    Next info project - famous bikers.

    The greatest kiwi racer thing came together quite well - thanks everyone who put in. Early days in a close race:

    http://www.kiwirider.co.nz/greats/kiwigreats.html


    Next I'd like to try and compile is a list of famous people - fictitious or real - and their motorcycles.

    I've got images for

    Fonzie - Triumph and Sportster
    Eastwood & Locke - Chopper
    McQueen - Triumph
    Munro - Indian
    Margaret - Triumph
    and a few others.

    Any suggestions: An image is good - a name and a bike type just as good.

    To be old and wise, first you must be young and stupid.

    Brando (Wild Bunch - Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - also a great band).

    Clark Gable:



    Jason Lee:



    Jay Leno:



    Tom Cruse (arsehole):



    Ann Margaret:

    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Still looking for Kiwi stuff.

    This'll do in the meantime:

    Is there some celebrity thing about confederate bikes? And if it can be fictional, can you pic ghost rider? Not the Swedish guy, the guy in a lot of paintings on the harley riding alongside a cowboy on a horse, and variations of it.

    only Kiwi's that spring to mind at the moment are

    Dr Roger Freeth- who went on to probably be more famous for his rally car racing than bike racing.

    Gareth Morgan- Economist, and Author of silk riders book along with his wife Jo.

    Sorry haven't got any pictures of them.

    >>Tom Cruse (arsehole):<<

    Most successful people I look at and think - I'd like some of whatever they are on - I see Tom on TV and hope I don't catch whatever it is.
