My first two-stroke in the long line of dirt bikes.
I learned a lot from falling off of this motorcycle. Practice, practice, practice,.....
This was my first experience in owning any motor vehicle.
For it's time, it was a good running motorcycle. After the accident, it was replaced
with a 1955 Chevy. This motorcycle met a car to end it's life after I owned it about 4 months.

BSA shown above.
I put many miles on this bike, since I didn't own a car back then.
This Champion-framed OSSA was fun in the turns
on the flat tracks around Peoria, Illinois around 1976.
It handled the best of any motorcycle
I ever rode on a smooth track.
500 cc. Triumph-Rickman
This was my fourth Rickman
chassis motorcycle. What a beauty it was.
I can't imagine taking it around a moto-cross track
though.
It saw some dirt use, but mainly was just something to show off.
1978 Yamaha SR500
This bike is one of my current rides. I'm falling for singles, and this is the fourth SR500
I've owned. I find a nice one, then someone offers me good money for it, so I end up
letting it go. This one, hopefully, will stay in my garage for a long time.
