Cool vid. Jason would have been 40 on the 26th of this month. I'll be marking the occasion by riding down the track on which he made his competetive debut.

now that's downhilling. Why can't they run some races like that these days? Less technical - more out and out speed head to head. Or do they?? 4x doesn't do the same for me.

Legend. No other words necessary.

I go past his memorial where he was killed every time I ride in the Peaks. Makes me want to go faster each time. The Day in the Peaks ride was especially special as I was riding the same bike I rode when he was at his best. I did go a little bit faster downhill just for him (and his parents) that day.

Now if that isn't a good idea for a RetroBike ride I don't know what is.

I have the entire Reebok Eliminator. Unfortunately, it's on VHS.

They used to have a radar gun on the section of the course at Mont Tremblant (Quebec) that was nicknamed "the Freeway". Top speed of the day was usually about 107-108 kmh.

Short sleeves, lycra shorts and no body armour in sight. That's how to roll :shock:
