Racing Highlights |
Watching my dad race when I was a
little kid. Camping with Larry Bergquist and his family and
watching my dad and Larry "play riding" (FAST!)
Cheering when Bergquist, Poteet, Pfutzenreuter or any one on
a Bultaco won a race overall. I was the youngest finisher in the
1976 Greenhorn Enduro. (15 years old)(no- I wasn't on a Bul, I
rode a Yamaha!)
Like most of you have already said, The days of riding in the
desert were the best of times. In the 70's- we lived in
Crestline. We could ride out of our garage at home- all the way
to Trona or Randsburg, turn around and go back to the spillway
in Hesperia, and up the hill into Lake Arrowhead and back over
to Crestline with hardly any paved roads... and do it in ONE
DAY!

Hobbies |
When I'm not running my heating
& air conditioning business, I write & record songs,
perform solo electric bass guitar and vocal. I've had some songs
played on the radio, but just regional, small time stuff. The
most money I've made with music so far- is a royalty check for
radio play of $2.48! |
| Do you
still ride motorcycles? |
Yes |
| If yes,
elaborate |
Summer of 2001, I bought a 1970
Bultaco 250 Pursang which I restored and I ride ocassionally in
vintage MX or even a modern bike cross country race up here in
Oregon. |
