Here's your motorcycle link- Travis Pastrana was a Motocross champion and multi time x games gold, if he didnt knock himself out so many times he would have been a bigger legend in motorcycles.
Didn't look like that other guy had a co-driver, that's got to be a lot harder. It was foggy and raining at the top I think when he set this record on the first run, his first time through.Sick.

Y'all be careful out there. Lost 3 friends this year because of street bikes. I also had one break his back and almost paralyzed.

I'm very leary now to finish my cafe racer. I hardly ride moto anymore either.

I just realized that I hadn't updated my pics of the bike since a few additions.
Here's a couple newer pics. And before I forget. I did put over 20,000 miles on her this season!!

Anyone Into Vintage Bikes ??

Last summer my wife and I stayed in Springfield, Ma. for an unrelated function. On Sunday we decided to stop at the Museum of Springfield History, as they boast to have the largest Indian display (along with some other vintage bikes) in the world. And they didn't disappoint ! Also some great firearms displays there, since the museum dealt with things manufactured in Springfield.

Here are some of the bikes on display....
