1969

[Big Dave]

I've done grande dissertations on Easy Rider before.

Minus:
Class A drug dealers.
Those bikes had a range of 60 miles.
Give me a break with the hippies.
Billy is a total putz.
Ends with senseless double murder.

Plus:
The opening Born to be Wild ride sequence. An all-time cinematic highlight. It goes down hill from there.
Nicholson.
The Bikes.
Tits.

On Any Sunday is unique. First Documentary that enjoyed a big box office? That I can recall anyhoo.

1971 though.

Yep your right Dave

Ha.. I still remember going to the movie with my mates with our trail bikes parked up in a row outside the theatre in town.

Did you keep the box it came in?

Errrrrr.... two photos taken in 1969. Both of me and one is bloody excruciating, but never mind - all part of history

One taken at the Isle of Man TT on my 1955 Tiger 100. Cord jeans, suede boots, green cardy and orange T shirt. The world's worst dresser and nothing's changed much

The other taken at Santa Pod dragstrip, UK on my supercharged Triumph. Once a Triumph fan, always a Triumph fan

The box was alright but it's life support system was pretty rooted so I got rid of it.

Thanks, but the complete opposite of what my wife thinks

I watched it once. Thought it was crap.

I thought easy rider was quite good, especially compared to the other motorcycle movies I can think of (biker boys and torque immediately come to mind) I liked the end too, similar to the ending of vanishing point (possibly the greatest car chase film ever made)

Probably played with it too much

Hahaha - thanks. Nope, she was on holiday in the IOM from Scotland (it only lasted a few days-probably appalled by my dress sense). Got married 3 years later and celebrated our 41st anniversary just over a month ago. Very tolerant woman is my wife, even though the thumbprint on my forehead is clearly visible
