    My words exactly Ken , WOW.
    What I love about hill climbing is the 2nd and 3rd generations that continue to compete as a team. Imagine a champion climber is your dad retired , building , tuning and watching you do well what he loved and his dad. I love it and have to go see one. Loved that front fender on that Harley. I hear ya.

      I've been riding bikes off and on 45 years, sleds, every winter for 25. Not so much with bikes but with sledding I get anxiety, butterflies in the stomach as I'm putting on my gear, and the drive to where we unload. Once I'm on and pull the trigger it all goes away. It's nice to still get the rush from the anticipation of the coming excitement after all those years.
