Right about 1954. In my mom's car waiting for the red light to change and a motorcycle comes blasting by and I loved the sound and the quickness of it. It was a Riverside 250cc I think. Still have a soft spot for a thumper.

Watching Evel Kinievel jump Mack trucks on Wide World of Sports! 6 years old. At age 8 we got a Kawasaki KV-75 for me and my big brother to share. Rode it 'till the frame broke, at age 16! Big brother has it in his garage. Dad's 81 Yammie 650 Special II is on it's way to me in Texas. Got it around the same time. It's only got 14K on the clock. Gonna fix her up right with some good bits.

I cant even begin to remember. I got my first Honda Mini Trail 50 when I was 8 but had already had 2 mini bikes nefore that, I think my dad made the decision I was going to love motorcycles, and he was right.

My uncle took me for my first ride when I was 3. He had a late 70s early 80 Suzuki 750. I still remember sitting on the tank speeding along at probably 10mph and him showing me to grab the bars and then he let go and said it was mine. Every chance since then no one has been able to keep me away from the nearest bike around. Used to get in trouble a lot for walking up to strangers bikes when I was little lol

Santa brought my dad a CT90 and my brother a CT70 in the late 1960's. After that, three words can explain it: On Any Sunday.
The rest is history!

Used to watch a TV show called Then Came Bronson. Before that, I didn't know people cruised around the country on bikes. Pretended my bicycle was a motorcycle and rode into town with friends to the Harley dealer. My folks found out; boy did I get in trouble. Neighbors had mini-bikes. It just kind of grew on me. Bought a Honda 175 and knew that it was something I would always enjoy.

I was three or four and I stayed with my aunt & uncle every summer, my uncle always had a bike or two, he would set me on the tank while he cruised to the gas station a few miles from their house. Very good memories, I've been a motorcycle junkie since.
