Got a flyer yesterday advertising Pukekohe Classic Festival 2009 featuring Kevin Schwantz (not riding a RGV 500 unfortunately)but the next best thing,
a Manx Norton.The man is a true legend of the sport and good on the organisers for getting him over here.
I can't wait to see THE MAN live in action.

Kevin Schwantz in his heyday was my hero. All elbows and knees. Ruben Xaus's riding "style" reminds me a bit of Kevin.

He's thrashing it for more than it's worth, seeing it was a Suzuki Summerfest special...
