Good eye! Actually was first time visiting even though I'm a native and worked in Cartersville for 2+ years.

Got a brick on the walk in my name... We helped restore the bridge

1975 Italjet 50cc when I was 7. That little sucker would fly! My Mom STILL hasn't forgiven my Dad.

Next was a 77 Yamaha Enduro 100. I STILL haven't told my parents some of the stuff I did on that one.

In 1983 my dad and I put a deposit on a new Honda XR500. My mom put her foot down on that one. I ended up having to drop back to an XR200 and my mom was probably right.

Started on a 1992/93 CBR600 F2 Streetfighter so that i could drop it without getting upset. Also taught me a lot about working on bikes. Stupid carburetors.

Still aint owned one. My wife says i cant because I have Charlie Brown luck. But I would really like an orange over black Nightster and or one of those retro looking Triumph 800 Bonnevilles.

my very first race bike

Man there was a 'gang' of us that road around the neighborhood. 4 of us had Yamaha Enduro 100's (covering 3 different model years). One kid had a YZ80 and the one 'fat kid' had an RM80. You'd "think" that would have been a disadvantage as he probably was pushing double the weight of some of us. That RM would smoke all of us every single time!
