod with a flathead ford.

 

The 1960's were a cool time to be alive.

 

:wave:

Then followed by a swift Tony Danza!

Although he’s cool, they always look like they’re trying

that’s an old Indian, makes it cool, but he’s trying to look like he doesn’t care, which makes it uncool, or maybe he is really cool bit he’s a victim of the times when we like to criticise

Bon was cool on bikes you know......and he could ride them rather than pose on them like Pitt.

Yes I know he ended up in a coma after riding his GT550 when he was shitfaced......but we've all done it!

I'd like to think I've got two of the three, but I'm sure she's only hanging  around with me until someone cool comes along :classic_laugh:

The ultimate definition of biking is anyone who travels to a rally and camps during winter.

I still have to tick of the Elephant on my bucket list.

I'm not in the last picture, because I am taking it, see how we are struggling for survival in the Arctic circle just outside East Grinstead, the outside toilets froze solid. I think we knocked the bloke on the right over the head and ate him on the last night. This is the only photo I have that lets me know what the registration of my CX500 was.

The 2020 Dragon Rally was something to remember, 85mph winds, torrential rain, tents flying over hedges and then there was the ride back home where my mate's Africa Twin which weighs about 240kg with camping gear got blown clean over by the force of the wind.

Not my video but if you move to 6.00mins onwards you can get some idea what it was like......

That's brutal Bob! If I was still in Britain I wouldn't going anywhere near that shit.

But I've never had any interest in doing Rallies.......it was always Race Meetings for me!
