Little Fauss and Big Halsy

http://www.brooklynposters.com/little_fauss_big_halsy_lc.htm

1970 movie with Robert Redford and Lauren Hutton.  I think they race motorcross, but ultimately, they're trying to go road racing.  They get to Sears Point (now renamed Infineon Raceway) for the big race.

There's a long pan shot of a Yamaha TR2 (350cc Grand Prix bike).  A friend of mine owns the bike.  I tried to race it at Robeling Road in 1996.  Not the one in the link, but a Black and Red one in the movie.

The movie "Born to Ride" with John Stamos was definitely a "B" movie but I liked it alot.  Besides, he did all his own stunts on flat-head Harley's  :o

Have you seen screenshots of Torque?  It's going to suck just like Biker Boyz.

Now Faster, that's going to rule!

Hey now, Ice Cube is in it!  That lends almost as much credibility as Lawrence Fishburn.  

Stompin' walkin' in my big black boots... ;D

i just watched One Man's Island about the Isle of Man TT (www.onemansisland.com).  It was a real good documentary feature film.  My wife actually watched it with me... :D
