The Track!!!
Mel, Tommy and I visited Milwaukee back in May to look at this sickly little Volley Ball Beach on the shores of Lake Michigan.... The area looked pretty cool, but the sand was soft and the whole idea seemed far fetched.... Build an Oval track and Race on this beach for H-D's 115th Anniversary... after surveying the beach, there was talk of just doing a drag race like we do at TROG... but I said No way... we gotta do an oval track and it has to be as big as possible!
I got out there on Warren's 45 Flathead Dirt Tracker which he graciously donated to the cause and gave the beach a try... my opinion... This was fuckin' Doable!!!!
Tommy and his crew went back in September and built this track in 3 days before the race... and the rest is history!!!!
Hanging out in Milwaukee...
Unloaded and ready to roll...
Getting a jump on things...
Oilers...
With Brian Charles... after I ran over his head in turn 4... he's OK
Getting around the outside...
Oops... forgot my helmet...
Found it... yes it was raining...
Lost again... goofing around the track with Mel...
With my buddy Hiro from TT and Co.
Cruising Milwaukee in the evenings...
