Happy Saturday all, A week ago I was sitting in the Media Center At Laguna Seca and wandering the pits scrounging up interviews. As I have said before, I have been going to Grand Prix races at Laguna Seca since the late ’70’s I have hundreds of slides (remember those?) of Kenny Roberts, Eddie Lawson,…
Note to self: learn to speak Italian. Or French, or Spanish, or German. To really enjoy all that goes on in a Media Center at an International Motorcycle Race, knowing another language would be quite handy. Today here at Laguna Seca has started out pretty darn cold and wet but at least no fog to…
Those foreigners, it’s like they have a different word for everything!! (thank you Steve Martin). Here we are covering another race, this time the MotoGP circus is here at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. It’s great to be at another World Event, the media center is alive with more foreign languages than a U.N meeting. Writers,…
…when you’re having fun or… getting older. Hey, I’m not getting older, I tell everyone I’m only 30 years old… with 25 years experience!? The reason I bring this up today is, it’s my daughters 28th birthday. I bought my CB750F about a week after she was born. That bike and I spent over 100,000…
Here we are, camera and voice recorder in hand and just stoked as can be to be at the race. I have been going to big motorcycle races for a long time and you know what..it never gets unexciting. In the stands, in the pits it doesn’t matter..the sights, the sounds, the smells (well,since the…
Well,well…what a weekend!! It’s been four years since the World SuperBike circus has come to the states and I could hardly wait to see it again. The last time we all saw WSBK was at Laguna Seca and it was great so I’ve been missing it. In my opinion it is currently the best of…
Well,as promised in the last post, this one will be all about AMA Racing at Daytona. After some really great racing the weekend before, Moto-ST, CCS and ASRA followed by very exciting vintage racing, AHRMA, the first days of the week…it was amazing to watch and hear some of these really, really old bikes go…
Ok, more about Daytona Bike week…it really was quite an experience. As the week plus worn on, more and more bikes were in town. Like I said before, our hotel was right on Speedway Blvd. this is the main road through / into town and right past the Speedway itself ( hence the name )…
If you have never been to Daytona Bike Week, you need to go. If only once. It’s quite an experience. So how did I end up there this year you ask?? My day job, sales rep for Galfer Performance Brakes, sent me. Two weeks. More work time than fun time but the fun time more…
Good evening Speedsters,Well, I just got back from The BUB Motorcycle Speed Trials at the Bonneville Salt Flats…WOW is all I can say.
